The Sharks Cali Fin look represents a new appearance for the franchise and features several new and unique style elements combined with familiar details from previous looks that have been popular with players and fans alike.

o The Cali Fin uniform features a black base color which is highly desired by both players and fans.

o The jersey uses the Evolve Fin, a re-imagined, modern representation of a symbol popular since the inception of the franchise, as the jersey’s primary crest, making this the first time in franchise history that the iconic Shark head does not appear as the jersey crest (non-Reverse Retro).

o The uniform features a striping pattern consistent with the team’s current primary jerseys.

o The franchise strived to find ways to make the jersey meaningful to the larger Bay Area community, in particular honoring the heritage of Northern California. One symbol of Hispanic heritage and influence in the region are yarn-dyed textiles. The unique technique and striping patterns used to produce serapes and other items has a long history and still has a place in California apparel and surf culture. As a nod to this influence in the community, the team incorporated a teal yarn-dye-esque pattern on the sleeves and at the bottom of the jersey.

o The re-imagined popular Northern California Shark-fin shoulder patches, which were revised from the 2015 Stadium Series patch, is a salute to Sharks fans and supporters throughout the region.

o A shark tooth pattern has been incorporated into the neckline to stand out and to give the design a more aggressive look. This is also a stick tap to the fan’s “Chomp” tradition.

o The uniform incorporates a Sharks custom font for numbers and letters that was first introduced with the 2022-23 primary jerseys.

o The Cali Fin uniform will re-introduce past elements to the team’s uniform including black helmets, black pants with striping to match the jersey, black gloves, and black socks with a matching yarn-dye-esque pattern.

  1. "Let's not count the wins and losses in them" good luck getting everyone to abide by that lol. I do like (maybe even LOVE) these new alternates?

  2. I think the 3rd looks even better that they add white back to the black Jersey the first black Jersey had white in it i thought that was their best looking 3rd tell now .

  3. Brodie, slight correction, the Golden Seal retro jerseys last season didn’t have the San Jose Shark crest.

  4. My fav Shark sweatshirt is from the Stadium Series & is that Northern California patch. So I LOVE that they put it on these jerseys.
    We may not win, but we’ll look good playing!!!

  5. Here's my question, why did the Sharks have Raffi Torres be in the unveiling video? No offense, but it would have been better if they gotten someone like Cheechoo or even Thornton. Torres barely had any impact on the team when he was with us. He basically was suspended most of the time.

  6. My biggest problem is I don’t know what player to get 😅

    Who you recommend Brodie? Hertl for nostalgia or Eklund for the future? Wild card Thrun?

  7. A tiny bit too busy for me at the bottom and ends of the sleeves, but still great. I wanted that logo on the front since I was a kid.

    "4 in the net, pizza you get!"

    Fun side story about that… Before I began my aviation career, I worked at Round Table Pizza locations for 5 years. I HATED that they would always announce at a 4+ goal game that everyone in attendance would get a "Personal Pan" pizza. The truth always was you get a personal "size" pizza. Didn't have to be pan crust. Actually, now that I think about it, I think pan crust was an added cost. Super annoying for we employees and confusing for customers.

  8. I really like these jerseys. I know some people have differing opinions about the stripes and the main crest, but these uniforms look really good. Can't wait to see them when the Sharks wear them!

  9. There's some hidden genius in that Northern California shoulder patch…

    The black fin in that shoulder patch also doubles as the inside of an open shark mouth. Can you see it?

  10. Quit simp’n Brodie. These sweaters aren’t good. Sharks have an iconic logo and looks great in black. It’s not the colors it’s the logo that’s bleh.

  11. All these sports teams have a weird obbession with black jerseys/uniforms. Why do the New York Jets have a black uniform?

  12. Im not one of those people that is very into jerseys and super critical. I usually don't have much of an opinion but I really like those.
