    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? 

    Thanks for looking out. I saw these but, looking for something in my size. 

  2. Looking for the following Rangers Blue authentic jerseys in size 46 or 48:

    Rangers Blue Reebok 6100 - Jagr or Blank

    Rangers Blue ProPlayer - Fleury, Richter, or Blank

    Rangers Blue Koho/CCM (from the early 2000s) - Leetch, Bure, or Blank

    Didn't we already have this conversation like a month ago??

    I thought so but, I thought it was on Facebook and was searching through old threads there. Either way there’s enough red flags for me to just stay away.

  4. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Wayne-Gretzky-Double-Starter-Pro-Authentic-New-York-Rangers-Liberty-Jersey-sz-56/143627646689?hash=item2170dff6e1:g:g18AAOSwj19e4CBc

    Looks fairly legit. Listing says the wash-tag showing where it was made was removed.

    Only thing throwing me is the Gretzky Set 2 tagging on the hem and the GRETZKY tag by the neck. Typically only seen on the knock-offs but, the material and customization look good to me.  

    Also, appreciate if anyone could verify the accuracy of the customization. Compared to some pictures of games the holes in the 9s look accurate but, the red-border on the numbers seem wider than on gamers. 

  5. Has anyone sent in any packages and received confirmation of delivery/ acceptance by EPS?

    We're nearing the deadline for the Spring Sale and wanted to check in. Any chance of possibly extending the sale?

  6. Finally! The holiest of holy grails (for me). Authentic blue 2003-2004 vintage series Rangers jersey in a 48. So stoked. 
    First time I posted in want list for this was back in like 2015, 2016. And I think I’ve only seen one other authentic for sale in all that time and never in a size 48. 


    That would compete the collection of every Rangers jersey style worn from 91-92 to now with the exception of an authentic white liberty, which albeit pricy are still available regularly. 

    Debating on getting this done as a Jagr, Messier, Nedved, Kovalev, Lindros, Leetch. Leaning towards doing the white as Jagr and blue as Messier as they were the NYR all-star representatives that year.

    Usually it’s about the same as their normal wait. 6-8 weeks for teams they currently do, 8-12 for teams they don’t, and add up to 3 weeks if they get really busy. 

    Maybe quicker turnaround since they wont be busy doing jerseys for pro teams. A guy can dream
     

  8. The good news I was waiting for! 
    This is the year I send all those jerseys I’ve been holding onto. Figuring about 8 total. 
    what’s the typical turnaround time on the spring sales? More curious than anything. 

  9. Not a fan of using a single template for all teams. For example, Rangers jerseys have a unique design on the front that doesn't necessarily work with their logo.

    My guess is maybe Adidas just promotes the less-prominent colors and secondary logos for each team. 

    What I would like to see is for each team to get a retro/ throwback set that is worn from Thanksgiving through the Winter Classic and promote more color-on-color matchups.

    From a business perspective, having one generic logo seems like so much less risk. Doing all these jerseys with team logos seems like they are trying way too hard for a meaningless event. 

    Going back to a generic logo will also keep fans happy. No longer have to worry about not being able to find some obscure jersey like a Coyotes white or something.

    I miss Reebok.

    Agreed. This must have been some fancy-pants consultants saying that fans would prefer the team logo because it helps them better identify with the team. 

    The 2011-2012 styles were modern without being overdone but, everything since hasn't quite been my cup of tea. 

  11. Worth another shot...

    Looking for:

    • Rangers Vintage-series authentic from 2003-2004 in any size and any player. Would prefer Messier, Jagr, Leetch, Kovalev, Lindros, Nedved in a 48 but, open to anything.
    • Rangers Blue Reebok 6100 in size 46 or 48 - Customized as Jagr 68 or blank
    • Rangers Blue Koho in size 46 or 48 - Customized as Leetch 2 or blank

    Let me know if anyone has anything or has any leads.

    Im toying with the idea of making a 1998 Skills Competition jersey. I think it is weird to have an authentic jersey + add the flag patch, but it is a cool rarity. What does everyone think?

    Example:

    https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/zigmund-palffy-of-the-new-york-islanders-in-action-during-news-photo/246558?adppopup=true 

    I love the idea of the All-Star skills jerseys since they're fairly rare. From my count the only times that a patch was worn for the All-Star game was in '98 and not again until 2016. It has since become an annual tradition to sport the patch. I have one done up as Gretzky with the canadian flag since I'm a sucker for patches and it was during his '98 season when he came in 4th in Art Ross. Also, will be doing up a McDonagh from the '16 game and from the '17 game which will be a triple patch (Rangers 90th, NHL 100th, and All-Star skills).

