- I posted almost a year ago about how ridiculous I thought the new Adidas designs were. My mind has changed on the topic.

I feel like this is the kind of guy that everyone has
Adidas sizes
42 - XX Small
44 - X Small
46 - Small
50 - Medium
52 - Large
54 - X Large
56 - XX Large
58 - XXX Large
60 - XXXX Large
Well done, Shannon. As someone who works for the Canucks selling jerseys, I like everything you said here.
Johnny Canuck thank you
If this is accurate then they run really small based on the ones I tried on
You sell jerseys ?
60 is XXXL, 58 doesn't exists
Three years later it is interesting to visit this video
5 years and same!
My brother -in- law is an equipment manager for an NHL team , he said the players all preferred Reebok over Adidas
Why is that
any Reason why???
He says the players felt less restricted while wearing Reebok and they held up better
@@keithholler3215 that's weird that Adidas would make the sweater to tight they use to own Reebok
@Liam Middleton I never wore hockey equipment let alone a game issued jersey of any kind over top of equipment so I have no opinion either way. I Just know what my brother in law says about what the players tell him
Your jersey collection is legendary my friend. I enjoy the looks from people down here when I wear my Bolts jersey to watch a game lol
Hey Shannon I know you probably wont see this but, this video made me buy my 1st ever authentic Jersey
Congrats.
He turned me on to Cool Hockey to get my new custom Adidas Flyers. He’s the Hockey Guy. Not trusting him is a 2 minute penalty.😂
Overall I like the Adidas jerseys better. Love the Avs and Sabres Adidas jerseys the best but plenty of very good ones. Minnesota and Edmonton have nice ones also.
VGK’s has grown on me overtime, not that bad of a Jersey actually. Pretty nice
The avs 3rd jersey (rockies logo) was one of the greatest Reebok jerseys, but the new avs standard jersey is also absolutely stellar. Hard for me!
Hockey Scouting Reports with Matt Levine I dknt really loke the new oilers one but i love the reebok oilers one tho
Hockey Scouting Reports with Matt Levine why do they hate the oilers those r dank
Hockey Scouting Reports with Matt Levine the third jerseys for Carolina r very cool. The coyotes r ok I wished they did something new new but it’s ok
I don't dislike the oilers jersey, I just find it weird that they look so much like an older islanders colour scheme.
Just the small color variations make the Adidas jerseys prettier than the Reebok.
You cannot beat the Canadian made Reebok 2.0
His green Dallas is a “Indo Edge”, due to the “Lime Green” Reebok neck band stripe
@@nickcata1465 late to the party. You're correct about most of the lime green neck size band. But I've seen some stadium series jersey's with the lime green sizing band. Not sure if I've seen photos with the lime green and a MiC together though. Wish Adidas would just give people the option to buy the on ice trim. So far you can only get it through an auction or by the team store's promotions/team equipment sales.
@@RUmlas Adidas wants to pinch every penny they can get by having their retail “authentics” made cheaply in Indonesia, this lets them charge premium prices for glorified replicas.
You should do a video on your non-NHL jerseys
TheSportsBoffin 89 I agree
Love that version of the jets emblem.
+adrian sims wish the would use it again
Thanks for doing a video on this! It was very informative and helpful. Keep up the amazing videos!
I love the mesh shoulders on the adidas jersey. It looks so nice
I encourage you to acquire a vintage game worn jersey for your collection. Price points range based on year, team, player, patches, and degree of wear. It would make for an excellent video which you could use to discuss and educate your followers on vintage provenance and how these rare items are a part of hockey history.
Watching in 2021 to make sense of some of your references in the jersey countdown
Started watching your videos when I wanted to buy my first hockey jersey; I’ve got to be sure of what I’m getting as they’re almost impossible to get in England so I have to order from NA. Purchased an adizero jersey from Canada and three Reebook’s off eBay. Dodged a bullet with Fanatics.
Same here. I took Shannon’s Cool Hockey recommendation and got me a custom Flyers in the Adidas. Thought about the Fanatics for about 0.68 seconds and dismissed it.
Love this channel.
