New products : Boathouse Sports Launches USA Made Ice Hockey Collection

Boathouse Sports announced that it will premier its new Made in the USA Ice Hockey uniform line at the 2013 AHCA (American Hockey Coaches Association) Convention in Naples, FL on May 1.


Boathouse, a leader in sublimated team uniforms since 2004, is excited to bring this technology to Ice Hockey.  “Our sublimated jerseys are 20 percent lighter than the traditional cut-and-sew jerseys with large embroidered team logos and tackle twill letters and numbers,” says Doug Tibbetts, CEO of Boathouse Sports.  “We are especially excited about the pairing of our sublimated jerseys and sublimated hockey socks, which will give teams the opportunity to create a unique, fully branded look.

Boathouse combines this new uniform offering with their fully custom Made in USA outerwear & training gear which enables teams to create a completely custom, fully branded team presence both on and off the ice.  “Ice Hockey requires a true investment by the players and their families and we find that the pride they experience when fully outfitted in quality fully-integrated gear is of real importance to them,” said Tibbetts.  “No other team supplier can provide the fully custom branded complement of uniforms, outerwear, training gear and fan & supporter gear that Boathouse does.”

Boathouse partnered with several teams throughout the country who wore their gear for the 2012/2013 season, including the New Trier Men’s Team who won the Illinois State High School Ice Hockey State Championships televised from United Center, home of the Chicago Blackhawks, on March 25th. “The athletes who wore our jerseys for the 2012/2013 found our gear to be lighter, quicker to dry and more comfortable to play in than their old-school jerseys.  Ours outperformed their traditional gear by a significant margin,” said Tibbetts. “It was extremely exciting to watch the New Trier team win the Illinois State Championship in our jerseys.”

The new gear offering comprises two fully-sublimated jerseys -- the Flight and the Velocity -- matched-up with Boathouse’s Sublimated Hockey Socks for a fully integrated and elite uniform package. The jerseys have double shoulders and elbows and are reinforced at all critical seams.  The Flight Jersey has the traditional hockey sweater tie neck and the Velocity with a sleek V-neck collar. The Ice Shell is built from tough 420 denier coated nylon oxford with stretch insets for added mobility and has an adjustable buckle waistband.  All styles are available in Adult and Youth sizing, including both Adult and Youth Goalie cuts for the jerseys.

Boathouse’s on-line Team Store model also gives teams the convenience of building custom stores for their team and their fans and provides and easy web-based ordering process that takes the worry and work away from the team coaches and managers and provides a simple platform for organizing team and supporter purchases. 

“Our on-line Team Store model is an ideal tool for Ice Hockey teams who are tired of complicated, patched-together apparel purchasing,” adds Tibbetts “ We offer one place to design and buy all of your gear and get it to your players and supporters automatically.”
