FOXBOROUGH, MA - The New England Patriots have introduced their flagship entry in the Nike Rivalries uniform series. Named the "Nor'Easter," this moody alternate jersey will make its debut in Week 11, when the Patriots host the Jets under the lights at Gillette Stadium.
A Design Forged in Coastal Storms
The uniform wraps the Patriots' identity in a deep Storm Blue base-weathered, rugged, and evoking the raw edge of New England's famous nor'easter storms. It's a visual nod to the essence of the region and the perseverance of its people.
Subtle Nods That Hit the Mark
-
Six red stars along the neckline represent both the six states of New England and the franchise's six Super Bowl titles.
-
The "NE" shoulder patch-inspired by nautical lettering and compass aesthetics-reinforces the region's maritime heritage and connection to its communities.
- Numbers lean into 1990s typography for a nod to the team's storied past, while subtle red details reference the original Patriots color palette.
Rivalry Spotlight
The "Nor'Easter" will be worn only once this season-in one of the most heated matchups of the division, Patriots vs. Jets-before becoming part of a three-year uniform rotation.
The Final Whistle
The "Nor'Easter" isn't just an alternate jersey-it's a visual storm packed with meaning. From its storm-blue tone to the nautical details and symbolic stars, every element taps into New England's landscape, history, and grit. Worn in a primetime rivalry matchup, this uniform ensures the Patriots look like home-on the field and in spirit.
