Frenchie Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Bottom line - You can't judge a jersey by a photo. You must see it in action on the ice to truly know how it is going to look.That is a good point, ands based on watching the Leafs-Bruins game this weekend I have to say that the Bruins Jersey has been downgrading in my (unpublished) rating.Those shoulders come way too low. both in front and back...I like yellow, but this is just a little too different to the Vintage it mimmicks.Sorry! @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchie Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Penguins training Camp: Players say uniform changes all wetI know it's easy for me to say NOW, but as someone who sweats buckets through a game (mainly because I'm grossly out of shape...) I saw that one coming.Repelling is not that great a feature, I prefer soaking, and just switch jerseys after each period... Fabric dries much faster than leather and/or foam, and does not produce the trademark: Hockey Bag Smell... @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't they just put moisture replant on the front and and back of the jerseys, and take it off the arms. Wouldn't that help from all the moisture going in the gloves ?Unless its already been done, then I'm lost for words lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wman Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Can someone identify the creative crew at Reebok who came up with these? Seriously, I'd like to hear the thought process behind all of the piping and stripes. I hate that they hide behind their brand and don't address any of what they've created. Bring back the Whale!

habsfan1 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 What's up with the Sabres' Road logos this year? On the replica, the logo (slug) is outlined in silver and the "B" logo is blue, but on the authentic, the slug has a very thick blue outline without any silver while the "B" logo is gold. Anyone else notice this? Pics from NHL.com Shop. vs Then during the game, the logo does not have the silver border, but the "B" logo is blue.You have a real good eye. I don't think I would of ever noticed that. I don't know why they removed the silver, it's in the official primary logo. I do prefer the yellow B though.

Jarred Revolver Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Just saw the highlights on NYI vs. NYR and to me it looked like they fixed the off centred RANGERS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youcan'tseeme Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Just saw the highlights on NYI vs. NYR and to me it looked like they fixed the off centred RANGERS.Not really. We were already informed that when put on the jersey would stretch. The way it was sewn on it would appear centred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VC// Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 I remember when i played minor hockey way back when and we had 3 tournaments in 1 freakin day, we couldn't wash our jerseys and we'd have to let it air dry but by the 3rd game we were sweating like a fat guy in the middle of summer. The thing that RBK forgot is that when you are skating around and your jersey gets wet, the water just drains out and starts to dry the fabric out. Rbk needs to make some parts of the jersey absorbent, like under the arm, from the bottom of the jersey all the way up under the arm to the wrist and then make the sides absorbent as well, so the only parts that stay dry are the crest part and the numbers on the back which is what you would want dry if you were to make a huge diff on the jerseys.I hope rbk fixes it, as for the material being lighter and stretchy and fitting proper for fans, i love it. I just wish they didn't make the designs a little weirder. LETS GO PENGUINS! 5x Stanley Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayne Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 1 month on (or whatever it is) and I still dont like the Nucks jersey. It looks too cartoony and unbalanced. The wordmark makes the whole jersey look top-heavy and add that to the shoulder patches (which look like they are a drawn by a primary school kid) the jersey is way too cluttered. Take away the shoulder patches alltogether and it might work better, but I would still prefer it if the wordmark was not there at all. And also, I would have liked the shoulder patches to have black centres so as to match up with the colour of the Orca on the front. At least that would make the orca look less out of place and give it something to tie in with. If you're going to have black in your logo as a main colour, you need to have it somewhere else on the jersey, and I think having it in the shoulder patches could have worked quite well. I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 The Canucks don't have any black in the new uniforms - only dark blue.The only problem I have with the new design is the wordmark. Other than that, I think they're beautiful. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrivnak Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 So, at last Saturday's Thrashers preseason game, I noticed that the replica jerseys are actually designed differently from the authentics (they had both on sale at the team store). The authentic home jersey's arm design tapers toward the bottom of the sleeve, and the ATLANTA is bunched up towards the shoulder. On the replicas, the arm doesn't taper and the ATLANTA runs all the way down the sleeve. The replicas actually looked MUCH nicer than the authentics. Very weird.
