Bruins unveil uniforms for 2026
The Boston Bruins unveiled the team’s uniform for the 2026 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series game versus the Tampa Bay Lightning on February 1, 2026, at Raymond James Stadium. The Bruins’ “gold & black” look is tailor-made for the moment as this marquee event will mark the first time in League history that an outdoor game will be played in a football stadium in Florida. The new sweaters reverse the team’s iconic color scheme, bringing a rich, vibrant gold to center stage, as well as include larger-than-life numbers on the sleeve and helmet, and elements that pay homage to the Bruins’ diehard New England fans who show up to cheer on their team at home and away.
“Through multiple Winter Classics and of course our club’s 100th anniversary, we’ve done a lot of retro and vintage style jerseys, but Stadium Series presented an opportunity to do something really unique,” said Boston Bruins President Cam Neely. “We’re excited to introduce a uniform that combines Bruins toughness and snarl with some really dialed up components and coloring. These sweaters are going to look great under the Sunday night lights.” The jerseys feature a variety of new brand marks and design elements: Sunshine Motif: In addition to the primary gold color, the jersey features debossed sun rays on the sleeves and on the hem loop label, which also features “BOS” – Boston’s airport code – a nod to the road warriors. Football-Inspired: The main “Boston” wordmark on the front of the jersey is akin to the New England Patriots styling, an intentional nod to the game being hosted in an NFL football stadium, and features a lock-up treatment with the Bruins’ crawling bear logo. The crawling bear – traditionally a secondary brand asset – is bigger and more prominent for the Stadium Series. Bear Claw Slash: One side shoulder features a new secondary mark, an iconic varsity B with a bear claw slash to signifying the grit and toughness that have been synonymous with Bruins hockey for more than 100 years. The slash graphic element appears throughout the uniform, including on the jersey, helmet, and pants. Love For New England: The inside neck collar features the abbreviations of the six New England states as a reminder that the Bruins are proud to represent their region no matter where they play. The Bruins 2026 jerseys and additional Stadium Series merchandise will be available for purchase on December 15 at BostonProShop.com and in-store at the ProShop at The Hub on Causeway. The NHL Stadium Series will be broadcast by ESPN.
Upcoming: On Tuesday the Bruins took on the Utah Mammoth, to begin a five-game homestand. Tonight (Thursday 7:00pm) the locals will host the Edmonton Oilers and Connor McDavid, followed by a visit from the Vancouver Canucks (Saturday 7:00pm) to open a back-to-back weekend, with the Ottawa Senators (Sunday 7:00pm) to finish the set. The Montreal Canadiens will stop by TD Garden to continue the long time rivalry on Tuesday at 7:00pm.
