The jersey debuted during the 2020-21 season. The large W on the front of the jersey serves as a tribute to Washington, D.C., with the Washington monument structure peaking in the middle of the W. The "W" stands alone as a Capital Letter to symbolize the strength of the nation's Capital. The color scheme is aligned with the United States of America's flag; with each color also representing attributes displayed by Capitals fans: red stands for dedication, white represents loyalty and blue honors community. The Three Stars represent Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Virginia.
