thebiggoalie Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Keener made the kit for my white Liberty Gretzky jersey (Mike did the work), and it came out absolutely perfect. Those look beautiful. I even like the Ozzy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kolbe31 Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Thanks! I was very impressed with his work. It was actually reviews from folks on this board that sent me his way. The Osgood was a last minute choice and I had a bit of buyers remorse after sending it off, but once I got it back, I was really happy with how it looked. Especially in person, that orange really pops out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dude_Abides Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Very nice haul! Always love a 2002-2004 Team Canada. Nice choice on Yzerman. All very nice jerseys...well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

architecht13 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 This will sound positively ridiculous, but who is Keener and how do I get a hold of them for '12 Stars jersey since I can't get a hold of Blakes? Also, do the Kings use nameplates? Or are they direct to the jersey? JB has a really nice Kopi throwback Gold/Purple and it looks like the letters are direct - just want to make sure it's proper.

Keener Jerseys is in Winnipeg. I'm waiting on my first order to be returned, but from what I've seen of his work, he's the man. His attention to detail is amazing and adding custom touches like a Gretzky double tag or a missing shield is no problem. I think all will agree, a safe bet indeed.

LAK74 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 KeenerJerseys.com Kings do not use nameplates. On the vintage gamers, both the top and bottom layers of each letter are individually sewn directly to the jersey, so there are 2 rows of stitching visible from the inside of the jersey, not just one. (If you're picky about that sort of thing.) JB's are probably not like that, but it still looks the same anyway from the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you actually tried calling Blakes? They're a bit of a mom and pop company and they've always responded when I've called. Their # is (972) 278-1183.

May send them a blank victory green when i grab one later this spring to have it ready for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 While we're on the topic of keener, does anybody know if he is able to, or willing to recreate a stacked twill crest? I'm not to satisfied with my options so far and seeing some of his work and attention to detail I feel like he could nail it if he can do that stuff.

I'm not to satisfied with my options so far and seeing some of his work and attention to detail I feel like he could nail it if he can do that stuff. I think the answer is probably two-fold... does he have the skills/equipment? Yes, probably. Is he legally allowed to recreate a trademarked/copyrighted logo? No, probably not. And then thirdly, actually... Will he? I won't speculate on that one way or the other, you'd have to ask him.

JoeM7392 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Good points, I sent him an email. Wasn't considering the copyright stuff since its a long defunct team, but I'd have to imagine the parent team still holds its rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 I am just excited to get my first Kings jersey! Also cool that JB had them. Are his customs decent? Usually retail Kings lettering is noticeably off no matter who the customizer is. But these vintage ones that JB has look almost exactly like the gamers. If you want to be super picky, the bottom white layer of the letters is microscopically thicker than on the gamers, but it's very, very subtle and hard to notice unless you do a side-by-side comparison.
