dolphins91 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 So i was on instagram and found a photo of a Preds fan showing off his new Rinne jersey. At first glance it looks legit. It has the same basic design and fonts that they use, but after looking at it for a few more seconds I noticed that something wasn't right. The numbers are way off centered, the stitching is terrible, it looks as if in some parts where it should be rounded off, it's squared off, the Reebok logo is a complete mess, and if I had to guess the front is probably just as bad. It is terrible that people get scammed into getting illegally made counterfeit jerseys and brag about how good they are, when they are a pile of crap. If you want a jersey, just spend the extra money on one instead of buying these cheap $25 jerseys off of sketchy sites. I really hope this guy realizes what a bad deal he got.

Schwartz Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 My god, what a disaster of a stitching job. It's a shame, the Preds have some great uniforms. If they can't even get the numbers right, I wonder how the front turned out. I would guess they just used a pre-made patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I hate to say it, but many (maybe most) fans would rather pay $25 and wear something like that than pay the prices Reebok and the NHL are asking for. These counterfeits are only popular because of the colossal price gap in between the two items.I'm sure most of the people on this forum wouldn't be caught dead in a knockoff because they'd know it was a fake and that'd be enough. But I doubt the average schmuck wearing his jersey to the bar to watch the game is going to really care if they didn't get the font quite right on the numbers or if the stitching sucks. They'll probably notice it after a half dozen washes, but aesthetically it's irrelevant to them.

Chicageaux Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I've actually been looking to buy a new authentic Blackhawks jersey. I was going to make a new thread but I figured I'd ask in this one without hijacking it. I want the logos on the shoulders to be actually stitched and not heat pressed on like NHL Shop. Any sites that I can check out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any sites that I can check out?Go to EBay and look at JerseyBaron's stuff. He sells the Edge 2.0s, aka the made-in-Canada authentics. Those are the best you can get without buying a gameworn.

Sign up for their newsletters, and keep an eye out for weekend and flash sales. Don't pay the $350-$450 JerseyBaron charges on eBay.
