Over the years we have opened up VG Authorized Dealers throughout the US and Canada in small and large hockey shops. We are happy to welcome Revolt Hockey Company in Vegas as one of our newest accounts! They're located just south of the LAS airport.

Be sure to stop on by if you find yourself in the area, especially those that are in town for hockey tournaments! To get their address or learn more about them, click HERE.

Want to see VG in your local hockey shop? Learn more below.

We don’t think of our Authorized Dealers (wholesale partners) as “just an account,” we think of them as one more member of the VG Hockey Club. Share the link below with your local hockey shop to learn more about the process to start suppling VG gear to your local hockey community! Learn more or contact us by clicking HERE.

This VG Country Club release is our strongest to date. The newest Ron Tee is officially him on the links. Heavyweight Tee and soft print.

We continue this batch of new releases with a golf hat with a chain-stitched VG flagsticks logo. Next, we have a super high end pique polo. It’s a good, heavy polo, with an embroidered logo that’s been with our brand for over a decade.

We also give you three new head covers! Driver as well as both styles of putter. We’re incredibly happy how these turned out and hope you love them.

Last but not least, we thought this tee design was gone forever... Turns out it’s Haydis’ (VG Dad/Head of Operations) favorite so he had us bring it back. Make sure you buy them up so he doesn’t need to have the stock taken out of his paycheck. Take a look below to see what VG Tee Dad had us breakout from the archives. 

We are back for another summer of Free Burger Friday ALL SUMMER LONG! Starting Friday, June 2nd and ending Friday, Sept 1st join us every Friday for free lunch, Jake's Crazy Deals, good times, wild shenanigans, guest grillers, special events, AND MORE!! There might be one week with something golf related... there might be another week with something dog related... honestly we've been tossing out some wild ideas so COME SAY HI!! Get our warehouse/Team Store/VG HQ address HERE.

Text your buds and start planning some trips down to VG HQ! In the meantime, take a look at these snapshots from previous FBFs. 

The Wampas are proud to announce our jersey partner, Lifetipsforbetterliving. They are a hockey based clothing company from Earth in the Keitele region. They look to bring a timeless look to our emerging club. The jerseys feature imagery from the Great War, and the majestic beasts that patrolled it.

Despite our city having no airport they have confirmed they will be able to deliver via a new Rebel Transport contract. Jerseys and merchandise have been made available on the Echo Base - Hoth, VGHC Team Store - Keitele, and vghc.com in very limited quantities.

Thanks for your support of Wampa Hockey.

May is here so it’s time for some spring pieces. Starting off strong with a beautiful Sleeveless Womens Tee. Front print and back prints, light cotton body, ready to take on the world.

Next up is the 5 Minute Major PREMIUM Tee. This is only celebrating the pressure release valve of the fight. Don’t do any of the other stuff, ok?

Last but not least, a brand new Unstructured Hat celebrating life’s highs and lows. Ok it’s a Yin-Yang. We wanted a sick Yin-Yang hat to match our Balance Premium Tee and Jacket we released April 1st so here we are. All available to ship today or pickup in our store.

All photos shot by Josh Hulstein. 

Well we're here to kick off the off-season with some new Country Club Golf gear! We've got a fantastic new stretch polo in BLACK CAMO. Oh yea, we went there. To show it off we took it to our local golf simulator to break it in and snap some pics. 

There are more Country Club pieces to check out today as well. We've got a new tessh with a black camo print on our standard tees and a new pair of socks. For this release we also partnered with the company Requip'd to create some Hockey Stick Golf Brushes out of recycled hockey sticks. Not one is alike! Plus it comes in a 2-pack. To learn more about this Non-profit, click here. 

Last but not least, we have a stress reliever foam puck we are releasing as well. It's perfect for those that will be watching the playoffs and cheering on their team or those at the golf course getting a round in...  or maybe you just have kids and need them to use a foam puck to not break things in the house when they play hallway hockey.   

As always, we appreciate the support. It's been a wild hockey season and we are incredibly thankful to be apart of the journey. 

We’ve wanted to make leashes, collars, and bandanas for dogs for quite some time. We knew they had to be perfect, as we’ve met quite a bit of the VG dog community and they’re all 10/10.

Finally they are here! Collars for prettyyy much all sizes dogs, matching 6' leash, and a beautiful bandana. We’re so proud of this collection, we even used our own dogs for the photos! Also, we added their names, weight and the size collar/bandana they are wearing. All pups are using the 6' leash. 

