The burgundy-colored jersey will feature the word "Arizona" in sand-colored cursive writing across the chest. A sand-colored star is located above the letter "i" in "Arizona". The shooting star represents the desert night when Coyotes hunt and is also symbolic of the Arizona State flag. The edges of the wordmark are not straight but uneven. This irregular outline along with the raw edge emphasizes the rough and raw desert. In addition, a half-moon is used for the captaincy "C", and a cactus is used for the alternate captain "A". This jersey shows the continued evolution of the Kachina print.
The Club collaborated with the NHL's League-wide uniform partner, adidas, to bring these designs to life on the ice and at retail. The new third jersey is part of the ADIZERO Primegreen Authentic NHL jersey collection and features the adidas badge of sport logo on the back neck, platinum NHL shield on the front, deboss shoulder execution, Primegreen branding and the fight strap.
The jersey will have sand-colored numbers and name bars along with sand-colored Kachina striping on the sleeves and socks. The right side of the pants will feature a sand-colored desert cactus. Small geckos can be found inside the collar of the jersey, a tribute to the gecko shoulder patch from the Coyotes original green third jersey and the current Desert Sienna Adidas Reverse Retro jersey. The Coyotes players will wear burgundy-colored helmets and gloves to complete the uniform.
The Coyotes will wear their new third jerseys for the first time on Sunday, Jan. 22 when they take on the Vegas Golden Knights at Mullett Arena. In total, the Coyotes will wear the jersey 14 times during the 2022-23 NHL regular season. Below is the complete third jersey schedule.