Hey Hockey Guy, So I am also 5'4" tall and I'm about 225-230 lbs. I have always worn a size 52 sweater (which is an XL) and it fits me perfect in the body, mostly because I have a 19.5 inch neck with a 46+ inch chest and 52 inches around the shoulders, but yes the sleeves are super long until I wear it over my pads then the sleeves are fine. You are also correct that the Adidas sweaters are a size smaller than Reebok/CCM.
Waiting for the one ice team issued jerseys. Does anyone know when they will be available?
Crazy how I find so many great Team Issued Reebok jerseys for cheap price.
Also saw some team issued Adidas Jersey for like $200.
I love my pens road Adidas jersey. I'll spend the extra money for a jersey that is going to last a lot longer over time.
You should go into more detail about Reebok Premier vs Reebok Indo Edge vs Reebok Canadian Edge vs Adidas. The current Adidas jerseys seem more like the Reebok Indo Edge, having stitched crests and fight straps, but lacking the reinforced elbows. Do you know anything about the on ice Adidas? Are they more like the Canadian Edge jerseys?
besides fullmoonjerseys which I've heard you mention, where else could you suggest I look for affordably priced jerseys and apparel?
EDIT: and perhaps more importantly which sellers should be avoided?
Biggles Pancyclosis ice jerseys is solid
So if I wear a Reebok premier jersey(your Ducks home jersey), do I wear a 52L or 54XL IN adidas? I’m 5’10”
I purchased two size 60s i'm a big guy will a 60 be alright. Thanks
At our year end sale this weekend I picked up an away Canucks Adidas jersey for $50 to match my home :)
Those are 2 of my 29 Canucks jersey
On the adidas one, is the Crest lower than on the reebok jerseys?
Being in the Midwest unfortunately I am not in a hockey town so there are no stores close by that carry jersey’s.
It might be weird but I own a costume- replica jersey being that I bought the replica template and then paid extra to have the #'s put on the arms and name and # put on the back.
Is there any chance you could do a review of a Reebok replica vs the fanatics replica
fanatics are overpriced trash
What I like about the Reebok jersey is you had the option of a Canadian made ccm or the indo edge for half.
Exactly, I have 2 habs reebok 2.0 MIC and the Adidas one I have is a made in Indonesia.
That was the first video of yours I watched and subscribed because of.
Great vid! You going to buy any game worn adidas jerseys? Just got mine and the quality is amazing.
Nick Belfondo how much different is it from the adidas “authentics” that they sell us?
19bayarea91 an nhl team issued real deal jersey put the store bought ones to shame. I have two $300 team issued oilers jerseys. They are the best, nothing compares to real on ice nhl jersey. I’m a goalie and wear them on the ice. People shouldn’t call store bought “authentic “ unless it’s team issued. Jersey baron on eBay sells team issued.
Lol what do you mean by snagging? Love this video man really helpful!
5:08 Totally agree. I hope Fanatics stops doing crap.
What’s your favorite team you wear every teams jersey in the NHL
Shannon any word on alternate jerseys making a comeback for next season?
7:08 What jersey is it looking like a priest? I need to get such a jersey :) - I'm a lutheran priest and happy subscriber of the THG-channel. Regards from Norway.
Look at the original Adidas Blackhawks jersey or the Adidas Canadiens jersey. Both have white collars, almost priest like.
In my opinion, I think the fightstrap added to retail jerseys is another selling point for people who feel that they need it. I’ve been working in sports retail in the Chicago market for a long time, and so many people buy counterfeit jerseys and try telling me “it’s real because it has a fight strap” even though they will clearly be wearing a Chinese made knock off. The retro CCM jerseys are getting straps and will be sized in chest size also. They have 1958 Blackhawks Ccm jerseys like this as the United center store this year.
Shannon, can you discuss why some of the Edge jersey had the "lime" strip? I know some of those stadium series legit on ice jersey had those "lime" stripe sizing. Yet there were the Indo-Edge jersey's that had the "lime" stripe. PS I have two legit Edge 2.0 jerseys. In the summer it's okay. But I'd still wear a light shirt underneath. Otherwise, I wouldn't wear this past April/May.
Still love that video on CZcams of the lady who does the Blackhawks logo. Out in Montreal.
I'll admit that I am not 100% sure .... but I had thought that all with the LIME strip were made in Indonesia (indo edge) and the Edge 1.0 and 2.0 that don't have the lime strip are the made in Canada variety of Reebok Edge.
