Name might be easier to read, but number look cheaper imo, the extra black "layer" on the old jersey is nice Edited June 21, 2019 by tomtucker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just layered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just layered. I’m not sure about that. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but it looks to me that the letters and numbers are all single layer, with the colors dyed directly onto the twill. A line of stitching is run through the border between the 2 colors to simulate 2 separate layers, but I think it’s just one layer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack845 Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 LAK is right. Single layer, sublimated color with stitching between the "layers". Custom Crafted said it was done to save weight., but it's disappointing compared to the old triple layer numbers they had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate you backing me up here, so I kind of feel like a jerk for asking this, but weren’t the 3-“layer” numbers also just one layer sublimated? Well, at least for the Edges, and I don’t know how far back that would go. It seems that when the numbers get damaged from game use, the surface colors get scraped off, and you can see the white twill base underneath all the “layers,” like on this gamer: Anyone know for sure, and if so, how far back this one-layer construction went?

Van67 Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 I'm fairly certain Boston's 3-colour numbers had the middle colour sublimated and stiched around the edge of the second layer. (So 2-stacked, 3-colour just like the Blues used to do.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The picture I just posted is an Edge, and it looks to me that all the colors are sublimated. Where’s AngeloS76 when you need him? 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably, just leaving the sublimated numbers without the stitching would be cheaper, and lighter for that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are still correct LAK - the 3-layer stitch went away sometime before the Edge's came around, and since the Edge 1.0s. I can confirm the numbers and the nameplate are all sublimated with stitching to 'break-up' the layers. Savard Away Edge 1.0 prepped to game standards from Custom Crafted - numbers are 3 color sublimated on one layer with gold stitching and white stitching, nameplate is two color, with gold and black stitching. Team Issued Chara Winter Classic style jersey - two color sublimated with gold and brown stitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - the name plate letters are only supposed to be 2 color (also check out this Mei Grey game worn Backes with the 'A') - and a quick search of every other jersey they have available going back to the first generation 1.0s are all 2 color for the lettering - Would be interesting to learn more about that gamer LAK, when was it used?

LAK74 Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) Zach, thanks for the awesome pics and the confirmation! And the crappy A is from a Savard 07/08 1.0 as well! https://www.gamewornauctions.net/products/2007_08_Marc_Savard_Boston_Bruins_Game_Worn_Jersey_Team_Letter-4371-120.html Edited June 23, 2019 by LAK74 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
