Ice hockey uniform orders, in short
Sharknits makes custom ice hockey uniforms for associations, schools, leagues and hockey shops: game jerseys, hockey socks, pant shells and practice jerseys. Team uniforms are our specialty. The minimum is 25 pieces per design in adult sizes and 50 in youth sizes, with sizes mixed and goalie jerseys counted in. Socks start at 50 pairs per design. Each adult jersey can carry its own name and number at no extra charge. First we make one physical sample, for $150 to $500 depending on the design. After you approve it, bulk takes about 3 to 4 weeks, plus shipping. We make the uniforms in our own factories in Pakistan, with a US office near Chicago. We quote FOB (free on board) Karachi or DDP (delivered duty paid) to your door, and youth sizes ship FOB Karachi. You pay in full when the order is ready to ship. Schools can pay with a purchase order. We invoice from our US office and send a W-9, the US tax form a supplier gives a buyer.
Team uniforms are our specialty. Schools can pay with a purchase order, and clubs and leagues can order for many teams at once.

- Socks: a pair to match each jersey.
- Pant shell: one shell over the hockey pants, in your team color.

Your league's rules
Uniform rules differ by level, so check your league's rules before you order. These lines are as of October 2026.
- Numbers: high school and college rules ask for back numbers at least 10 inches tall and sleeve numbers at least 4 inches.
- Letters: the captain wears a C and the alternates an A, on the front of the jersey.
- Light and dark: high school and college rules put the home team in light jerseys and the visitors in dark. Order a light set and a dark set.
- Matching: players on a team wear matching jerseys. High school rules ask for matching socks and pants too.
- Maker's logo: high school and college rules allow one small maker's logo on each piece. Our bolt goes on once, and every label goes inside.