• Coco - 10lbs - XS
• Palmer - 20lbs - S
• Wanda - 22 lbs - S
• Wally - 13 lbs - S (tall and fluffy)
• Koba - 55 lbs - L

Have photos of your pups on dog gear? Tag us on Instagram and we'd love to share with everyone! Don't have an IG account? No worries, email them to us at [email protected].

April 1st is our big April Fool’s Sale so this blog is a bit late. Our apologies. If you didn’t get in on that special sale, we highly suggest marketing your calendar for next year and following instructions so you don’t become a fool. 

As spring starts to turn we’re going with some lighter items. Sometimes that means missing sleeves, sometimes simply lighter fabric. We brought back two fan favorite tank tops. Captain and Circle. As is the new standard they are both on premium tank top bodies.

Next up we have a premium tee that will make you feel like cranking Pearl Jam and tying one of our flannels around your waist. This graphic also comes in a lightweight windbreaker. As they say… April showers…

The Los Angeles Kings look to celebrate their local Mexican Community on 3/26 at Crypto.com Arena for another Heritage Night. Along with their in-arena experiences and fun, they have some very special merchandise available for the night.

We were tasked with handling the merch for this night and we couldn't do this without our good friend and artist, Francisco Reyes, Jr. He was a perfect fit for the job, not only because his actual name translates to “Kings,” but because he’s an extremely talented Mexican American Angeleno. Here’s some photos form our meeting with Cisco and the Kings staff as well as the lifestyle shoot with Omar to show off the collection. 

Take a look at these fantastic pieces of art. Apparel will be available in the TEAM LA STORE at the Kings arena when doors open but they will sell out FAST so don't sleep on it if you are going to the game!!!!!

The merch will also be available for preorder online at the Team LA Store either tonight or Monday morning.

***WE WILL NOT BE SELLING MERCH ON OUR WEBSITE. 

We have gone pretty mild with our Lifetipsforbetterliving x Spirit Jersey designs over the last few years... until now. We spent many hours piecing together something new and we finally decided it’s time to set it off every print location available!! We released our Mission Spirit Jersey back in February but wanted to give it another special shoutout this week as they are the perfect piece for spring weather. 

If you are not too familiar with the brand, let us introduce you. SPIRIT JERSEY® is a casual clothing company founded and built in the Los Angeles, CA area just north of us. Their oversized crewneck long sleeves are meticulously designed by merging the graphic with the garment. It creates a style that tells a unique story every time. We've enjoyed creating new designs with them over the years and look forward to the opportunity to create more pieces in the future.

Ok, let's circle back to this specific release... Naturally we had to ask their production team how obnoxious we could get with the various printing locations on the long sleeves and they sure did not disappoint! For this release, one garment has 2 sleeve hits, a front center hit, and a MASSIVE back hit. Oh yeah, we almost forgot to mention all of these print hits are PUFF PAINT!!! It's a bold piece to add to your collection. 

REMINDER: These Spirit Jersey's are intentionally produced to be an oversized crewneck long sleeves!! Don't skip over that! For the men, we'd recommend sticking with the same size you get in our STANDARD 4.3oz tees (not the Premium or Heavyweight Tees) to achieve the look Spirit Jersey intended. For the women, we'd recommend going down a size from what you order in our STANDARD 4.3oz tees for that same look intended by Spirit Jersey. 

Our male model below is wearing a Medium Spirit Jersey and wears a Medium in our Standard Tee while our female model below is wearing an X-Small but wears a Small in our Standard Tee. 

Our relationship with the Kings has grown over the season and continues to grow. It started with some tee shirts, moved into fleece, custom hats, etc. Now we've taken it to a shirt that could be worn by the the GM with a pair or slacks, or a fan under a vintage Starter jacket. The possibilities are endless with this clean and classic VG x LAK flannel. From the subtle details in the buttons and labels to the classic Kings colors, this piece is one for the ages. 

This piece is available now exclusively in the Team LA store inside crypto.com Arena. Quantities are limited so do not sleep on this one. 

Now that Fool's Spring has passed and we're almost out of second winter it's time to start to warm up the releases.

This is the first lightweight 6.5oz fleece we've done in a long time. Timeless design with a lighter body makes for a perfect spring piece. It's practically a fleece lined long sleeve.

Next up...the Jubilee Heavyweight Tee. It's a joyous collage of some of our favorite celebrated moments. Do you recognize any?? Did you watch any live??

Last but certainly not least...tank tops are BACK! Check this out...they now come in our premium fit. This gives you a little bit more room, a little bit thicker fabric, and another reason to let those pythons breath. To set it off we're dropping two designs at once so you can start planning. All items are in stock and ready to ship!

