The jerseys are modeled after Swift's official "Eras Tour" merchandise and feature several nods to the pop star's discography, including snakes, a clock set to midnight, a red scarf and her famous pet cats.
They also feature images from "different eras of Chicago Steel hockey," including championship moments, top players and other memories from the club's 24-year history," according to a press release.
Each of Swift's album titles are written on the sleeves, along with two friendship bracelets around the wrists. Players will be rocking one "Reputation" jumpsuit-inspired sock to mimic the singer's tour costume.
"We wanted a promotion where fans could feel 22," Steel President Dan Lehv said. "If it doesn’t work, Don't Blame Me. If you do, it's fine — my tears ricochet."