I previously owned a medium Reebok Edge and am now wondering what size of Adidas Authentic I should order? I'm 5'10" 155lbs. ***Also what size Adidas Authentic for 5'3" 120lbs?
A 50 should fit you fine.
I was in Whistler not to long ago, and I decided to check out source for sports. They had a fanatics Connor McDavid (Oilers) jersey and they were asking $190... And that was their sale price
Man for the size 60 from the nhl hockey jersey site I didn't expect it to fit as small as it did I thought it'd be huge and allow for pads to fit underneath
The goalie cut are bigger.
I just bought an authentic Adidas Habs jersey. Paid $225 CND for it and while I think it's beautiful I'm also surprised by the number of flaws. The blue stripes don't align from the front to back and I find the material very thin. I should of just paid $300 for the Canadian made Reebok edge.
Hi Dudes, I haven't bought an authentic Adidas as yet but I noticed an interesting thing a couple of weeks ago while I was watching a Flyers game feed on sportsnet. They showed Oskar Lindblom's locker stall with his jersey hanging and it was made in Canada! Unfortunately we can only purchase the made in Indonesia supply.
@@JohnMartin-yj3gv hey I appreciate the reply. Yeah, I guess we consumers have to live with the Indonesian made jerseys from now on. Ebay has some of the old Reebok Edge jerseys made in Canada but they are freaking expensive.
I probably won't be getting an Adidas jersey 'til the Sens change their design, but they look nice in person.
the sens changed their design, will you get one?
@@johngribbin6945 Yep, I got the black one
@@M_Hall34 Lived up to your word gotta love ir
@@irish_mma_twitch3992 Absolutely 😂
I don’t get it fanatics is the reseller of official nhl gear if I ever look at the official nhl shop page no matter what if I click on one authentic item it redirects me to fanatics
Not sure if someone has already said this, but I have three authentic jerseys (2 Reebok and 1 CCM), all size 58. They're much better stitched and much heavier and all around nicer than the replica. They all breathe really well but they don't do well in the Hot and Humid weather of the Southern US (North Carolina).
So given your jersey knowledge and getting them on sale etc. should i (as a ducks fan) wait for adidas to roll out their new third jerseys? Or gouge that summer sale on nhl shop despite being mostly powered by fanatics...i really love the orange 3rd jersey for the ducks and want it but waiting to see if it goes back on sale. PS im not looking for game worn fght strap authentic, just looking for a regular licenced jersey for wearing ( more tailored fit)
The orange Reebok Premier Ducks jersey is becoming somewhat hard to get. I still have inventory on Medium, Large, XL and XXL. benhsports on ebay.
Ben Hoogenband just wanted to ask are they 100% real and is there a reason why i cant view them, i had just checked your ebay store and couldnt find any of the ducks orange jerseys listed
Hi Anthony. If you have any trouble with anything, feel free to email me directly at ben.hoogenband@yahoo.ca . To answer your question ... if you did find my ebay store, then i the little search box at the top left type in the word ducks . Sometimes keeping the search super simple works better than putting in too many words. When you ask for ducks .. it will show you ALL that I have in Ducks and you will see 4 listings (M,L,XL and XXL) for the orange Reebok Ducks. Yes, all of my product is "legit" as they say as in, 100% fully licensed product. Shannon (the hockey guy) would NEVER endorse me as a seller if I sold knockoffs. I'll attach a link here. I don't know if you are USA or if you are Canada so .. one link is .ca and the other link is .com. I'll assume you are USA and I'll send the .com link. (hmm, I just tried to copy and paste but it didn't take.) I'll send this message and then try again with the link.
I don't use youtube a whole lot ... I can't seem to copy and paste the link .. it won't take the "paste". So, just email me at ben.hoogenband@yahoo.ca if you wish and I'll send the link that way.
It's fine to admit one's opinion about something like a jersey maker changes over time.
I want a Reebok edge 2.0
That’s your Picard maneuver to make your jersey behave.
The collar is what throws me off. I wanna get a home Rangers but the red pentagon on the collar sicks out like a sore thumb.
