LA Kings Reverse Retro 2.0 Released — The 7 Things You Need to Know Now

October 20, 2022 By David Hofreiter


After months of hype and speculation, Adidas and the NHL released their full Reverse Retro 2.0 jersey collection on Thursday. True to form, the new LA Kings sweater looked pretty much like the leaks provided by MayorsManor (see here for previous posts, including the full uniform kit).

With RR2.0 now underway, here are the 7 things Kings fans need to know:

1. HOW TO BUY

Yes, the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, and fans want to place orders. Click here to do so.

Side note – the NHL store has a smoking deal going on Kings gear right now, you may want to check it out here.

2. THE INSPIRATION

This second edition of the Kings Reverse Retro collection was created to honor the 1982 LA uniform worn during what the league refers to as “one of the greatest NHL comebacks ever.” More commonly known as, the “Miracle on Manchester,” which occurred 40 years ago. This year’s white jersey shell features purple and gold trims, along with satin stitch embroidery. It’s the first time the club’s iconic purple and gold sweaters have been done up with a white base. The collar features the year ‘1982,’ similar to the ‘1988’ inside the collar of RR1.0 jerseys. The crown crest in the center of the jersey incorporates a dimensional treatment with raised gems and detailed satin stitch embroidery. Also of note, all RR2.0 jerseys include a vintage NHL Shield, remixed in classic orange and black colors.

3. KINGS REVERSE RETRO SCHEDULE

Saturday, Nov. 12 vs. Detroit Red Wings in LA

Saturday, Dec. 17 vs. San Jose Sharks in LA

Friday, Dec. 23 at Arizona Coyotes

Saturday, Dec. 31 vs. Philadelphia Flyers in LA

4. OTHER RR JERSEYS TO BE WORN vs. LOS ANGELES
