Can you imagine a time where the Flaming C was the best selling sports jersey in North America? That really did happen at one point in time. 😳

In spring 2004, amidst their playoff run… The Calgary Flames newest jersey introduced at the start of that season was so highly sought after, that CCM stopped production on all other jerseys in order to keep up with demand for Flames jerseys. An estimated 85,000+ were said to have sold that spring.

The Flames jersey outsold the New York Yankees, the Green Bay Packers, the Chicago Bears, the Los Angeles Lakers, the Boston Bruins, and the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Safe to say, this jersey has etched itself in the history books and has Aura even 20 years later. 🔥🔥
