Do you have the perfect idea for an Islanders third jersey? Now’s your chance to design the newest one.

The New York Islanders are inviting fans to “make history” by creating the team’s next alternate sweater. According to the organization, it marks the first time in NHL history that a franchise has turned to its fanbase to design an official team jersey.

To help bring those ideas to life, the Islanders launched an online design tool on Wednesday featuring historic logos and patches, team fonts, and a wide range of color options.

Fans can create and submit their designs directly through the platform.

Submissions will be accepted through July 24. After the deadline, a team committee will review the entries and select five finalists.

Those five designs will then advance to a public online vote in early August, giving fans a chance to help choose the winner.

The winning design will become the Islanders’ official third jersey for the 2027-28 season.

Its creator will also receive a team-signed jersey and tickets to a game during the 2027-28 season to see their design make its on-ice debut.

"Islanders fans are among the most passionate in all of sports, and their emotional investment is the heartbeat of this franchise," said Kelly Cheeseman, President of Business Operations for the Islanders and UBS Arena. "With this contest, we are breaking down traditional boundaries and inviting Isles Nation directly into the design room to do something that has never been done before in our league. Our Third Jersey will truly belong to the fans, born from their passion and chosen by their voice."
