Flyers’ New Uniforms Released
The Flyers have unveiled their new uniforms with a burnt orange look.
The changes are the first alterations to the team’s primary home and away uniforms since 2010.
From the Flyers’ website:
The club collaborated with the NHL’s League-wide uniform partner, adidas, to bring the design to life. Many key stakeholders across the organization including Flyers season ticket members, Flyers alumni and broadcasters were consulted throughout the process. To honor its tradition while carving out a new era for the franchise, the Flyers are combining notable components of its past jerseys to form a modern adaptation of its storied history.
The Flyers released a 1-minute, 57-second video as part of the unveiling.
“These burnt orange sweaters are one of the most iconic symbols of Flyers hockey,” President of Hockey Operations Keith Jones said in a statement. “There’s no doubt that this look is known throughout the NHL and uniquely beloved by our fans because it brings to life one of the most important parts of our rebuild – it honors our past while we continue to forge a new path forward.”
Some highlights: The striping across the shoulders and down the arms has been widened to “full encapsulate each player’s numbers.” The numbers on the sleeves revert to a single-color design, looking back to the original 1969-70 uniforms. The black horizontal stripe at the bottom of the jersey has been moved down to sit flush with the black pants, to represent the uniforms introduced in 1982.
Independence Blue Cross was announced as the first official home jersey patch partner.
Respect the past. Represent the future.
