===Logo and jerseys===
[[File:San Jose Sharks 2021 Wordmark Logo.png|thumb|The current wordmark logo for the San Jose Sharks, introduced in the 2020–21 NHL season.]]
The Sharks' iconic logo of a shark chomping on a hockey stick has been in use since their inaugural 1991–92 season, with slight modifications prior to the 2007–08 season. The triangle on the logo references the Bay Area's [[Red Triangle (Pacific Ocean)|Red Triangle]] near the Pacific Ocean. The Sharks also use various partial and alternate logos based on the primary logo.

The original Sharks' road jerseys were teal with white, gray and black striping and featured white block lettering with black trim. Home uniforms were white with teal, gray and black striping and featured teal block lettering with black trim. Both jerseys included the team's "fin" logo on either shoulder and were used until the 1997–98 season.<ref name=SharksUniforms>{{cite web|title=Jerseys Through the Years|url=https://www.nhl.com/sharks/team/jersey-history|website=SJSharks.com|publisher=NHL Enterprises, L.P.|access-date=September 7, 2019|archive-date=August 3, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240803033729/https://www.nhl.com/sharks/news/sharks-unveil-new-cali-fin-uniforms|url-status=live}}</ref>

The Sharks introduced their future road (later home) jersey as an alternate during the 1997–98 season, featuring a darker teal base, wide gray sleeve and shoulder striping and modernized lettering. A white home (later road) counterpart was introduced the following season and featured teal and gray shoulder and sleeve stripes. In the 2001–02 season, the Sharks began wearing a black third jersey, featuring the return of the fin logo on the shoulders and minimalist teal and white sleeve stripes.<ref name=SharksUniforms/>

Upon switching to the [[Reebok]] Edge template in 2007, the Sharks introduced new home and away jerseys. The teal home jersey featured a black shoulder yoke while the white road jersey used a teal shoulder yoke. Both jerseys replaced gray with orange trim on the stripes and lettering, added numbers on the right chest, and featured the full-body (or "jumping") shark logo on the shoulders.<ref name=SharksUniforms/><ref>{{cite news|title=Sharks Unveil New Home and Road Sweaters|url=https://www.nhl.com/sharks/news/sharks-unveil-new-home-and-road-sweaters/c-474580|website=SJSharks.com|publisher=NHL Enterprises, LP|date=September 17, 2007|access-date=April 6, 2018|archive-date=April 6, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180406163707/https://www.nhl.com/sharks/news/sharks-unveil-new-home-and-road-sweaters/c-474580|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Before the 2008–09 season, the Sharks introduced a new black alternate jersey, without the contrasting shoulder yoke, tail stripes or orange trim. It also featured the jumping shark logo in front and the "SJ" alternate logo on the shoulders. The jersey served as the basis of their new set introduced before the 2013–14 season, which removed the shoulder yoke, orange accents, and tail stripes while adding neckline laces. The front numbers were replaced with the Sharks' 25th-anniversary logo prior to the 2015–16 season.<ref name=SharksUniforms/>

Following the switch to [[Adidas]]' AdiZero template in 2017, the Sharks kept much of their basic look save for the replacement of the "jumping shark" logo in favor of the "screaming shark" logo (home jersey) and "SJ" logo (road jersey) on the shoulder. The slogan "This Is Sharks Territory" was added inside the neckline.<ref name=SharksUniforms/> The black alternates were retired prior to the season, but in 2018, a new black jersey was introduced. Known as the "Stealth" jersey, it featured a slightly different rendition of the primary Sharks logo, an updated version of the original "fin" logo on the shoulders and stylized [[circuit board]] sleeve striping.<ref name=SharksStealth>{{cite web|url=https://www.nhl.com/sharks/news/sharks-unveil-stealth-design-announce-third-jersey--stealth-nights/c-300331636 |title=Sharks Unveil Stealth Design, Announce Third Jersey & Stealth Nights |website=San Jose Sharks |date=September 23, 2018 |access-date=September 7, 2019|archive-date=July 24, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200724171314/https://www.nhl.com/sharks/news/sharks-unveil-stealth-design-announce-third-jersey--stealth-nights/c-300331636 |url-status=live}}</ref> The Stealth uniforms were not used in the 2020–21 season as the Sharks opted to wear their "Reverse Retro" and "Heritage" alternate uniforms in the shortened season (see descriptions below).

