With about two months until the puck drops on the 2026-27 season, the Professional Women\u2019s Hockey League<\/a> has rolled out what its four new expansion teams will be wearing when they take the ice.<\/p>\n

The PWHL launched the jerseys on their website and social media channels on Thursday, October 8. And, like other PWHL teams before them, the new squads will wear jerseys with their city names spelled out diagonally across the front in their first season, with nicknames and logos coming later.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Opening Weekend getting closer, unveiling these jerseys is another exciting milestone for our four new teams and the fans who have embraced them from day one. Detroit, Hamilton, Las Vegas, and San Jose are each building their own connection with their communities, and these jerseys give fans another way to show their pride while carrying forward a PWHL tradition of putting the city name front and center in a team\u2019s inaugural season.\u201d<\/p>\n

The jerseys adhere to the colour schemes unveiled with the announcement of each city\u2019s team in May 2026 (Detroit<\/a>, Hamilton, Las Vegas<\/a>, San Jose<\/a>) with the slight exception of Las Vegas, who have added navy blue to their previously announced green and golden yellow palette.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a closer look at each jersey and what the PWHL has to say about each one in a press release:<\/p>\n

PWHL Detroit\u2019s black home jersey features silver metallic accents, reflecting the city\u2019s automotive history, innovative and industrial spirit, and the bold and resilient identity of Metro Detroiters. The color trio of white, silver, and red stripes are a callback to Detroit\u2019s 313 area code, with red as a nod to Hockeytown\u2019s hockey stewardship in the United States for more than 100 years. The team\u2019s inaugural partner, Ally Financial, is the exclusive jersey patch partner of PWHL Detroit.<\/p>\n

PWHL HAMILTON\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"Courtesy PWHL<\/a><\/p>\n

PWHL Hamilton\u2019s gold, deep red, burnt orange, and cream color palette embodies the city\u2019s steel industry while paying homage to the area\u2019s deep sports history. The gold primary home jerseys with burnt orange and deep red accents evoke the colors of forging and rusted steel, while calling back to the uniforms worn by the CFL\u2019s Hamilton Tiger-Cats and the former Hamilton Bulldogs (OHL) and Hamilton Tigers (NHL).<\/p>\n

PWHL LAS VEGAS\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"Courtesy PWHL<\/a><\/p>\n

The green, gold, and navy color palette of PWHL Las Vegas is inspired by the natural scenery of Southern Nevada. The primary green home jerseys reflect the beauty of the desert valley, while a custom gold accent color, created especially for PWHL Las Vegas, evokes the sparkle of the desert sun. Navy stripes provide a striking contrast and nod to the desert at night. The jerseys proudly say \u2018VEGAS\u2019 across the front, embracing the name locals use for the place they call home. <\/p>\n

PWHL SAN JOSE\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"Courtesy PWHL<\/a><\/p>\n

PWHL San Jose\u2019s mandarin orange home jerseys with sky blue accents are bright, bold, and imaginative, capturing the Bay Area\u2019s optimistic energy and the beauty of California. The distinct and recognizable mandarin orange color \u2013 a nod to both the region\u2019s orange groves and San Jose\u2019s flag \u2013 is a first for Bauer to use as a team\u2019s primary color.<\/p>\n

The PWHL\u2019s 2026-27 Opening Weekend will take place on December 5 and 6. The four expansion teams\u2019 debut games will be:<\/p>\n
