At the heart of the jersey, the iconic Flames "C" is transformed into a radiant symbol of prosperity and energy. The reflective gold finish represents good fortune and wealth, key themes in Lunar New Year celebrations. Surrounding the "C," stylized Asian-inspired flames dance upward, evoking both the team’s fierce determination and the cultural significance of fire as a purifying and protective force. Encircling the flames, swirling Chinese-style clouds add a sense of movement and balance, symbolizing harmony and the continuous flow of life’s energies.
On one shoulder, a new moon emerges from a bed of clouds, representing renewal and the Lunar New Year’s connection to the moon's cycles. On the other shoulder, the rising sun behind the iconic Rocky Mountains signifies hope, strength, and the city’s place at the intersection of natural beauty and human endeavour. Together, the moon and sun reflect the lunisolar calendar, which harmonizes these celestial forces that guide the timing of the Lunar New Year. The mountains serve as a nod to Calgary’s unique landscape, blending the local identity with a global cultural celebration.
