Fans of Heated Rivalry will soon be able to purchase Shane Hollander's viral look from Episode 2. The announcement was made via Instagram on Wednesday morning with one simple sentiment: "We're releasing the fleece."
Played by Hudson Williams, Hollander is a Montreal Metros hockey star with a quiet but hardworking drive for his athletic career. Throughout the show, he reps several iconic looks created by costumer designer Hanna Puley.
In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Puley explained the process behind creating Hollander's signature style. "I wanted to make something that felt wearable, something that felt comfortable, and something that would contrast with what Ilya was wearing,” Puley said.
His Team Canada Sochi Olympics cardigan worn in the second episode sparked immediate attention online, with many fans encouraging Team Canada to make their own version as official team merchandise for the upcoming Winter Olympics. Over 4,000 people signed a petition to make the dream a reality until show producers responded.

Jacob Tierney and Brendan Brady, Heated Rivalry executive producers and co-presidents of Accent Aigu Entertainment, struck a deal with the Province of Canada apparel company to create an official fleece merch design. In a statement made on Wednesday morning, the pair reiterated the importance of fan satisfaction.
“Fans are the heart of Heated Rivalry, and this is entirely because of them. We’ve listened closely to what they’ve been asking for, and the fleece jacket has been at the top of that list,” said Tierney and Brady
The iconic jacket is an all-white fleece zip up with a red Canadian maple leaf on each shoulder. Across the back is the country's name in a bold red font. The look was replicated by several fans online, most notably Sylvie Bouffard, who took to TikTok to share her rendition.
Now that an official jacket will be available for purchase, fans are losing their minds, taking to the comments of the announcement post to share their enthusiasm.
