The long awaited arrival of the RBK Gamewear hockey jerseys is finally here. These jerseys are modeled after the RBK EDGE uniform that all NHL teams are currently wearing. Hi-Tech meets hockey for these blanks - you have the same 100% polyester material but what you get with the Gamewear is wave knit reversed mesh that ventilates moisture and an ultra fresh antimicrobial treatment. The collar is the same as the Pros wear with the EDGE with the cut out collar / V insert. The topstitch seam and piping along with the front and back RBK vector logo which is embroidered makes this blank NHL gamewear jersey the leader of the pack.
The NHL Winter Classic for 2009 will be at the friendly confines of Wrigley Field. It's safe to assume both teams will be wearing vintage hockey jerseys for the special game. Which classic jerseys will Chicago and Detroit wear? Will the NHL have RBK do a special vintage "new look retro design" jersey for both Chicago and Detroit? The Chicago Blackhawks have a bit more to choose from since coming into the league than Detroit who still wear the basic red / white since the 1930's. The Wings have never had a jersey with a lace neck while Chicago has. One idea would be to have both teams wear the same jerseys from when the Blackhawks last won the cup in 1961 vs Detroit. For the first time since 1950, two American based teams competed for the Stanley Cup and it was the Chicago Black Hawks beating the Detroit Red Wings four games to two. The only problem with this theory is nothing has really changed since 1961 with either teams jerseys. Here is a list of both Chicago and Detroit's vintage jerseys from the past. Once the jerseys are available they will be added to our RBK line of jerseys here at Hockey Jerseys Direct
