As the New York Yankees prepare for their anticipated postseason appearance, the team has partnered with athleticwear company Sportiqe to launch a special collection celebrating one of the city’s most iconic musicians. The Billy Joel x New York Yankees line features apparel including t-shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies that blend the legendary performer’s lyrics with classic Yankees imagery.
The collection prominently showcases Joel’s famous “New York State of Mind” lyric across multiple pieces, paired with the team’s signature navy blue logo. Additionally, a vintage-inspired t-shirt commemorates Joel’s historic 1990 sold-out concerts at Yankee Stadium, which were later released as a bestselling live album. Joel, a Bronx native, has long maintained ties to the Yankees organization throughout his distinguished music career.
The merchandise ranges in price from $52 to $109, with women’s sizes available in small through extra-large and unisex options spanning extra-small to 3XL. While Joel is traditionally known as a Mets supporter—highlighted by his performances at Shea Stadium and multiple World Series appearances—Sportiqe has created a companion collection celebrating his connection to that team as well. The Yankees currently hold the first wild-card position in the American League entering the postseason.
