The best Seattle Kraken gear | 2021
Seattle is a city loyal fans. It doesn’t matter whether our team wins, loses or even plays again; what matters is that they are ours.
That’s why, long before the start of the Kraken hockey team’s inaugural season, several evenings at a Ballard brasserie arose to cheer on a random man in a navy blue jersey. That’s why our very first preseason game at Spokane is sold out. That’s why we want to have fun. Here’s our favorite Kraken gear for casual fans and hockey enthusiasts – after all, we’re all part of the team.
