  1. Been sitting on this one for awhile.  Picked up the jersey about two years ago and finally got off my lazy Arse and finished it.  

    1976 Sittler NHL record 10 point game tribute jersey.  I got the jersey completely blank along with the front crest.  Made the kit and shoulder logos and sourced the Rawlings tag off an old baseball jersey.  Got the blue neck lace off an old pair of shoes I had and here we are.

    Thanks LAK74!  I was kind of hoping is was incorrect.  I'll change it out.

    That back 7 should be replaced as well.  shouldn't have the angle cut on the right side.  Honestly your better off just taking everything off and getting a whole new kit for it.

    Believe they do the Marlies as well - I actually reached out to CatStitch confirm and the guy there said they are doing the on ice jerseys now.

    Interestingly enough, looking at the auction from Real Sports, only Thornton's jersey also appeared to be done by CatStitch out of the jerseys that were put up for auction (13 total IIRC). Rest of the team appeared to still be SLC jobs, however could have just carried forward from 2019-2020.

    Yeah, they've been doing marlies for a while now.  I have a few Catstitch marlies jerseys and the nameplates on those are not serged either.  I looked up their area code and it looks like they are up in the Barrie/Orillia area.  Wonder why the Leafs changed from SLC.  Most likely just used the leftovers from last season but had to have a couple new ones made up.

    Awesome Canada jersey there. Always great seeing those.

    Got these done up recently.

    Seeing a Freddie jersey on here today has angered me more than I thought it would.  Freaking seeve.

  5. Ok, for me I think you got legit beef about the nameplate material on the Sharks.  He should have told you he doesn’t have the exact match especially since he had your jersey on hand. 
    I’ve seen Caps gamers from that era that have the numbers “smaller” and with positioning that matches your jersey.  Maybe the caps changed sizes at some point, maybe the jersey size plays a big role, no idea on that one but I’d be fine with what you got.

    Whalers also looks fine to me.  Maybe he spaced the letters a little too close together which is why it looks different but not something he should be forced to redo IMHO.

    not what you want to hear but I think he did a pretty good job on your stuff minus the Sharks nameplate.  No customizer that is not the team source will match a kit 100% and I know it’s been said a million and one times here but if you’re looking for 100% you need to stick with the team source.

  6. Although the Adidas made in Canada jerseys are not sold at retail they are out there to purchase.  As time passes more and more will eventually make their way out to the online marketplace and it’s not too difficult to find them now for most teams.  They are pricey but out there if you want one bad enough.  

  7. This kind of gimmicky crap is cool for teams like Dallas or Tampa or Nashville etc.  It's kinda fun to see new stuff being thrown out there but the original six teams with historic jerseys like the Leafs or Hawks better not try junk like this.

    To be honest, if you’re going to measure every aspect of a jersey and won’t be happy unless everything is perfect, just go to the actual customizer. I’m sure there are situations in which that isn’t possible (like someone going out of business), but in all other situations, use the right guy. Don’t use the wrong guy and then  be critical that it’s not exactly like someone else’s work.

    Stick this quote right to the front page of the website.

    The main thing that bugs me about EPS is that they surge their nameplates on all 4 sides, where a lot of teams don't surge the vertical sides (such as the Leafs). Based on this image, I would say the Hawks also don't surge the vertical edges.

    A big pet peeve of mine, but probably something you can ask them to not do.

    SLC doesn't do any serging.  The nameplates come from reebok/adidas serged top and bottom.  SLC and most other normal places just leave it as is and cut the nameplate to whatever length they need.  EPS has to be fancy.

    Question for you all, felt this thread was appropriate to ask:

    I got a jersey back from a customizer and it was damaged, had a pretty big pull on one sleeve and a small hole on the other.

    I emailed them and they told me there was no damage on the jersey when they customized it and then asked for pictures.

    I sent pictures and then was told they're not sure how the damage occurred, but if I were to get it repaired it would be barely noticeable and that they were sorry.

    I emailed them back basically saying this was unacceptable because I'm now stuck w/ a damaged jersey to which they never replied and I'm not really sure how to proceed.

    I thought about calling them but I'll probably just lose it and start yelling @ whoever I speak to, :lol:

    What would you guys do in this situation?

    If you paid through credit card you can try going through them to have your purchase refunded or if they say the damage wasn't done by them you can try getting the postal system involved if the package was insured.

    Other than that unless you want to go through small claims court you're SOL.

    It doesn't surprise me. We have a similar stores in Canada called Winners and Marshall's and I've heard of people finding Leafs 2.0s at these stores. I have no idea how their supply chains work, but discount stores just end up with the most random inventory. 

    There was also the case way back in 2011/2012 iirc, when SVP Sports got a bunch of TI 6100s and 2.0s for $60. Who knows how they got what they did (I still regret some of the jerseys I bought from there and subsequently sold).

    The infamous SVP sale.  Still get a tear in my eye every time I drive past one.

    Thanks for the mention. I do still have them but unfortunately there are both 52’s.

    Whilst I’m here, since I know there’s a few leafers about, can anyone point me in the direction of an 80’s Leafs (particulary an ‘86-87) or a ‘92-93 Killer? 

    NO, we can't because then you'll take them from us.

    I sent the guy a question, "didn't this sell yesterday?"

    He replied, "It is still available! The price was wrong on it before! That’s why it was re listed! Are you interested?"

    I said, "So did it sell and they just didn't pay? Or was it removed before it sold and relisted." I of course know that answer to that question, I was just curious what his response would be.

    He said, "It was sold and re listed after I noticed the price mistake. Let me know if you are interested still or want to make an offer. Comps have sold for way over the asking price!

    In which I replied, "So it sold, but then you didn't honor the sale?!?!?"

    I did not hear back from him after that.  I hate shady people.  I sold a jersey last week for at least $100 cheaper than what I thought it should have sold for.  Did a b**** and moan about it, of course I did. But I still sold and shipped it out because that is what you are supposed to do.  You win some and you lose some.

    "It was sold and re listed after I noticed the price mistake."  

    LMFAO.  More like it was sold and re-listed after some A hole clued me into the fact the jersey is worth a lot more than I sold it for.  Don't make it sound like a mistake when, in reality, you were ignorant to the actual value of what you were selling.
