System of a Down have inexplicably teamed up with hockey fashion company Puck Hcky for a line of hockey-themed band merch that includes crested jerseys, hoodies, flannels, joggers, hats, raglans and T-shirts.
While the band have not spoken about the collaboration at length, the group's guitarist Daron Malakian is a known Edmonton Oilers fan, which somewhat explains the similarities between the team and SOAD's merch logos.
"System of a Down has been a unique band from the second they dropped their debut record, and everyone has realized this since that moment," Puck Hcky CEO Matt Marini said in a statement.
He added: "We here at Puck Hcky have been thrilled to be working with them… PLUS Daron is a HUGE hockey fan and played a big part in the creation of the designs! It has been a dream come true to work together, and there is more to come soon!"
