Team Canada Olympic Hockey Jersey Receives Mixed Reactions
Team Canada has revealed its new uniforms for the 2026 Winter Olympic Games in Milano Cortina, set to begin in February. With just a few months left until the games, Hockey Canada showcased two fresh designs — the classic white-and-red look and a new red-and-black version.
“Every stitch reflects our resilience, pride and belonging, forged through time and pressure,”
wrote Hockey Canada in a social media post featuring close-ups of the new gear, calling the uniform “a symbol forged in ice.”
The maple leaf emblem, displayed in red on the white jersey and black on the red one, was designed to resemble an “unbreakable diamond.” According to Hockey Canada, this symbolizes “the unassailable nature” of both the gem and the nation’s enduring spirit.
Replica jerseys are now available for purchase on Hockey Canada’s official website. A portion of the proceeds will fund the development of winter sports programs across Canada.