The Sharks participated in the [[2015 NHL Stadium Series|2015 Stadium Series]] by wearing a tricolor jersey of teal, white and black accented by the primary Sharks logo in front and a new "Northern California" alternate logo on the shoulders. The back of the jersey remained teal and featured larger lettering.<ref name=SharksUniforms/>

During the 2015–16 season, as part of their 25th anniversary, the Sharks wore a slightly modified version of their original teal jerseys for a few home games. These uniforms were brought back in 2021 for the Sharks' 30th anniversary, albeit modified to the AdiZero cut.<ref name=SharksUniforms/><ref>{{cite news|title=Sharks bring back Heritage jerseys for 30th anniversary celebration|url=https://www.nhl.com/news/san-jose-sharks-bring-back-heritage-jerseys-for-30th-anniversary/c-319823386|publisher=National Hockey League|date=December 17, 2020|access-date=January 19, 2021|archive-date=December 16, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201216224057/https://www.nhl.com/news/san-jose-sharks-bring-back-heritage-jerseys-for-30th-anniversary/c-319823386|url-status=live}}</ref>

The Sharks wore Reverse Retro alternate uniforms for the 2020–21 season. The design used was similar to the teal uniforms they wore from 1997 to 2007, but with a gray base and black stripes.<ref>{{cite news|title=Reverse Retro alternate jerseys for all 31 teams unveiled by NHL, adidas|url=https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-reveals-adidas-reverse-retro-jerseys/c-319633384|publisher=National Hockey League|date=December 1, 2020|access-date=December 5, 2020|archive-date=December 2, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211202005117/https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-reveals-adidas-reverse-retro-jerseys/c-319633384|url-status=live}}</ref>

The Sharks released new uniforms in 2022, featuring elements inspired from the team's original 1991–1998 uniform set. In addition, the Sharks changed their pants, gloves and home helmet to teal.<ref name="SJSharksEvolve" /><ref name="SJSharksNewUnis" /> The Sharks also unveiled a second "Reverse Retro" uniform based on the last uniforms worn by their Bay Area predecessors, the [[California Golden Seals]]. The design replaced the "Seals" wordmark with "Sharks" in teal and gold trim.<ref>{{cite news|title=NHL Reverse Retro jerseys for all 32 teams unveiled by adidas|url=https://www.nhl.com/news/2022-adidas-nhl-reverse-retro-jerseys-reveal/c-336511528|publisher=National Hockey League|date=October 20, 2022|access-date=October 20, 2022|archive-date=November 6, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221106153102/https://www.nhl.com/news/2022-adidas-nhl-reverse-retro-jerseys-reveal/c-336511528|url-status=live}}</ref>

In the 2023–24 season, the Sharks unveiled a new "Cali Fin" black alternate uniform, featuring the updated fin logo as the main crest, along with a modified version of the "Northern California" shoulder patch adopted from the 2015 Stadium Series uniform. In addition to teal and white stripes, a teal yarn-dye-esque striping pattern adorned the sleeves, tail and socks.<ref>{{cite news|title=Sharks unveil new Cali Fin uniforms |url=https://www.nhl.com/sharks/news/sharks-unveil-new-cali-fin-uniforms|publisher=National Hockey League|date=January 25, 2024|access-date=January 26, 2024|archive-date=January 26, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240126145806/https://www.nhl.com/sharks/news/sharks-unveil-new-cali-fin-uniforms}}</ref> Also during the season, the Sharks began wearing their teal helmets on road games as well, as part of a new NHL mandate that allowed teams to wear colored helmets on road games as long as they were in a different color from the home team.<ref>{{cite news|title=Sharks Are Latest NHL Team to Wear Colored Helmets With White Uni |url=https://uni-watch.com/2023/12/01/sharks-are-latest-nhl-team-to-wear-colored-helmets-with-white-uni/|publisher=Uni Watch|date=December 1, 2023|access-date=November 16, 2024}}</ref>