I can’t stand that as well. I hate the stupid looking flap with the NHL shield imbedded in the collar. On some jerseys, that flap is a different color. And makes the striping on the collar look terrible when the colors don’t match.
For me, the adidas are fine. But the fabric is too thin for an “authentic”. Sure the shoulder patches are better than the rbk replicas, but for 200 Canadian dollars it’s not worth the price. I think they should be about 160 Canadian.
That's what threw me off at first also. The weight of the fabric didn't seem right. I managed to track down an Adidas official however, and had an extensive conversation with her. The new fabric is indeed lighter and thinner. It contributes to the 40% weight reduction of the whole sweater. So believe it or not, it's the new normal.
Yeah I think they did that on purpose. Supposed to be lighter and “breathable”
Habu12 there all fake!! Has to be made in Canada and be heavy material even the stitching is waaay different. Any mall jersey is fake. I have two real deal team issued oilers jerseys. They put all these to shame
do you ever remove the jock tag from the reeboks its a cleaner look imo and you don't need to show your size to the world
One thing I have to say about the authentic Adidas jerseys the stitching on the logos tend to kind of come undone.i notice pieces of thread coming from the logos and numbers.my authentic whalers jerseys from the 90's took alot longer to unthread with numbers and the logos.
I want to buy a LA Kings Home Authentic Pro Jersey (genuine from Adidas). I wear XL in all of my T-shirts, Hoodies, Jackets, etc. I'm approximately 195cm (about 6'4) and 74Kg (about 163lbs). What size should I get for this one? I'm thinking of XL (on the official Adidas page it's XL (54). The jersey should be comfortable with enough room to properly move in it and have long enough sleeves, I don't like my clothes to fit tight or snug, but I obviously don't want the jersey to look like I bought it 2 sizes too big, either. Overall just comfy.
I'd really appreciate any help hence I'm from Germany and ordering from the US is super complicated and I don't want to have to send it back. Thank you!
Jonah I’d go bigger. The adidas ran really small when I tried one on
Did you end up buying a jersey? if so what size and how does it fit? Im about the same height and weight as you.
I recently got a size 50 adidas jersey and it fits great, other then the sleeve length being a little bit short for my liking but overall not to short that it awkward and uncomfortable to wear.
im thinking of getting the teams away colored jersey now and im undecided between picking up a 52 or 54.
@@TysonHook-22- hey man, I’ve not bought a jersey yet, but I guess I would just try XXL.
My clothes right now are all XXL, so I just guess that the jersey would fit in XXL as well 👍🏻
@@hanojekcim yeah, honestly with jerseys there generally gonna fir unless your going like 2 sizes down from your normal t-shirt size,
basically if you go true to size, up 1 size or down 1 size I think most people arent gonna have body fit issues the main differences will be how long of sleeves you need.
I'm 6'4" and 175ish lbs, I wear size L in everyday clothing, sometimes XL in jackets, sweaters... I brought a size 50 medium adi jersey and it fits me pretty great.
the sleeve length could be a bit longer for my height, but the body width/length is near perfect for casual wear over a tshirt, over a hoody it gets a little tight but still fully wearable.
I think the L, 52 is likely my proper size, but I just ordered a 54 that might be a bit big for casual wear but will make a great pond Jersey and at clearance prices was worth grabbing... at the end of the day if you go to a game wearing a jersey your gonna see ppl of all shapes and sizes in all sizes of jerseys, some too small, too big you'll see it all
I bought a Pens replica jersey in 2012 or 13 and I was appalled at the drop in quality from when I bought my first jersey in 2003.
The replica logos and numbers are like, press on iron logos, and it's just cheap looking. Will you be able to show an addidas replica?
Mario Avalle adidas doesn’t make the replicas. Fanatics makes the replicas while adidas makes the authentics. He has a video comparing the adidas authentics to the fanatics replicas if you want to check it out.
19bayarea91 adidas made replicas for the world cup, those ones are too bad
You think Adidas needs or should make a better replica of the replica to replace the fanatics ones? Maybe at $100-$120 price point?
No. Fanatics has the license to make replicas. And Adidas has the license to make authentics.
Sorry if it wasn't made clear, but you prefer Adidas over BOTH versions of Reebok (Replica and Authentic)?
I prefer Reebok Authentics above all, but Adidas are a close second.
