NEW ERA DROPS ITS "FOREVER NEW YORK" FW24 COLLECTION IN COLLABORATION WITH THE NFL

Campaign Creative Directed By Pro BMX Athlete Nigel Sylvester Pays Homage to Iconic New York Natives and Street Style

BUFFALO, N.Y., PRNewswire -- New Era Cap LLC, the international sports and lifestyle brand, announced its FW24 collection featuring the "Forever New York" campaign with the NFL just in time for NFL Kickoff taking place on Sept. 5. Queens native and professional BMX athlete Nigel Sylvester, was tapped to creative direct and curate the fashion-forward looks. Inspired by his roots and connection to the Big Apple, Sylvester's energetic style as a tastemaker at the intersection of sports and fashion brings forth this first of its kind campaign as the creative advisor sourcing talent and overall look of the campaign. All 32 teams in the league are represented in the full apparel line, featuring hats, hoodies and tees including the NY Giants and the NY Jets.

Ahead of its official debut, Sylvester enlisted iconic New Yorkers to serve as the lead models for the campaign with a nod to the New York Giants and the New York Jets. Sylvester adds a distinct flair to the pieces that blend street fashion with high-end styling for an New York centric look and feel. Rapper and Harlem, NY native Dave East, fellow Queens native, world-renowned jeweler Greg Yuna and radio producer Scottie Beam from the Bronx are just a few of Sylvester's inner circle featured in the campaign.

This partnership, featuring NFL, reunites long-time collaborators New Era and Nigel Sylvester, who first worked together in 2017 and have since launched several successful brand campaigns.

"Working with Nigel once again allows us to tap into his unique vision as both a creative and athlete who fuses artistry with functionality," said Mark Maidment, SVP of Brand and Marketing at New Era. "This campaign reaffirms our dedication to sports culture and passion for innovative design to those seeking an elevated style that feels disruptive and authentic to individual expression."

"Creative freedom to push the boundaries of sport, art, and fashion has inspired me for years throughout my journey as an unconventional athlete in the world of sport. As a creative advisor for this campaign, I personally selected these individuals for what they represent and for their deep connection and impact in their respective communities here in the city." Sylvester said.
