The Penguins wore Reebok Edge (Air-Knit) jerseys - a style and cut that was introduced at the beginning of the 2007-08 NHL season - for the fifth consecutive season. For the second consecutive year the Penguins wore an Alternate jersey patterned after the team's inaugural season jerseys' color scheme.
The Reebok wordmark was featured on the back neckline with a white wordmark sewn onto black twill on the Home (black) jerseys, a black wordmark sewn onto white twill on the Road (white) jerseys and a white wordmark sewn onto navy blue twill on the Alternate jerseys. The inside neckline of each jersey features a size tag with a Canadian flag logo above the "Made in Canada" in three languages (English, French and Spanish) then the 7187 manufacturer's model number indicating the 2.0 Edge model with an "A" or "H" after the model number. Inside the left side seam is a manufacturer's washing instructions tag.
For the first time, JerseyTRAK technology from Gleason Technology was sewn inside the base of the fight strap which allows the Penguins equipment staff to scan each jersey before and after the game in which it is used.
Jerseys were lettered and numbered by Pro Knitwear of Pittsburgh, PA. Each jersey featured a set tag sewn inside the rear hem.
J&J Distributing of Ellwood City, PA purchased all sets of game worn regular season and Stanley Cup Playoffs sets directly from the Pittsburgh Penguins and marketed the jerseys to the hobby.