I love my Adidas made Avs jerseys. I hate the Fanatics jerseys. They look so cheap and awful. Now when it comes to Adidas vs Reebok jerseys... on the Avs jerseys... the chest and shoulder logos is just heat pressed on and just flat looking. On the Adidas jerseys they're fully stitched and move better with your body, especially when you're sitting. Yeah, I don't get the point of the top pressed in circles other than maybe adding textured look to it. Draw back, they're thinner, they have more mesh panels... so when I leave the Pepsi Center at night during winter in Colorado don't expect them to keep you warm. Which is also why I call them a jersey, not a sweater... which is why I refuse to call these "sweaters", because sweaters keep you warm and these are not designed to do that.
To anyone living in the Chicago area who wants to get a Blackhawks jersey for cheap go to the Blackhawks store on Michigan Ave. this week. They have 70% off jerseys and you can pick up a replica for like $45 or a authentic for like $70. I just picked up a couple.
really want a caps Stanley cup final adidas but they are just too expensive!!
I bought a authentic jersey from full moon a jets one and I love it
I always see Reeboks described as "Premier Jerseys". I don't see any descriptions using the term authentic or replica. What am I missing?
Premier means it's a replica.
As Shannon said, it's a replica. Another name for it is the Series 550. When Reebok took over CCM, they changed it from series numbers to trade names. Series 550 replicas became "Premiere" and Series 6100 authentics became "Edge". Why? Marketing, branding...because they could.
personally, I call them PRO and Semi-Pro. As in, Reebok EDGE is a "pro". Reebok Premier is a "semi-pro". I find that terminology helps it make sense. (the word replica ... to me seems to suggest it's a fake .. it's not a fake , but it's a poor word choice.)
Ben Hoogenband it’s gotten a little muddy now, to be sure. And with the new adidas sweaters, I don’t know yet if they’ve carried over the series numbers from the Reeboks.
Adidas in US are $180($179.99)Fanatics are $130($129.99). At your arenas they $10-$30 more for a blank.
That's why I try to avoid buying at the arena. Though on rare occasion, they will have a sale.
As I know you produce content for sports and entertainment. Are you aware of the site "geeky Jerseys"? What are your thoughts on their jerseys?
I have two ordered from them, will discuss their jerseys when they arrive.
I can’t find benh sports on eBay. Am i spelling it wrong or am I just being really dumb?
stores.ebay.ca/Hockey-Jerseys-For-You?_rdc=1
The Hockey Guy thanks Shannon!
Hello ... benh sports ... no space in between ... all one work. Ebay seller: benhsports.
Also .. I am happy for anyone to just email me directly .... ben.hoogenband@yahoo.ca .
I think fanatics branded clothing is made by majestic the current outfitter of MLB but I am not sure if the replica jerseys are
I prefer the xxL of all my jerseys because it's cozy but my brother is a xL because it fits him
Also just a heads up if any girls are watching this. Don't wear make-up if you're going to drag an adidas jersey over your head. With those neck lines you are absolutely going to end up with it on your jersey.
My head is gargantuan and the Adidas jersey are a pain to fit on. I hope they made the head hole bigger for next year.
Fanatics jersey crest is super flimsy but stitched. The Adidas crest is bit less flimsy but stiched. The Reebok premier one is heat pressed but feels alot tougher than both fanatics and Adidas
Can u buy jerseys from a Canada website with usa money?
Depends. As in , on ebay you can buy from a Canadian ebay seller (like me, benhsports) and ebay/paypal will automatically convert things over to your US dollars. Super easy. If however you are buying from a normal store that happens to be in Canada, then (if they ship to the USA) you typically will pay by credit card. You will pay in Canadian dollars, but your credit card company will convert (and add their fee of course) and your charge on your credit card bill will end up in US dollars ... simply because your credit card is a US dollars credit card account.
@@benhoogenband8729 hey ben I've bought from you before! Good legit stuff!
Also jerseybaron_com is a great legit jersey seller
Yes ... I sell a every day to USA buyers and they pay in US funds. Even if it's not MY website ... if you buy from a Canadian web site , as long as they ship to the USA as not all of them do, your credit card company will handle any currency conversions. If you are dealing with ME . .I send you an invoice via paypal in US funds so all you ever deal in with me is US funds if you are in the USA and buying from me directly.
