JJ Anderes 723 Posted October 27, 2017 Hey folks! So this will be my first series here in about six months. I haven't been creating concepts as much during the summer, but now that hockey's back, I figured it was time to continue. This series is focused on the 2023-24 NHL season, the year after Adidas' jersey contract expires. With Adidas not willing to extend their contract, Nike becomes the official NHL uniform supplier. Along with the switch, the NHL decides to lose the traditional home/away jerseys and replace them with a new system that mimics the NBA's new 4-jersey system. Each team will now have four jerseys to choose from for each game: FREEZE: The team's white jersey. CLASH: The team's colored jersey that closely resembles the FREEZE uniform. STORM: This will be the team's alternate jersey, using a dark color, and completely lacking white. PRIDE: This jersey can be any color. It reflects both the history of the city and of the team itself. The home team will choose the jersey they want to wear, and the away team will select one that doesn't closely match that of the home team. With that in mind, here is the first team! **************** CALGARY FLAMES FREEZE/CLASH: These uniforms bear a striping pattern similar to their alternate jersey from 2013-16 seasons, while the logo remains the same. The number font is also changed. ALTERNATE: The striping is similar to Calgary's early uniforms. For the first time since 2006, the team will have a black jersey. PRIDE: The overall design is based of of the WHA Calgary Cowboys' uniform, though it doesn't match completely. Thoughts? Comments? Suggestions? Leave it below! 16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CheeseBurger22 135 Posted October 27, 2017 This is pretty cool! I love the idea with the 4 jersey system and I love that black jersey! Nice job 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DTConcepts 1,928 Posted October 27, 2017 Really interesting and good design, I think it's really well executed too! Your works' always super high quality, and I'm glad to see you posting again! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chcarlson23 1,086 Posted October 27, 2017 These look great! The only thing that I would change though, is the logo and yoke of the red jersey... I think a black yoke and logo would balance out the colors better... Very excited for this series! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hendocfc 452 Posted October 27, 2017 For some very peculiar reason,this has a very "mid 2000s Nike" vibe about it,for me at least... I'm intrigued enough to say I'll be following this thread. Closely. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Has2916 1 Posted October 28, 2017 This sounds like it's going to be an awesome series! I really like all of the jerseys. Maybe a very traditional and standard block font would be better on the Pride jersey? Also are the 6 and the 8 different shades of black on the Storm jersey? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niiklaz 22 Posted October 28, 2017 This is a great idea. Well done on the execution as well. Will be interesting to what you will come up with next! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Point1 384 Posted October 28, 2017 Love the idea and execution. I'd be interested to see how the PRIDE jersey looks with gold instead of white though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the Flames should minimize their use of black and emphasize red and yellow...and yet I love your black alt. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoE38 1,255 Posted October 28, 2017 Amazing start to what should be an equally amazing series! The four jersey system is definitely a unique idea for the NHL, and you nail all of them. Fantastic Work. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhysicalGraffiti 63 Posted October 30, 2017 Diggin the Flames. Looking forward to more. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJ Anderes 723 Posted November 2, 2017 COLORADO AVALANCHE I knew this would be a hard team to change, considering the popularity of the new jerseys, so I decided to get it out of the way early. FREEZE/CLASH: I decided to go with the navy blue from the Reebok alternate jerseys. I also changed the logo and brightened the shade of burgundy, STORM: Pretty similar, different logo, silver instead of white. PRIDE: This is a combination of the old Rockies uniforms and the colorado state flag. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bruins 1,233 Posted November 2, 2017 These look amazing! Pretty incredible how unique you were able to make a red and blue team too. One little blooper is the back shoulder piping on the storm jersey is white. Cant wait to see more! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ahowe6464 287 Posted November 2, 2017 Colorado is great. Also just pointing out that the piping on the back of the storm jersey is white, too. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJ Anderes 723 Posted November 11, 2017 BOSTON BRUINS FREEZE/CLASH: Throwing it back to the 1950's, with the older logo and vintage striping that closely resemble the team's older uniforms, yet not matching them completely. STORM: Took the striping from their most recent Winter Classic jersey. PRIDE: Brown version of their Winter Classic jersey. Also showing the first teaser for the first major event I'm doing... Logos and jerseys will come after team #4 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raptorman415 174 Posted November 11, 2017 Love Boston’s look. Colorado’s pride uniform is magnificent. And Calgary’s black uniform is beautiful. Keep it up. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
