Van67 Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 It's been a while since I've gotten patches and removed the plastic. I noticed the ones I got recently have a thinner layer on the back. I tried boiling one and it wasn't like it used to be where it all peeled off easy. Is this thinner layer of plastic necessary to remove? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PensJerseys Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 If you want the new thinner plastic backing removed, I actually found the best way to do it is just to boil a pot of water and USING TONGS (or something similar) hold the patch over the rising steam. It will evaporate right off after a few minutes. However, I've found that they sew right down nice and easy even if you don't remove.

Van67 Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 The one I had, I did the old boiling water (patch in the pot) and used tweezers to start peeling and it was like it was liquid glue that needed to be peeled piece by piece. In turn I think I boiled the patch too much and I'm probably just going to order another one and not bother trying to remove the back. It almost feels like it's glue meant to adhere the patch when it's pressed prior to sewing down the edges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawks2797 Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 I used a hair dryer on the hot setting on the thicker plastic backed ones. Came off no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I send them with the plastic backing still on them to EPS, they remove the backing free of charge and then sew it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackhawks used these regular style practice jerseys at the 2016 stadium series game in Minnesota minus the Athetico patch, but with he stadium series patch. So I just did that instead. However, if you just go to Athetico's website, you can get the font style: http://www.athletico.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame I couldn't find one of the WC practice jerseys from last year with the old school crest! Did you pick up a red practice jersey? The one I'll be getting is grey. Did you have the rear done up as well? The Athletico patch isn't terribly complicated so I wonder how difficult it would be to have it made?

I do have a red practice jersey, I did a Hjalmarsson and added the Stadium Series shoulder patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill just go to JB. Thanks guys Did you order one? I had one I had plans for but I just paid Coolhockey to add one to the jersey it was intended for. If you’re still in need, PM me.

Is Patch Collection the go-to for patches for most of you guys? I checked out NE's site and the prices seem pretty close between both. I might place an order with that promo code for a few that go with a few jerseys I have waiting to be shipped out.

Lumpjaw Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 (edited) I´m looking for a 100th Anniversary Stanley Cup patch and a 1998-99 Stanley Cup Patch for two Sabres jerseys that I´ll send out soon. Any recomendations on where to shop at, that is shipping to Sweden for a good price, or does anyone one here have a spare of each to sell me? EDIT: 100, I mean 100th Anniversary Edited November 27, 2017 by Lumpjaw Changed patch details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumpjaw Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Looked around a bit, will I be good to go with the ones that patchcollection.com has? They have good prices and affordable shipping too. Repros I´d bet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to search for some gamers and compare the patches to see if you'll be happy with the accuracy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courtesy of that sale, here's my haul. 5/6 patches are intended for jerseys that I don't have yet. The Pens/100th are for a black Pens I'll be having customized as a San Diego native Chad Ruhwedel (since I can't afford to pay ~$1,000 for one of his gamers) while the Kings/100th/Bob Miller will be for a white Kings Kopitar.

spudrock512 Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I found this patch on eBay. I ordered it and and think it is an original. What do you think? The one on the blue is the one I got, the one on the red is form a Fedorov Game Worn jersey. Thoughts??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 If not its one of the best reproductions I have ever seen. Only difference I think I see is the three black shadow-stripes on the upper part of the Cup, they appear thicker on the one you got. That could just be variation between originals just as easily, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The patch on the blue is different than the one you sent me the link to. Both pictured here are original, the one you sent me the link to is a nice repo but still a repo.