@@LM-ht7ez Thanks .. nice to see you hear in Hockey Guy land. Ben
Fanatics is a brand? I thought it was a retailer. Are the fanatics a replica and Adidas authentic?
Fanatics replaced replicas, but the quality isn't there in the logos. The fabric is nice. The logos are just terrible.
I’m disappointed with how bad the stitching is on the leafs adidas logos. Worn mine only a few times and the stitching on the writing is already coming out. This is after I already returned one for the same problem. Seems to be a problem.
Unless their made in Canada made of high heavy materials and have the heavy stitching their fake/replicas. Just saying I have two oilers team issued ones. Major differences between store bought made in Indonesia or China. Again if it’s not made in Canada it’s fake/replica not pro nhl use. My goalie cut team issued ones cost $300 plus cnd.
I prefer jerseys that have the lace-up neck line. I'm not crazy about the NHL badge on the neck line...it's too conspicuous. Love the Blackhawks jersey...always thought the red ones looked intimidating when the players are skating around before the opening faceoff. Maybe one of these days, I'll grab an Adidas authentic...probably personalized with my own number and name rather than with an established player's number/name.
Pre 2007 CCM Jeresys rule! Aurhentic as well as the Replicas were very well made and look great. The Reebok edge stuff is awful. The newer Adidas are much better..but both have horrible collar designs. though.
I really dislike Reebok collars.
I have purchased numerous jerseys from different obvious manufacturers but have an issue of sizing myself correctly. I like a loose fitting jersey but when I order one it's either too small or too large. Different companies size their jerseys differently from its competitors; authentics and replicas are also sized accordingly to the manufacturers' fitting protocols. I find replicas running smaller than the authentics; I don't know if it's the materials or the stretchiness. Any advice would be appreciated.
It be dope if you can get your hands on a CCM authentic jersey.
I only have two: Paul Kariya MIghty Duck white CCM Jersey looks so beautiful btw
and getting White Montreal Canadiens CCM Jersey (I think it's game worn because it shows the black grey nhl tag on the lower right of the back. They're both so nice and heavy with that ultrafil material.
You're catching on... So if it's a Series 6100 authentic, it'll have the CCM and NHL logos embroidered ALL THE WAY through the hem. This is key. Speaking of the hem, it should be about 2". The fight strap should have a twill rectangle as an anchor, and the stitching should trace the perimeter, and cross in an X pattern. The shoulders should be doubled, and the elbows should have a scuff pad sewn in. You're quite correct that the fabric is the dense Ultrafil type. But both 550s and 6100s can both use Ultrafil. The 6100s will have a heavier weight, however. Each team specified whther they wanted Ultrafil, Air-Knit, or Air-Mesh (only NYR used Air-Mesh). The Ducks used Ultrafil. Lastly, neck tags. ALL authentics are sized by number. There should be a tiny, square tag that says the size number (44,48,52,54,etc..). The manufacturer tag should not show a size at all. If anything it'll say "MAN" or "HOMME". There should also be wide rectangular tag that says "CENTER ICE/MISE AUJEAU" with a blue and salmon colored stripe. Some or all of these tags may be missing, of course. Hope all that helps!
6100
I bought a Fanatics jersey earlier in the season, big mistake. It pretty much fell apart after the first wash. Never again! I'd rather spend the extra money for the real deal.
whenever i get an adidas jersey, if it doesnt have a number kit on it, ill just take a seam ripper and take the fight strap off
How long does it take to remove it?
Personally, I like the Reebok Indo-Edge (green neckline tag) more than the adidas. I like the premier reebok but i hate how much differences it is to the edge.
Steve-o Moreno the replica sweaters are the Series 550. Authentics are Series 6100. Those numbers correspond to the weight and grain of the fabric used. The higher number means they have more thread count, are more resistant to shear and are heavier. Thus more suited to actually wear on the ice in a game. Those series numbers came from the original CCM sweaters of the 90s, and Reebok adopted them when they acquired CCM. But rather than using the old series numbers, they named it Premiere and Edge respectively.
How do you wash them? Any tips?
