CJ Matthews Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 The Rangers posted pictures of 3 different teams jerseys with customization on their Snapchat account the other day but I didn't screenshot them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Cannon Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 So here's the bad news that some of you probably expected... The Authentics being sold aren't the ones being worn on the ice. Looks like we have another example of on-ice jerseys being a b**** to acquire... First image is my jersey and the 2nd is one of the league's teaser pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Got my pair of US jerseys in yesterday (Thanks for the assist, Dude) and I really like them. The "Adidas stripes" actually work well with the whole USA theme and the material is pretty nice. Not sure of the durability yet obviously, but they aren't bad overall like I had feared.

TMLFAN Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I knew it. A Canadian made indo-edge. Lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I wonder what else is different. Im not a fan of the one layer shield on the chest of my white USA, I'm going to be a little upset if the on ice ones are better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perceptor Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Ugh, but I still like my jersey. Gonna order the white one. For the customizations on those jerseys above, are those actual mesh or simulated mesh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Cannon Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 The weird thing is i'm not seeing much of a difference between the teaser pics that the NHL released and comparing my Sweden and NA to those pics besides that one patch. Material seems similar everywhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im happy with the blue, but I dont like that little shield on the white and the kiss cut or whatever letters for USA also on the white. I know it's a popular way of doing this stuff but having the inner edge of that blue not sewn down will bother me a little. It would seem odd if just little patches and stuff like that are the only differences between these and the on ice stuff.

JoeM7392 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) This is what I'm talking about, in case my explanation sounds as dumb as I think it does. The shield is ok I guess, I'm just Used to them being a little beefier. Edited August 26, 2016 by JoeM7392 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 For those awaiting bigger sizes, I took it upon myself to ask the Jersey Baron why there are no bigger sizes available. He had no idea why there weren't any nor whether there will be. Well, they are losing out on the sale of at least two jerseys to yours truly.

Seems like they didn't come through on a lot of orders from companies. I imagine IceJerseys is one of those since they wound up with only Canada and Finland authentics.

furiousd Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 So far I'm not regretting sitting this one out. It kills me that they apparently are screwing up the distribution side. From a company that's sold millions of jerseys worldwide... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Cannon Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 So I have sizes 50, 52, and 54 to compare to each other if anyone needs any sizing help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 That USA shield looks like a Pro-Weave patch. It also seems like Adidas just flat-out copied this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shandy_man Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Just got my Team North America jersey yesterday. Looks good and not as bad as I thought it would be. Sadly a bit too small for my liking. if anyone is searching for a Sz 54 in black give me a shout. I'm likely sending it back by the end of next week.

LAK74 Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 I didn't realize this until now, but I think the bulk of the material on these WCOH jerseys is the same stuff that is on the front panel of the 2015 NHL ASG jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First image is my jersey and the 2nd is one of the league's teaser pics. Sorry for quoting photos - I know baby Jesus hates it... i was at pro hockey life yesterday and the premier versions of the jersey had the stitched 23 logo. So perhaps you guys have the on ice versions and the league only used a premier in the photo. This joke of a tournament is starting soon so we will find out quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
