Chris Chelios played with edge that never dulled.

He defended with intensity, closed gaps quickly, and made opponents earn every inch of ice. Chelios combined physical play with sharp awareness, reading developing pressure and responding without hesitation. His competitiveness did not fade with time. It sharpened.

He became known for durability, fire, and a standard that refused to lower.

ZippyBack™ snaps securely onto most baseball-style caps using its patent-pending design. It’s built to stay in place once attached and is intended for long-term wear or collection.

Because each piece is a limited-edition collectible, attach or remove with care to preserve its condition. Minor contact with the plastic back tab during placement is normal.

Compatible cap placements:

  • Back: Adjustable plastic, cloth, or custom-fit closures
  • Side: Either side of the cap
  • Visor: Front or side edge

ZippyBack™ can be repositioned or removed when needed, but it’s not designed for frequent swapping.

This is a limited production release created as a tribute to the player. Once it sells out, it will not be restocked or reproduced.

ZippyBack™ is licensed for player name and number only. Team names and logos are not used.

Colorways are era-inspired and produced in limited quantities. Once a specific name-and-color edition sells out, it is permanently retired.

Each ZippyBack™ collectible features a unique, permanently laser-engraved serial number.

No two ZippyBack™ collectibles share the same serial number. Each serial number authenticates the piece as an original within its series.

Once issued, a serial-numbered ZippyBack™ is never duplicated or reissued, making each piece unique to that specific collectible.

Serial numbering confirms that every ZippyBack™ is a distinct collectible, not a mass-produced accessory.

A circular logo with a hockey player silhouette and the words Honour the Past at the top, The Alumni in the center, and Since 1988 at the bottom.
ZippyBack™ is manufactured under license by the NHL Alumni Association (NHLAA). ZippyBack™ is an independent collectible brand and is not an official NHL or team-licensed product.
