Grays Sticks

Grays Hockey Sticks — Every Profile, Every Player

Grays is one of the oldest and most respected names in hockey. Founded in 1855, the brand has been at the forefront of stick design for over 170 years — and the current range reflects that heritage with a lineup built around specific bow profiles, each engineered for a different playing style and level.

At The Hockey Shed we stock the full Grays range, from beginner junior sticks through to elite-level graphene-enhanced models used at international level. Every profile in the Grays range is built around a specific bow shape and head design, so choosing the right stick starts with understanding which profile suits your game.

Graphene Technology

Across the mid-to-high end of the Grays range, sticks are built with graphene-enhanced construction. The higher the model number within a profile, the more advanced the graphene integration and carbon layup.

Junior Grays Sticks

Grays produces a strong junior range across all profiles. See the Grays Junior collection for the full junior range.
