benpc21 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 With the NLL season kicking off in a few days, I'm getting really excited to see my home team Portland Lumberjax kick off their 3rd season. Ever since the name was announced the idea of a plaid jersey has been thrown around, and this season they have finally released one (and a plaid trucker hat, the whole marketing campaign is based around plaid this year.) They have finally released photos of the jersey from the recent season ticket holder party and I had a hard time not going to buy one today when I saw them.Now I have a question I hope someone can help me with. I've yet to buy a Jax jersey, mainly because of how the replicas come numbered. Instead of using 3 color tackle twill, you only get one color, which doesn't cut it for me. The only way to get 3 color name and number is to buy an authentic which runs for $250 when a replica is $150 (customized). I was wondering if anyone knew what the font they used for their numbers, as my plan is to pick up a jersey and get the lettering done when I send in some hockey jerseys. I have a few examples of the font here. Any help would be appreciated.Replica Jersey: Authentic 3 layer font: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmorss9 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 The name looks to be the standard pro block that quite a few NHL teams use. I'll look to see if the numbers are custom or not. "Hats for bats. Keep bats warm. Gracias" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I think those plaid jerseys are awesome. Now if they can find a way to use an axe as a REAL lacrosse stick... I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benpc21 Posted December 29, 2007 Author Share Posted December 29, 2007 Flynn, I knew you had done the original logo but not the jerseys as well, very well done sir. I'm leaning towards Ryan Powell's #22 but Brodie Merrill is tempting too. Eventually I'd like get one of each customized, but I only make a game or two a year since in school in Seattle. Next year I can finally get my season tickets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now lets hope they have a sense of humor and use the Monty Python song at the game. Well maybe not the whole song.

benpc21 Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 Right now they are only available in person. Once the season gets underway I'm sure they will get them online, as they tend to take a little while to update all the swag they get each season. If you want one, I'm sure you can phone it in, the link for their contact info can be found at the top of the main page. The main office is where all the merchandise is and I'm sure they would be willing to complete an order via phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
