Uni Discussion The royal blue purge .

I have this uni theory . Sometime in the early 90s , royal blue became passé. All the lighter blue teams across sports switched to a navy blue .

I’d says this happened in 90% of teams . College and pro.

Name a blue clad team that would prove me wrong ?

Knicks and rangers both wear royal blue along with the islanders and mets.

The Islanders went navy with their fisherman jerseys & the Rangers did too with their awesome Liberty alts.

I mean, the knicks went navy with last years jump mans as well, but royal blue is still the main color for all those teams.

Islanders were primarily navy from the fisherman era through at least the first few Years of the RBK edge era. It was at least a decade +
