Chazberg Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 So I just received my gorgeous new Hawks Edge jersey from Santa, it's a size 50. I'd tried one on before but this one seems bigger, and while I like the slimmer fit, the sleeves are super long and almost cover my whole hand. I'm wondering if anyone else noticed this, and how you feel about it. There aren't any 48's at my disposal right now, so I'm tryin to decide whether to wait it out til more come in or just stick with the 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason there is no size 48 is because there is not much difference in size between the 50 and 46 apart from a slightly wider torso. I know this because;a ) when I went 3 days after they came out, they told me at Centre Sports at the ACC that the jerseys don't come in size 48 for that reason as listed on their sizing card list thingy and,b ) look at the sizing chart on nhl.com - no size 48 listed.

Chazberg Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 OK my mistake, then it was a 46 I had also tried on before/that I would switch to. I'm just surprised at 6'2'' that the sleeves on both seem to come down to my knuckles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I've fitted many people in the new authentics working at the CBJ team store and almost everyone says something about the length of the sleeves. Yes, they are very long. I'd prefer the premier if it weren't for the football jersey like slit on each side and the cheesy-cheap looking shoulder patches. If I was a fan of a team without shoulder logos such as Detroit, I would consider buying the premier, but right now it's what has stopped me from buying one. And the price has stopped me from buying an authentic edge, so I've held off on buying a new jersey. Plus I have a feeling that new jerseys will be on the way next season, so I'll wait.

Chazberg Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 I'm not planning to play in the thing, so there's really no point in trying it on in pads. And yeah I'm pretty wiry/don't like my jerseys huge. I picked up a 46 at the UC tonight....what a helluva game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
