The Boston Bruins just went through a rebrand<\/a> this past summer, and they might not be done adding to their look.<\/p>\n

They played in a Stadium Series<\/a> game in February, which added a third jersey<\/a> to the mix this season. Those typically last for one year. The Bruins have not announced whether or not they will continue to wear the yellow jerseys this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the NHL is reportedly coming out with an \u201c\u2018HTR\u2019 Jersey program\u201d for the 2026-27 season, according to a Reddit user<\/a> who claims to work for a hockey retailer in the US. The report is unconfirmed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to a report from SportsLogos.net<\/a>, Fanatics has filed a trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the \u201cHometown Remix<\/a>\u201d mark. Fanatics submitted an application on February 12, 2025, suggesting the \u201cHTR\u201d has been in motion for some time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The \u201cHometown Remix\u201d will feature all 32 teams, much like the \u201cReverse Retro\u201d program that Adidas ran twice since 2020.<\/p>\n

The new Bruins jersey is expected to be brown.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Bruins have not worn a brown jersey in a while; they entered the NHL in 1924-25 wearing a brown uniform. They wore brown until the 1935 season and won the 1929 Stanley Cup in the color.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The team wore a throwback to this uniform, although it was black, in the 2016 Winter Classic<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Since the early 1930s, the Bruins have incorporated brown into their uniforms three times, but they have never used it as the primary color. They wore a jersey with brown for the 2010 Winter Classic<\/a>, the 2019 Winter Classic<\/a>, and during the 2023-24 Centennial season<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the 2021 pandemic-shortened season<\/a>, the Bruins wore a gold sweater as part of the Reverse Retro program. It was a direct throwback to the jerseys worn in the 1980s and 1990s \u2013 the look the Bruins rebranded to over the summer \u2013 but featured a gold base and the old logo (pictured above).<\/p>\n

In October 2022<\/a>, the Bruins unveiled a white version of their yellow \u201cPooh Bear\u201d alternate jerseys from 1995-2006<\/a>. They wore it six times in November and December of 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Whether or not the report on jersey colors proves true remains to be seen. The trademark filing shows optimism towards a new set of jerseys coming for the NHL, following the lead of the NBA<\/a>, MLB<\/a>, and NFL<\/a> with city-themed alternates.<\/p>\n

The reports suggest that teams in the program will experiment with base colors. Florida is preparing a pink jersey, Los Angeles a purple one, and the Blackhawks and Ducks green ones.<\/p>\n

The Reddit post also included the price tags allotted to each jersey. The blank ones will run for $200, and the ones with a name on the back will go for $230.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If the Bruins do go brown, the 1926-27 striping pattern<\/a> would be a natural choice. They first wore the look that season, and they made three Stanley Cup Finals while wearing the sweater. A century anniversary would not be the worst excuse to bring it back.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a \u201cremix,\u201d though, so I am not expecting a direct throwback.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Boston Bruins just went through a rebrand this past summer, and they might not be done adding…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":476903,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,5789,242764,952,575,85],"class_list":["post-476902","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-boston-bruins","tag-fanatics-nhl-jerseys","tag-featured","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/476902","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=476902"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/476902\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/476903"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=476902"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=476902"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=476902"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
