The Pre-Game Chirping Duster

This piece is about the part of rivalry that happens at home.

Made from a single layer of vintage hockey flannel — skates, helmets, colour, movement — this robe-style garment feels soft, familiar, and easy. It’s a three-quarter length, flowy silhouette designed to be worn open or wrapped, the kind of piece you reach for without thinking and then never stop wearing.

Each version is finished with pockets fashioned from vintage jerseys — red on one, blue on the other — a quiet nod to opposing sides, or a more kimono-style one with the Sens pride logo (let's be honest, I design from Ottawa - and pride games mean as much to me as they do to you). A vintage silk scarf remnant featuring a Canadian loon appears like a secret detail, something you notice later, when you’re closer. The loon isn’t decoration here — it’s a presence. A mark of tenderness carried alongside toughness.

This is one of the most wearable pieces in the Heated Rivalry collection: uncomplicated, warm, and emotionally charged in a low-key way. A Valentine piece for the soft hours — before the game, after the game, or when none of that matters anymore. Washable, dryable, fits S-L.