     

     

  13. That's not promising in regards to Keener. Ended up having to travel a bunch and never got my jerseys sent out sooooo....

    Anyone know if Arenawear is able to do any/ all of the below? I am shooting them an email but, I know they typically are not super responsive and figured I would ask the shirtheads. 

    Can they do any/all of the below? Is it better to go through NHL store or directly through them? Is turnaround still typically 1-2 weeks?

    • Rangers TBTC Authentic - Customize as Messier 11 with nameplate and Captains; C
    • Rangers Vintage White Authentic - Customize as Jagr 68 with Alternate Captain's A - Did they use a namemplate?
    • Rangers Blank Koho Blue Authentic - Replace RANGERS on front crest with NEW YORK (as per the 9/11 game) and customize as Leetch 2 with Alternate Captain's A
    • Rangers Blue Starter Authentic - Sew down Kovalev 27 kit with Captain's C
    • Rangers Blank Koho to be done as a Fleury 14 with Captain's C
  14. Sounds like prototypes have less value than most people would think and there's a split amongst customizing vs keeping blank.

    Not sure if I'll keep it, sell it, or customize. I mean I think it's neat but, at the same time it looks exactly the same as the other Rangers jerseys of the era. 

    If anything would customize as Leetch or Richter as there term spanned any time these would have been considered.

    An idea I've thought of would be to personally customize it. I wouldn't feel as bad since these were never worn on ice but, I also don't want to ruin such a unique jersey. The collector in me will probably win out

  15. Saw a Rangers prototype jersey recently that was made by Nike. Prior to league consolidating all jerseys under Pro-Player in 1999-2000 season, teams had their choice of manufacturer: CCM, Nike, Starter. My guess would be this was a prototype to show the jersey design if Rangers went with Nike. Given the collar style I am guessing this is from between 1996-1999.

    Interested to hear thoughts on how prototype jerseys are viewed in the hobby.

    Is there interest in them? Are they simply viewed as novelty items? Since they were never worn in any games, what would people recommend for customizing - someone from that era or anything goes? 

    I think I had seen some All-Star prototypes and maybe a Lightning jersey. Anyone know of any others?

  16. Been going back and forth with Keener for a few months to get some jerseys customized.

    Due to my laziness haven't shipped them out yet. Before sending them asked Keener if there was any truth to them shutting down customization orders and/or should customers expect longer than usual wait times? His response was to get them there as soon as we can and that turnaround time should be the same. Planning to (finally) ship out my order tomorrow 

    • Rangers TBTC Authentic - Customize as Messier 11 with Captains; C
    • Rangers Vintage White Authentic - Customize as Jagr 68 with Alternate's A
    • Rangers Blank Koho Blue Authentic - Replace RANGERS on front with New York and customize as Leetch 2 w/A
    • Rangers Blue Starter - Sew down Kovalev 27 kit with Captain's C (as worn in a pre-season game)
    • 94-97 Eastern All-Star - Stitch on crest and customize as Messier 11
    • and maybe one more Rangers Blank Koho to be done as a Fleury 14 with Captain's C (as worn in a pre-season game)
  17. Not sure where else to post but, this seemed to be the most relevant spot. 

    I have searched far and wide for a 2003-2004 Rangers Vintage authentic blue jersey to complete my Rangers authentics collection. with no luck.

    As an alternative I am considering  the Mitchell and Ness jerseys that replicate the style used in 70's. From my research, the biggest difference between M&N and the 2003-2004 versions are the crest. Trim thickness may be slightly off but, not significantly.

    http://www.nhluniforms.com/Rangers/Rangers18.html - 70's version

    http://www.nhluniforms.com/2003-04/Rangers.html - 2003-2004 version

    So basically wanted to get thoughts on a Frankenstein jersey using the M&N jersey, replacing the crest with the modern-style used on the 2003-2004 jerseys, and then customizing with someone from the 2003-2004 roster - Messier, Lindros, Jagr, Nedved, Kovalev, etc? It would be an "authentic copy" of a reproduction of the actual jersey that was the source of inspiration for the Vintage-jerseys set (i think). Too crazy or just crazy enough to work?

    It’s long overdue, so I won’t complain, but weren’t their previous spring sales 20%?

    And if I remember correctly, if you sent them at least 20 jerseys, they would take off the same percentage, spring sale or not. 

    I wanna say your correct that it used to be 20% off. I think that the 20+ jersey discount is available any time and I’ve seen people package up a big number to get the discount (reddit). 

     

    Will be sending a batch of jerseys to get done after long last - TBTC Rangers, Vintage Rangers White and Blue, 2000 ASG North America goalie, 94 ASG East, Koho Rangers blue
