EE Basic Skyline Short New York — verified details
This is the EE Basic Skyline Short New York, verified by our eebasketballshorts.com team through a 7-step check. You get premium double-layer mesh, the NY skyline motif, and the embroidered EE mark in classic placement. Fit is the familiar EE athletic cut with a 5–5.5 inch inseam and mid-rise waistband. I tested the pair for fabric weight, stitch quality, and color accuracy before listing.
What does the New York skyline edition look like?
You get a blue base with the New York skyline wrapped across the shell, clean and sharp with no banding. The EE crest is satin-stitched, not printed, with tight edges and consistent density. Side taping is rib-knit with even width from hip to hem, and the hems sit straight with clean bar-tacks at the vents. Hand-feel is smooth outside and softly cushioned inside thanks to the double mesh.
Size and Fit
Stay true to size for a classic EE drape that sits just above the knee on most builds. The waistband is secure without pinch, and the leg has easy room for movement. If you want extra length and a looser thigh, go up one size. I measured flat to confirm the fit lines up with our standard EE block.

How does it compare to the Black Skyline?
Both Skyline versions use the same classic EE block and mesh, but the mood differs. New York Blue reads sport-classic and bright; Black Skyline is more low-key and street. Embroidery placement and stitch type match on both. Pick Blue for pop, Black for stealth.

Shipping & Returns
We dispatch fast within the U.S. with tracked service and secure, corner-guard packaging. Each order includes a QC photo log tied to your number. Returns are accepted in unworn condition within the stated window and matched against our outbound measurements and photos. If we miss a defect, we cover the return once confirmed by our verification stack.
Product Care
Wash cool at 30°C, inside-out, and air-dry flat. Skip fabric softener on double-mesh to keep rebound and shape. Use steam at a distance to remove creases; avoid direct ironing on embroidery. Store folded with the logo facing out to prevent imprint marks.
Purchase Protection
We protect qualifying orders so you can shop confidently on eebasketballshorts.com. You are covered if the item materially differs from its description in color, condition, fabric, or measurements; if the wrong item arrives; or if we cannot verify authenticity. Our team resolves eligible claims using the recorded QC photos, label scans, and measurement sheets linked to your order.

Style notes from my wear-test
I paired the New York Blue skyline with a white heavyweight tee to let the print breathe. Neutral sneakers keep the focus on the leg graphic. The mesh stayed light with no cling during a warm-day walk. Color held true against a 5500K light check in our studio.
