Hockey Canada's new 100th anniversary uniforms for 2014-15


Recommended Posts

Out of the whole jersey, I like the 100 anniversary patch the most. The rest of the jersey looks like those run of the mill "jerseys" or sweatshirts various Canadian big-box stores sell during the Olympics and whatnot.

The overall design fits the movement Nike is trying to put out - big, bold standard font, fake shiny, pressed on laces, etc, so in that sense, I am not overly surprised.

I'll reserve some judgement until I see real press photos versus renders.

I agree with this. I normally like simple jerseys (Canada's jerseys at the 2010 Olympics looked awesome) but there's a fine line between simple and generic and I feel like this crosses it, possibly because every single Nike jersey has a similar concept. Looks like it came from Walmart.

Don't like the Nike logo being so central, why not at the corner on the jersey like every other kind?

This.

It's like "notice me! notice me! I'm a corporate whore!"

The nike swoosh on the front is almost the same size as the Canadian patch... what's that say?

Is this more about Canada and hockey? or making Nike money.... :rolleyes:

I like the jerseys. The red ones look better then the whites in my opinion.

The 100th anniversary patch, the lettering is similar to what the Habs used for their 100th year as well.

The simplicity is nice. Will definitely be picking one up.

Not a fan. Only team that can pull off the diagonal lettering like this is the Rangers - and that is because they have used it that style since the beginning of time.

I am also not a fan on incorporating black into our main jerseys. Red and white is how it should be. Black third jerseys are better for Canada anyways.

The shoulders are what I'm against. It doesn't match the rest of the jersey.

Always been a fan of the 2002 and 2010 jerseys (like the '02 ones more for the logo). It's nice and reliable, and everything fits together well. For me, the red and white should be the main colors, while black serves to add accent but shouldn't be too prevalent.
