Brilliant! Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 Adidas has pulled this Parley nonsense in MLS for the last few years. The jerseys looked cheesy and counterfeit. The NHL ones don't look any different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonGardens Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) NHL tries too hard sometimes/often. The game has organic roots, a less contrived approach is better. And if they cared about jerseys impact on the environment they wouldn't make them in/support economically the countries that are among the biggest contributors to the problem (and that's NOT Canada or the USA).

The customizing was an absolute joke. Plastic letters and numbers. Sent it right on back. Good to know. I talked to a couple people who ordered from them recently and they said the quality was fine. I ordered one and will post pics when I get it. If it sucks I’ll send it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever you get from Fanatics will be garbage plastic. I thought of that and actually asked. They said they get a lot directly from adidas pre customized of star players (Burns, Karlsson) but then will send away a bunch of blanks to their customizer to get others done based on demand.

Phil the Thrill Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 I mean it depends how much of a stickler you are for accuracy. A lot of us here are pretty paranoid, so we think of anything related to Fanatics/Adidas Indos as garbage. Mass public is another story.

I read somewhere that 80% of all the plastic that is floating in the Pacific Ocean is from China. Yet we are the ones who are forced to drink out of those awful paper straws. Yes I know first world problems lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil the Thrill Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 To be fair the jersey is made in Canada and is probably better than the Adidas Indos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey now he’s been pretty good lately! Not just talking about the offensive numbers he’s been putting up. Him and Karlsson played most of the Tampa game and shut down their top guys. But anyway I’m off topic. I saw fanatics and NHL shop have the all the blanks up now. Question on for you guys. The fanatics replicas have the ASG patch on the left shoulder. But I read online it will be on the right shoulder. Also when watching the Preds/Hawks game yesterday at intermission there was some bit where Subban gave Jossi and Rinne their jerseys and the patch was on the right shoulder. What gives? Edit: also just trying to be helpful but if you guys are looking to pick up the blanks and are Costco members you can buy $100 fanatics gift cards for $80 online. So $200 jersey for $160 plus tax Edited January 10, 2019 by joe2heatley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read it online it must be true. If you saw players handing each other’s jerseys with the patch location in the same place as you read online that corroborates the statement. I would never use a fanatics jersey as a reference for anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lankyman01 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) Well Stars fans, now is your chance to score what I assume they are advertising as your MiC Stars jersey!
