The NHL's Reverse Retro jerseys were a sensation two years ago, creating significant sales and conversation among hockey fans. Adidas felt the pressure of creating a sequel to that blockbuster with its 2022-23 season retro sweaters.
"How many amazing remix combinations are out there?" said Dan Near, senior director at adidas hockey. "We spent a lot of time debating about whether the franchise should evolve into something else or is this a sequel. We went with the latter."
Like any sequel, there are a few differences from the original. The 32 new Reverse Retro jerseys feature more white sweaters than the 2020 collection.
