One of the premier American-born players currently in the NHL, Patrick Kane is also one of the key components to the current success of the juggernaut Chicago Black Hawks. This Hawks jersey was worn by Kane in his first NHL game on Oct 4th 2007, and it’s been photo-matched! With size tagging in collar, there are also NHL and Reebok patches on the front and back necklines respectively. Featuring a gorgeous and classic Indian head team crest and dual-colour tackle twill numbers, the garment also has the Wirtz “WWW” patch over the right breast. Game-use on the important sweater includes dark marks on the lower front and sleeves, along with board burns and a rip just above the lower band on the right side. As mentioned, this jersey has been photo-matched to Kane’s first game, with additional matches right up until early-November.
