      The complete inaugural release of Rafters Series 1 brings together a curated group of players whose careers represent defining moments, influence, and achievement in professional hockey.

      This boxed set captures the complete Series 1 collection in a limited-edition collector release.

      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 edition is part of The Rafters Series 1 set.

      To hockey fans, “the rafters” are sacred. They’re where the game’s greatest names live forever — raised above the ice, beyond seasons, beyond eras.

      Rafters Series 1 is available individually or as a complete eight-player set. Once sold out, Series 1 is permanently retired.

      No restocks. No reissues.

      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.

      Built for Hockey Fans

      ZippyBack™ creates limited-edition, snap-on collectibles designed to be worn on your cap.

Every purchase directly supports Alumni health, wellness, and transition programs — helping to Honour the Past while supporting those who built the game.
