After last season’s unveiling of two new uniforms, not much is on the radar as far as new jerseys for the Capitals this season. There are only a few minor tweaks, most notably to the lettering, for this season.
One change that’s big in scope but subtle in execution is the introduction of a new raised-embroidery technique on jersey crests. The league and Adidas are simply calling it “dimensional embroidery,” and it appears to be similar to puff embroidery, which is commonly used for MLB cap logos.

So, not much of a change – certainly not enough to rush out an buy a new sweater. Hopefully we see on new design in the near future.

Only have one thing to say about this…..this is so profound and impactful that this team willnow go 82-0 nad go undefeated in the playoffs and win the CUP!! See what a slight change can do. However the addition of advertising might change things.
This makes sense Druid. It has to be! 😁
