An employee uses a machine that manufactures jerseys at SP Apparel in Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada, on September 27, 2024. As a sport that involves men colliding at high speeds, bare-knuckle brawls, and a fair number of players with missing front teeth, ice hockey is not commonly linked to high fashion.
