{"product_id":"new-haven-blades-1970-71-knit-sweater","title":"New Haven Blades 1970-71 Knit Sweater","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe New Haven Blades were a fixture of the Eastern Hockey League from 1954 to 1972, playing out of the New Haven Arena in Connecticut's Elm City. They won the EHL title in only their second season, 1955-56, under player\/coach Don Perry, and made the playoffs in 15 of their 18 seasons with EHL legends like Blake Ball and John Brophy on the roster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have recreated the red sweater the Blades wore in 1970-71, one of their final seasons in the EHL, with the script Blades wordmark across the chest and blue and white striping on the arms and waist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVintage Ice Hockey's knit sweater collection celebrates the roots of the game, replicating the classic sweaters worn by hockey players everywhere during the first half of the 20th century. Each sweater features a two-colour jacquard knit pattern that is a half cotton, half poly blend, and a relaxed fit. They are soft and warm without being stuffy, and unlike scratchy wool sweaters, they can be comfortably worn indoors and out. The knit sweaters closely resemble their team's original vintage designs down to specific seasons, albeit with slight variations in striping and colours due to manufacturing requirements. Designed to honour both historical teams and reimagine modern teams in old time style, these sweaters are the perfect blend of comfort, style, and hockey history. Available now for fans and collectors alike.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease allow 3-4 weeks for production and delivery.
