Washington Capitals' new third jersey fully integrates DC flag for first time in team history
"The red, white, and blue Screaming Eagle sweater features a new "Caps" wordmark printed on the inner back neck, utilizing a font entitled "ALL CAPS." The team also fully introduced the Washington, DC flag into one of their jersey designs for the first time in team history. The flag is stitched in a loop label located on the back hem, and is "a hidden discovery element while honoring the team's home," per a team release."
"Over the years, the flag's addition has been in high demand from some Capitals fans and jersey mock-up artists on social media. The imagery has a strong connection to the city beyond the obvious. The flag is based on the coat of arms of George Washington, the United States' first president, and the city's namesake. The design features three red stars above two red bars on a white background."
