Participants in the 2026 New York City Marathon will receive an official New Balance long-sleeve shirt as part of their race package. This year’s race will take place on November 1 and will mark the 55th edition of the New York City Marathon.
The design celebrates both the city and the event. The navy-blue shirt features a colourful graphic inspired by New York City, along with the race name and the date November 1, 2026. The left sleeve carries an orange commemorative print marking 50 years of the marathon course running through all five boroughs.
