Arkansas Hockey Apparel
Three defunct Arkansas teams, two from opposite banks of the same river and one from Texarkana, on shirts, hoodies, jerseys, and drinkware.
Arkansas got professional hockey in 1998 and, for one winter, had two teams on opposite banks of the Arkansas River. Texarkana had a team of its own a few years later. None of them is still playing. We make apparel for all three, in many cases the only apparel that exists for them anywhere.
We're a family-run small business bringing back the designs and the histories of long-lost hockey teams from Arkansas and across the US and Canada.

Hockey Teams in Arkansas
Professional hockey in Arkansas was a short story, and most of it happened within a few miles of downtown Little Rock.
Little Rock and North Little Rock
The Arkansas GlacierCats arrived first, joining the Western Professional Hockey League in 1998 and playing in Little Rock.
A year later the Arkansas RiverBlades opened across the river in North Little Rock, an East Coast Hockey League team in a new arena. The market was not big enough for both. The GlacierCats folded in 2000 after two seasons, and the RiverBlades played on until 2003.
Texarkana: the Bandits
The Border City Bandits played one Central Hockey League season, 2000–01, at the Four States Arena in Texarkana, and the league terminated the franchise before the season was over.
The three teams on this page are gone, and that's the part worth wearing.
