NY Logos and Brands
The abbreviation NY, standing for New York, connects the brands in this section through a two-letter symbol that has become one of the most replicated in global culture. The intertwined N and Y on New York Yankees caps, designed by Tiffany & Co. in 1877 and popularized by Jay-Z, are probably the most famous sports monogram in history. The New York Giants, New York Mets, New York Islanders, and New York Rangers wear variations of the New York abbreviation on their uniforms. Outside of sports, New York is associated with the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the NYPD, and its cultural scene.
