USA Hockey unveiled three Nike jerseys Wednesday that its 2018 Olympic and Paralympic teams will wear during the upcoming games in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
Here we see a white "home" jersey, a blue "away" jersey and an old royal third jersey.
The jerseys are being touted as "the fastest looking and brightest jerseys ever during (America's) quest to win gold in the 2018 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games."
As described by USA Hockey, jersey highlights include:
- The inspirational slogan of Land of the Free - Home of the Brave hidden in the back neck of the jersey
- Injected silicone molds make the trim pop
- Graphic on the sleeve was inspired by bald eagle feathers and represents the theme of fluid force
- The flicker film (rather than heavy twill) base for the crest and numbers increases vibrancy and sparkles under arena lights.
