The roar hits you differently in Savannah. It’s not the Swamp on a Saturday, but it’s just as electric. It’s the crisp chill of the rink cutting through the southern air, the echo of skates carving ice, and the unified sound of a thousand traveling fans starting the familiar chant. This isn’t just another game; it’s the Savannah Hockey Classic, a tradition where the heart of Gator Nation beats strong, far from home. We wanted to bottle that unique energy. When our design team sat down to create the 2026 commemorative jersey, we asked ourselves: What does it feel like to be a Gator in Savannah? It’s a blend of coastal cool and that unstoppable, primal Gator spirit. This jersey is our answer—a story told in color, script, and one iconic, toothy grin.
More Than a Jersey: Your Gators Savannah Hockey Classic Story
This isn’t your standard, off-the-rack fan gear. We looked at what everyone else was doing—the same old logos on the same old templates—and decided to create something with soul. This jersey is a wearable piece of art, meticulously designed to capture a specific moment in time for the most dedicated fans. From the first sketch to the final stitch, every element was chosen to honor the team, the fans, and the unforgettable atmosphere of the Savannah tournament.
- A Unique Coastal Hue: The first thing you’ll notice is the color. We moved away from the traditional royal blue to a vibrant, light sky blue. This color is a direct nod to Savannah’s coastal charm and the crisp, clear ice of the rink. It’s a shade that stands out in a crowd, instantly identifying you as part of the traveling Gator faithful.
- Vintage-Inspired Script: The flowing “Florida” script across the chest is a throwback to classic sports heritage. Rendered in bold Gator orange with a clean white outline, it pops against the blue backdrop. This isn’t a generic block font; it’s a statement of style and a tribute to the timeless legacy of Florida athletics. Our designer envisioned a look that felt both nostalgic and fiercely modern, and this custom script nails it.
- The Iconic Chomp Trim: This is the detail that truly sets this jersey apart. Look closely at the trim on the sleeves and waist. That isn’t just a random pattern. It’s a stylized, repeating motif of gator teeth, creating a visual “Chomp” that wraps around the jersey. It was a breakthrough moment in our design process—how to physically embed the most iconic cheer in Florida sports into the fabric of the jersey itself. Competitors use generic stripes; we give you the bite.
- Authentic Hockey Details: From the lace-up collar that screams classic hockey sweater to the authentic “University Ice Hockey Club” circular patches on the shoulders, every detail is crafted for legitimacy. It feels like a real-deal hockey jersey because it was designed by people who love the sport.

Owning this jersey is about more than just showing your colors. It’s about holding a piece of the 2026 Savannah Hockey Classic forever. It’s for the fans who make the road trip, who pack the arenas for club sports, and who understand that Gator pride isn’t limited to the big stadiums. When you pull this on, you’re not just wearing a jersey; you’re wearing a memory. You’re representing a community that travels, that cheers, and that turns every city into a corner of Gainesville. While other descriptions talk about “showing your pride,” we know you live it. This jersey is a testament to that dedication—a conversation starter at watch parties and a badge of honor that says, “I was there,” or “I’m with them in spirit.” It’s a collectible piece that commemorates a unique chapter in the story of Florida hockey.
