The 2017 Team Canada Nike Hockey Jersey is the lightest one ever worn at the IIHF tournament. Considering the sports company’s aim to continually push boundaries and enhance athlete’s performances, it is only natural that Nike strove to break a record of sorts. Using Nike Swift technology to achieve this impressive design, the jersey specifically enhances mobility while minimizing distractions for fast and physical play.
Debuted during the Hockey Canada National Teams’ Summer Showcase, the 2017 Team Canada Nike Hockey Jersey will be worn by the men’s, women’s, junior and national sledge hockey teams representing Canada. Boasting a Canada 150 logo, patriotism exudes via a series of four diamonds representing the country’s four original provinces to form the iconic Maple Leaf.
