Sebastien Ibeagha, a Nigerian-American soccer player, not only plays center-back for New York City FC in Major League Soccer, but he also loves clothes, draws exceptionally well and considers himself a music enthusiast. Ibegaha operates as a modern day Renaissance man who cannot be beholden to any one thing as his eclectic interests show itself with the gear he sports and the products he cops. As both a leader and a competitor at the highest level, Ibegaha’s life and career has many facets, including the intersection of fashion and sports, which comes to a heel with the 2021-22 NYCFC Primary Kit, also known as the Bronx Blue Kit.
In the video above, Ibeagha shows us his essentials that he travels with for games, including the 2021 Bronx Blue Kit. His other go-tos include Brain Dead sunglasses (which is his first Brain Dead piece — an important thing to note), his Swarovski bracelets and Clocks And Colours rings. Other accessories reveal personal touches, like his Christian Van Sant watch that reminds him of his dad’s old watches and a Playsafe mouthpiece with Nigerian colors that let him rep his home when he’s out on the field. Additionally, Ibeagha has Apple AirPods, which he uses to play Burna Boy to get himself psyched up before a game and an iPad Pro with the Apple Pen that allows him to sketch and draw during his down time. And finally, a game day staple: The 2021-22 NYCFC Primary Kit — A.K.A. the Bronx Blue Kit — features tonal stripes with subtle but striking club emblems that mimic an embossed texture.