Not sure what came over us when we started the brand, but it just seemed to make sense. We needed an image that encapsulated how we felt. We, Lifetipsforbetterliving, honor the unwritten rule of hard-fought battles on the ice to the handshakes at the end of a series - in the end, we celebrate the sport of hockey above all else, regardless of the outcome of the game. To us as a clothing brand, this image said it all. The Handshake would become one of the first shirts we ever printed somewhere around 11 years ago. 

However, this image has become a stable in other areas of our brand. If you have ever ordered from us before, you're received a card we add with every order we ship. Our Handshake photo on one side and this writeup on the other.

The original tee had been there for some of our biggest life moments... like when Brian announced to the world he was having a baby boy, or when I [Hammer] bought my first gladiator helmet and so many more. 

We're proud to have our clothing be a part of all your life moments so on this reissue we decided to print it on our Premium Tee to give the design a special place in the lineup. The Premium Tees have been a fan favorite with their roomy fit, high end fabric, and sturdy strength.

Regardless, the kids loved the new designs and had a blast showing them off for the camera. Our new kids collection includes a windbreaker jacket, some tie-dye hoodies, a long sleeve, and a tee. 

We also released a new Minor Penalties Infant Onesie for the little ones! 

It’s the first week of March so in most places this is “Fool’s Spring.” It’s still cold most of the day but around 2pm there’s a tiny bit of light at the end of the tunnel. We can't believe we are already dropping another batch of new gear for our monthly new releases! 

Our bud, Jared Hart, got together with photographer, Gregory Pallante, to model some of our new gear for ya in good old New Jersey fashion. We brought back our fan favorite packable jackets and vests in both mens AND womens styles! The womens jacket and vest have a more fitted cut. Available now with a new simple and clean VG design.

Also, included in this drop is a reaper bad boy mascot on a premium tee, and a new snapback. This snapback hat is on our full custom, stretch interior hat. Unbelievable comfort and durability which is the intersection we live at. All available now and shipping today!

This year we had the opportunity to design and create merchandise for the tournament. What's better than combining the OG Mighty Ducks colors and our signature designs?? Right away the team went to work. We put together a collection and ended up creating merch for all of the designs created. During the tournament we set up a pop-up shop for players to shop all weekend long.

We do have some extra units remaining that are now available online. Only a few pieces are shown below. To view the entire online collection, click on the SHOP NOW button below. 

This past weekend the Los Angeles Kings put on an incredible ceremony to honor the career of Dustin Brown. After leading the club to not only its first, but also second Stanley Cup’s in franchise history, this seemed like a ceremony that was planned in 2014. He did it all for the club and they showed it Saturday night.

We had the pleasure of making a few items for the evening and are thrilled on how they turned out. We created a pullover hoodie, long sleeve, and worked with our buds over at Oxford Pennant to create a replica retirement rafter banner. Take a look! Hoodie and long sleeve are available online at teamlastore.com for a limited time! 

This wonderful 15th we brought back a classic. Remember the Circle Hat? We were really feeling our creativity when we named this one. Anyway, it was one of the first hat designs we did maybe 10 ish years ago. Well it’s back and now on our fully custom blanks! Three different options to choose from.

Then we walk you through some printable items… we’ve got a premium teesh with a tiger, a heavyweight long sleeve tee, then a classic tee for St Patricks day! Our holiday tee arrived early so you can party on time.

Oh, also, we snuck in a tough windbreaker because we’re sick of the damn wind infiltrating our sweatshirts. Function first always.

All weekend long you can find us at our pop-up shop in Irvine. We will be setting up at Great Park Ice for the Anaheim Ducks annual Throwback Classic Tournament. We've also got a great Pre-Game Hang with our friends over at Noble Ale Works before the Ducks home game against the Kings for another fantastic freeway face off. DETAILS BELOW!!!

Last week I grabbed our photographer, Chris Glass, and headed to South Florida for some All-Star fun. This event gets a lot of hate but we head out and have a great time every year. Maybe the hate is jealousy…hmm. Anyway, there’s always a nice setup for a fan fest and this might be best yet. Right on the beach with perfect weather!

We met up with my fantastic wife, Carrlyn, at the Lord Stanley display but Chris’ camera would only focus on one thing... Also, we ran into longtime VG supporter/friend Jay Weinberg and his wife Chloe as they were hanging out with Lord Stanley. They looked great in their HellHounds jerseys.

I’m a big fan of large scale items so this giant Funko POP box and hockey helmet really made my entire damn weekend.