Return TooA I was wondering the same thing. I don't want to wreck my jerseys
Waders27 seems silly but for $200+ you want to make sure it's treated with care.
Return TooA I hope Shannon does a video on how to wash jerseys properly
Waders27 yes! Great idea! Probably would get 500k views in no time!
Turn them inside out, wash on tap cold, do not use the dryer.
K. So I am currently collecting jerseys and are more into collecting special outdoor jerseys or 3rd jerseys. Kind of sick of paying 200$ for them so I went on eBay for the first time to see. It's a gold mine... That's if they're real. Shannon you said you've boughten off eBay before. I'd like to know how reliable it is (have you ever been scammed of money or fake jerseys etc.) Cuz 65$ for a Philly outdoor with Giroux on it seems a little too good to be true.
Eric Tofflemire He has a video where he discusses legit eBay sellers. He
Caveat emptor on the eBay sales. You gotta do your own investigating before you buy. My best practice is to ask pointed, specific questions of the sweater you’re looking at, unless what you see is a slam dunk. For example, I just got a Bruins authentic Starter sweater for $45. It had all the marks of an authentic, and it was unequivocal. Now I won’t know until I actually have it in my hands if I was right, but if there’s any doubt, ask the seller. Ask for pics. If they’re iffy about any of it, thank the seller and walk away.
More jersey videos the better
They’ve grown on me a bit over time
Fanatics were so bad. I ended up getting a free Nugent Hopkins one from my bank. So that was cool
Even the "authentic" aren't the ones worn on the ice by players. The player authentics are all made in Canada.
Justin DeMatteo agreed!!! Bugs me so much when people call there mall jerseys authentic!!! I have two team issued oilers goalie jerseys as I’m a goalie. $300 plus cnd...
GoPro Goalie Uzi Where did you purchase those?
Justin DeMatteo from jersey baron. They sell left over team stock. I actually got a black oilers goalie practice jersey as well. All Reebok. Maybe I should do a review of them!! You can see the jerseys in action on my channel. I recently had Fuhr sign one. They thought it actually belonged to grant..
the Canucks neckline is horrible, add some green
200plus tax shipping cost if buy online
i so hate sizing i am 6'5" and 195 lbs its so stupid hard to find something that fits right......
I really like my Crosby Adidas jersey.
I kinda like that NSH away jersey... Idk why
The other thing I wish Adidas would do is being I'm a bigger guy and they do run smaller is go up to a 62 or a 64 for us fluffier people that's why I loved the Reebok even though they sang like crazy I have a lot of 4xl in Reebok because they are big and comfortable to wear so that's the only other thing I wouldn't mind Adidas doing is going up a couple more sizes for us big and tall wearers
Lawrence LaBrasca yeah I learned that trying an adidas on. I really want it over fanatics but the fit just was so weird on me as I’m a bigger in the belly guy. The fanatics actually felt more comfortable/looser
@@BryanVGK23 I would get the fanatics if the logos were actually embroidered like the Reebok premier ones were or even like the Adidas logos
Does adidas have replicas? Or is it only a on ice jersey with adidas.
Rick Gonzalez Adidas has “authentics” but they’re not the actual on ice jersey unfortunately. Adidas does not have an actual replica jersey. Fanatics is making the replicas right now.
19bayarea91 thank for the clarification. If sucks that they don’t have on ice, but it’ll do I for now I guess.
Rick Gonzalez ya it sucks because when I buy an authentic I expect it to be what the players wear on the ice,court or field. For the price difference you’re better off just getting the “authentic” because they don’t cost that much more then the fanatics replicas. Also if you want a player on your jersey and not a blank jersey, buy the blank one then get it sent in to get stitched separately because for some reason when you buy the authentics from Adidas with the name and numbers on it already it comes as that single layer crap instead of double stitched. Another reason why adidas is screwing its customers.
You’re 5’4? Goddamn.
Reallly helpful, and clarifying.
Jersey prices are just too much
Why do some adidas authentics have single layer twill and some have multi layer twill
For jersey numbers and lettering? It all depends on the seller and customizer. You will typically pay more money for multi layer stitching, and less money for heat press or partially heat pressed
I think everybody can agree the worst thing was fanatics taking over the replicas..
CCM and koho is the best.
Adidas no doubt about it
