The Heraklion Original Hockey Jersey is a Heraklion hockey jersey with your own custom name and number printed FREE, made in sizes XS to 6XL and four colors: Minoan Red, Fresco Blue, Aegean Navy and Ochre Gold. Bold red Minoan columns that widen toward the top, with black cushion capitals, stand on a stone stair on the chest crest, in front of a sky-blue dolphin fresco panel on an ochre wall under a bright Cretan sky. It is a proud Heraklion fan shirt and piece of sports apparel for the rink, game nights, travel and everyday wear.
The Artwork
This original Heraklion city design has one clear theme, a detailed original crest, a patterned yoke and clean patterned stripes, with open space so it stays sharp and easy to read:
- Crest: an arch-shaped scene of a Minoan palace portico inspired by Knossos: five tapering red columns, a light stone roof slab, an ochre wall, a fresco-style panel of leaping blue dolphins and bubbles, and stepped stone stairs, with a KNOSSOS banner
- Chest lettering: HERAKLION in bold collegiate block letters with a contrasting outline and drop shadow
- Yoke: a tone-on-tone pattern of small Minoan-style double spirals across the shoulders, edged with a trim line
- Sleeve and hem stripes: light bands of running double spirals between solid stripes
- Back: the matching patterned yoke and stripes, with your name arched across the shoulders and a big number below
It is an original 1life2live design with no flag, coat of arms, team, league or brand marks.
The story behind it
Just outside Heraklion lies Knossos, the great Bronze Age palace of the Minoans, known for its red tapering columns and lively frescoes of dolphins and sea life. Heraklion, the largest city of Crete, keeps the island’s ancient story alive in its museum and streets.
