mr_xmt Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 OK, technically this is a sports jersey, but it IS a hockey jersey and it DOES have a logo, so I figure THAT has to count for something. Besides, there was a thread a while back that talked about the limited use of pink...Anyway, a friend and I own a website (http://www.foamcowadventures.com) and wanted to do something different to promote it. Since he is a big hockey fan, we decided to go with a hockey jersey.FRONT(larger image: http://mrxmt.members.winisp.net/fca/jersey_front.jpg)BACK(larger image: http://mrxmt.members.winisp.net/fca/jersey_back.jpg)CREST DETAIL(larger image: http://mrxmt.members.winisp.net/fca/jersey_face_detail.jpg)SHOULDER PATCH DETAIL(larger image: http://mrxmt.members.winisp.net/fca/jersey...der_detail.jpg)We ordered them from FSGear (www.fsgear.com) right after NewYawkSeahawk posted photos of his (which is what inspired me to get moving on these). They arrive today, so it was just over 2 weeks, once all the details were worked out.All-in-all I am very please with the jerseys. The quality is good and the details are almost exactly what I was looking for. The only problem that I've seen was on the second jersey. The name on the back was not capitalized as I would have expected. Only the first letter was done. I've email them to find out why, but it's possible it was a space issue (though it's only 8 letters).Anyway, I wanted to share this with everyone.

officeglenn Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 That's pretty sweet looking. Best use of pink and black since the 1998 Calgary Hitmen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cashcleaner Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 The shoulder patch is especially good work, I would say, though I'm not a huge fan of the entire concept. That siad, it's always cool to see someone's ideas on a jersey.Where did it get printed/embroidered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, most companies that do the jersey don't offer pink as an option. I only found 2 companies that would do the color (one in New Jersey that I can't remember) and the FSGear folks (technically it's HOPCO Sports that made the actual jersey).