We were able to see a couple of our favorite friends right when we walked in…Wild Wing and Youppi! Wouldn't be a perfect trip if we didn't run into some mascots. Was nice to catch up…

Some hockey stuff happened, but you already saw all that. Unreal to see Ovi and Sid together like that…

Finally we ran into Iceburgh. I was a bit nervous as the only other time I saw them they were fighting Jean-Claude Van Damme at the old Civic Arena but was incredibly nice to me. Thanks Iceburgh!

Anyway, the NHL All-Star Game is an amazing time and we hope to see ya there next year in Toronto for the 2024 NHL All-Star Game!

Anyway, he was looking unreal at HQ. Decked out in a full VG rig so we did a quick little shoot and broke it down for ya. Enjoy Alaska’s Finest…

Turns out February is still winter so we thought it was time for some heavies. We pulled out a classy new ultra premium 13.5oz Cross Grain sweatshirt, fan favorite graphic heavyweight long sleeve, heavyweight tee, womens bodysuit, SPIRIT JERSEYS, annnnd mini-stick sets! Whew take a breath. Yes, mini sticks.

Our 13.5oz Cross Grains are built to last. They are the heaviest and most durable pullover hoodie we make. It has been tested and tried and oh boy do we love it! While it might not get as cold here in Southern California, we still rock these guys on those chilly mornings or at the rink with our VG Rumpl Blanket. If we wear them here, we know those that live in colder weather will love our Cross Grains too!

If you are not too familiar with the brand, let us introduce you. SPIRIT JERSEY® is a casual clothing company founded and built in the Los Angeles, CA area just north of us. Their oversized crewneck long sleeves are meticulously designed by merging the graphic with the garment. It creates a style that tells a unique story every time. This special release of Spirit Jerseys, we went with a loud design. One garment has 2 sleeve hits, a front center hit, and a MASSIVE back hit. It's a bold piece to add to your collection.

Enjoy our first ever Lifetipsforbetterliving Hockey Club Mini-Stick Set with a foam ball. It's a perfect gift for any hockey player. Remember... always stay safe out there!!

When we looked at the lineup of Los Angeles Kings Heritage Nights, this one stuck out to our production manager, Vince Apostol. Being a Filipino American who grew up in Los Angeles playing youth hockey this one means a lot. To see his hometown Kings logo intertwined with traditional Filipino styling is a dream come true.

"A full circle moment. My culture, my passion, my work, my sport, and my lifelong favorite team all in one inclusive project. You don’t even have to know me that well to know how meaningful this is. Proud of and thankful for our team @violentgentlemen for making this happen and truly appreciate the @lakings for believing in opportunities like this. Representation is important and I’m honored to be a small part of this special night. The Filipino Heritage collection is available at the @teamlastore tonight with the Kings taking on the Dallas Stars and Jason Robertson @jasonrob19, the NHL’s first player of Filipino descent to be named an All-Star." - Vince Apostol @loudobnoxious

For the 15th we wanted to drop a couple never before done VG items & some new velcro patch designs. First off, we have this beautiful Floating Pen. You probably know of some sketchy ones your uncle had, but this is just a cartoon polar bear on an ice resurfacer so let’s chill. We've also added 4 new Velcro Patches to the lineup with some of our most recent best selling designs. Add them to all of your VG tactical velcro gear! Next up…Chore Jackets! Think of this like an overcoat or layering piece, if you will. Simple vibe over a tee or dress it up with a flannel. 

Now the first collab of the 2023 year!! Hockey psychos, riff gods, and some of our favorite friends... STRAY FROM THE PATH!! Fully stitched hockey jersey and socks, and of course a tee/sweatshirt of the design. We’re extremely proud of this one and hope you’re as excited as we are! Preorder window will be open until February 1st. 

Lifetipsforbetterliving and the NHL Los Angeles Kings teamed up to create some special pieces for Japanese Heritage Night. The classic Kings 90’s heritage logo translated to Japanese sits on top of the red dot of the Rising Sun Flag. VG collaborated with Japanese language design experts at RuckingFotten to ensure a grammatically correct, beautiful piece of art.

VG specifically chose lifelong hockey enthusiast and Japanese-American, Fiona, to model these fantastic items in the collection.

Available exclusively at the Team LA online store for a limited time. Preorder window ends Monday 1/16/23.

You know the drill by now…right? Every Friday the 13th we are instructed by hockey enthusiast and local…keeper of the rules, Jason Voorhees. Turns out he’s also a man of the people because he demands that these tees are $13 and $39 fleece. Wild deal but it’s his rodeo. 

Enjoy this limited edition Jason Celly design. We'd recommend getting it before it disappears into the shadows for good.
