Meet the Best: Why Our Mets Jerseys Stand Out from the Crowd?

We deliver professional-grade looks and performance with the freedom to make it uniquely yours, all backed by a 6-Month Manufacturer Warranty.

Built for the Boroughs: Quality That Lasts

We don’t just make claims; we provide proof of our commitment to excellence. We know a Mets jersey carries the hopes of Queens (and beyond!), and it should be built to withstand every thrilling home run and playoff push.

• Premium Fabric Options: Choose your ideal game-day feel. Our 100D hole cloth (160GSM) is a classic, durable fabric offering excellent breathability, perfect for those summer days at Citi Field. For a lighter, more modern aesthetic, our Mesh cloth (170GSM) provides an ultra-lightweight, athletic fit, engineered for maximum movement and comfort. Both fabrics utilize advanced moisture-wicking technology to keep you cool, dry, and comfortable, whether you’re taking the 7 train or watching from home.
• Vibrant, Unstoppable Graphics: The Mets’ distinctive Royal Blue and Orange deserve to pop. We use industry-leading FullPrint+ Sublimation technology to ensure these iconic colors and logos are as sharp and enduring as a Seaver fastball. This process fuses the ink directly into the fibers of the fabric itself. Unlike screen-printing or heat-pressed tackle twill that can crack, peel, and fade, our sublimation graphics are permanent. The classic scripts, the skyline logo, your custom name, and numbers will remain vibrant wash after wash, season after season.
• Pro-Level Construction: Every jersey is built with precision and care, honoring the team’s clean aesthetic. The Custom Nameplate Feature allows you to add any player name or personal branding for a clean, professional look, stitched securely for a premium finish. This is combined with reinforced, precision stitching at every seam and classic button-front styling, striking the perfect balance between authenticity and durability. This jersey is crafted to be a cherished part of your Mets collection.

Your Custom New York Mets Jerseys Questions, Answered!

How long does delivery take for a custom jersey?

Since each jersey is custom-made to order, production and delivery time typically takes about 10–15 days. This ensures we craft your jersey with the care and quality Amazin’ fans expect. You will receive a tracking number as soon as your unique jersey is shipped.

What makes your jersey quality durable enough for Mets fans?

Our quality stems from advanced dye-sublimation and premium fabrics (100D hole cloth or Mesh). The ink becomes part of the fabric, meaning the iconic Mets logos, scripts, pinstripes, and your custom details won’t crack, peel, or fade, standing strong through every game. Reinforced stitching ensures it holds up season after season.

How should I care for my custom Mets jersey?

To keep the royal blue and orange looking vibrant, turn the jersey inside out and machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle. Hang drying is strongly recommended to preserve the fabric’s shape and graphic integrity. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, ironing the design, or dry cleaning.

Will the Mets script or my custom numbers peel off after washing?

Never. Our sublimation process permanently fuses these iconic elements into the fabric. Unlike jerseys with heat-pressed elements, the classic scripts, skyline logo, numbers, and your custom name become part of the material itself, guaranteeing they won’t crack, peel, or fade, maintaining that timeless Mets look.

How do I choose the right size?

We highly recommend consulting our detailed size chart, available on each product page. Getting the size right is crucial for custom orders. You can read more at Size Guide for exact chest and length measurements to ensure the perfect fit for representing the Mets at Citi Field or anywhere else.

Ya Gotta Believe: A History of the New York Mets

The New York Mets were born out of the departure of New York’s two previous National League teams, the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants, who both moved to California after the 1957 season. To fill the void and bring NL baseball back to the city, the New York Metropolitan Baseball Club, Inc. (shortened to Mets) was established as an expansion franchise in 1962.

Playing initially at the Polo Grounds before moving into Shea Stadium in 1964 (and later Citi Field in 2009), the Mets adopted Royal Blue (from the Dodgers) and Orange (from the Giants) as their primary colors, symbolically inheriting the mantle of NL baseball in New York. The cap logo featured an orange interlocking “NY,” distinct from the Yankees’ version.

The early Mets teams were famously inept, setting a modern MLB record for losses in their inaugural season (40-120). However, this lovable loser image endeared them to many fans. The franchise’s trajectory changed dramatically in 1969. Led by Hall of Fame pitcher Tom Seaver and manager Gil Hodges, the “Miracle Mets” stunned the baseball world by surging from behind to win the NL East, sweep the Atlanta Braves in the first-ever NLCS, and defeat the heavily favored Baltimore Orioles in the World Series, capturing their first championship in one of baseball’s greatest underdog stories.

