CHICAGO, IL, September 20, 2026 — With hockey rivalry romance novels driving renewed interest in rivalry-themed couples costumes this Halloween, Vivid Volt today announced a personalized shorts pairing designed for couples leaning into the trend.
The pairing uses original, brand-created sayings inspired by hockey rivalry and team culture rather than any copyrighted names or dialogue, giving couples a costume-adjacent option that avoids trademark or copyright issues tied to specific books or shows.
Each pair can be embroidered with the couple's own wording, allowing for a personalized take on the trend rather than a generic costume set.
"People want to lean into the trend without just buying something with someone else's characters printed on it," said Victoria Nupen, founder of Vivid Volt. "We built something that nods to it without copying it."
The pairing is available now at vividvolt.shop starting at $58 per pair.
