benpc21 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I gotta say like the font the women have. I'm not really a big fan of the font that the men have or had to begin with, I don't see what was wrong with the SJSharks numbers they had going. The only thing is in the pic with the black jersey, they need a red layer under the white, to give it an outline and pop it out a bit. The one color number doesnt do it for me. In my mind im debating getting a Rick Nash jersey in red or black, black was the favourite but the men have these new numbers and a black jersey without a red outline, it would make me go with the red one that much more. Just my two cents.Edit...I did find this online even later tonight, a bunch of team canada mens jerseys numbered in the same font as the women have been wearing. The come from CoolHockey on ebay, who is a partner of the NHL (yeah, I know the NHL isnt the IIHF, but I would assume one of thier right hand guys to have the new info). The big picture of the girls is a circle helped to compare numbers. Again, l like this new font, but upon looking at it some more, I wish the 1 had more of a traditional shape with the line at the top as compared to the l shape it has.SakicBrodeur BlackThornton Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReginaCanuck Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I never liked the Sharks numbers. I loved the font Canada wore for the Juniors this year. I hope the men's Olympic team keeps them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Your Sakic jersey is certainly correct then, because Jersey City is the official retailer of Team Canada, and has a license with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I was watching the game today vs italy, and yes the mens numbers are the same as the women they have changed again lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesharps Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 I know it's been said often, but I'll say it again - those socks are brutal. And so is the jersey template that every team has been using. I hate these uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBC31 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I was watching the game today vs italy, and yes the mens numbers are the same as the women they have changed again lol. And now my local Sports Experts has a bunch of pre-made Team Canada jerseys with the previous numbers... they should be discounted.Man the cookie cutter template for jerseys to be almost all the same is freakin' stupid.

oddball Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Not only are they cookie cutter template jerseys, but theyreally look like a 6th grade cut and paste uniform, numbers from here, a little scrap material from there, the occasional use of tin foil on the front of the neck hole. I swear they gave the idea for these uniforms to some 6 year old and brought them to the suits who thought they were "cute" and that they should go with them to encourage kids to follow their dreams. These uniforms belong on Super Models on a runway in Paris never to see the light of day for those of us normal people! Sorry needed to vent.

logodawg Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Maybe if only one team used the template used by ALL the counties I wouldn't mind it so much, but when you look on the ice and it all looks the same, I die alittle inside. I once had a car but I crashed it. I once had a guitar but I smashed it. I once, wait where am I going with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 these remind me of soccer jerseys. Sublimated stripes, stripes and piping that start and end in odd places, goofy collars. They all suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyboy1 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 While I was shopping last weekend, I got my first look at the Canada & USA jerseys in person. They both had the new font IIHF patches on them, which was notable for replica jerseys. Only authentics came with the IIHF patch for the previous styles.Then today I notice, they aren't wearing the IIHF patch on the ice during the Olympics! That was unexpected, and kinda odd and not very consistant either. I wonder what's up with that?Go Switzerland! Go Sweden! Go any other non-Swift wearing teams!While Sweden in wearing their same jerseys from the 2005 World Championships, I was surprised to see that Switzerland's jerseys have actually changed from then.Instead of a repeat of the main "Suisse" crest on the shoulders, they now have the large Swiss flag added to the shoulders, which look great, especially on the white ones where there some contrast when compared to the red on red of the dark jerseys. The men haven't worn the whites yet, but I did see the women wear them when they played the US earlier.I hope they stick with them for the World Championships so I have a chance to get one from their online store.JeffB Click here to read Third String Goalie - The Hockey Jersey of the Day Blog Click here to see my hockey and baseball jersey collection online ?You don?t like to see 20 kids punching 20 other kids.