The Mets returned to the World Series in 1973 (“Ya Gotta Believe” era) but lost. The franchise reached its next peak in the mid-1980s. The 1986 Mets, a famously talented and raucous team featuring stars like Dwight Gooden, Darryl Strawberry, Keith Hernandez, and Gary Carter, dominated the regular season and won a dramatic, unforgettable World Series against the Boston Red Sox in seven games.

The team reached the World Series again in 2000 (the “Subway Series” against the Yankees) and 2015, losing both times. Despite periods of struggle, the Mets maintain a large, passionate fanbase known for its unwavering loyalty and belief. They have won two World Series championships (1969, 1986) and five National League pennants.

Amazin’ Finishes: Mets’ Notable Championships

Threads of Queens: The Evolution of Mets Style

The New York Mets’ uniform history is a tale deeply rooted in New York baseball tradition, yet with its own distinct and memorable chapters. It begins with the symbolic adoption of Dodger Blue and Giant Orange, establishing a clean, classic look with pinstripes almost immediately. The journey includes the bold, distinctive “racing stripes” of the championship 80s, a controversial but popular foray into black alternates during the Piazza era, and ultimately, a celebrated return to the timeless pinstripes and classic scripts that define the team today. From Shea Stadium pullovers to Citi Field button-downs, the Mets’ look has always been unmistakably Queens.

1962–1970s — The Original Pinstripes & Miracle Mets

• Jersey types: Home (White Pinstripes), Away (Gray) – Button-downs
• Notable features: Established the core look. Royal Blue and Orange colors. Home whites featured blue pinstripes and the classic script “Mets” in blue outlined in orange, underlined with a swoosh. Away grays featured block “NEW YORK” in blue outlined in orange. The cap was blue with the orange interlocking “NY”. The iconic skyline logo patch appeared on the sleeve.
• Why it matters: This is the uniform of the franchise’s birth and its most improbable triumph—the 1969 “Miracle Mets” World Series. It was worn by “The Franchise,” Tom Seaver, and legends like Jerry Koosman and Cleon Jones. It remains the foundational Mets aesthetic.

1978–1990 — The Racing Stripe & ’86 Champs Era

• Jersey types: Home (White Pinstripes), Away (Gray/Blue) – Pullovers
• Notable features (Major Change): Switched to pullover jerseys (no buttons). Introduced the distinctive “racing stripes”—thin blue and orange stripes running down the sides from the underarm and on the sleeve cuffs. Home pinstripes remained. Away jerseys were typically gray (sometimes powder blue briefly) with script “New York.” The cap remained the blue/orange “NY.”
• Why it matters: This bold look is synonymous with the Mets’ second golden era. It’s the uniform of the dominant 1986 World Series champions, featuring Dwight Gooden, Darryl Strawberry, Keith Hernandez, and Gary Carter. The racing stripes are a beloved element for fans of this era.

1991–1994 — Transition & Understated Swoosh

• Jersey types: Home (White Pinstripes), Away (Gray) – Button-downs
• Notable features: Returned to traditional button-down jerseys. Removed the racing stripes. Kept the script “Mets” (home) and “New York” (away), but the underline swoosh became much thinner and less pronounced, sometimes having a “tail.”
• Why it matters: A short-lived, cleaner look bridging the gap between the 80s style and the next major change.

1995–2011 — Black Added & Piazza Era

• Jersey types: Home (White Pinstripes), Away (Gray), Alternates (Black, White Solid)
• Notable features (Major Change): Black was added as a primary alternate color and drop shadow on lettering. Introduced popular black alternate jerseys (both with “Mets” and “New York” scripts). Also used solid white home alternates (no pinstripes). Road grays sometimes featured “NEW YORK” in a bolder, non-script font. Pinstripes remained on the primary home whites.
• Why it matters: This look defined the era of Hall of Fame catcher Mike Piazza and the 2000 Subway Series (NL Pennant). The black jerseys became extremely popular and synonymous with this successful period, though controversial among traditionalists.

2012–Present — Return to Classic Blue & Orange Focus

• Jersey types: Home (White Pinstripes), Away (Gray), Alternates (Royal Blue, Black), City Connect
• Notable features: A deliberate return to the classic Blue and Orange aesthetic, phasing out black drop shadows on primary uniforms. Home pinstripes and away grays resemble the original 1960s look more closely, with cleaner scripts. Royal blue alternate jerseys (home and away versions) became prominent. Black alternates remain but are used less frequently. The City Connect uniform features dark gray jerseys with “NYC” in the Mets’ classic font, inspired by subway iconography.

• Why it matters: Represents a successful blend of tradition and modern options. It’s the look of the 2015 NL Pennant run featuring David Wright and Daniel Murphy, and the current era led by Pete Alonso and Francisco Lindor.
