LuvTheNats Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I have always been fascinated with those things...I speculate that they maybe a team alteration type thing. Although, I have no basis on that theory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Some players will have them sewn in by the teams' seamstresses. I think they're lined with fleece.Uni Watch had an interview last week with the Packers' seamstress, and the pockets were mentioned.

oddball Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 It's amazing that someone from Wisconsin is somehow shocked or surprised that the Packers do this. I know they've been doing it for years and I've seen other teams in the Northeast do it also. My question though, is what happens to these pockets after the game especially if the Packers win and their next game would be in Arizona where I doubt they'd need them. Do they take them off or just use new jerseys? Do the pockets go into a box for next year or what? Just odd questions that crossed my mind.

iowahoo Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Bernie Kosar used to have them in Cleveland. ^example of one hand over the other- right side is high while left side pocket is separate and lowerI have seen them where one hand goes over the other as well as an open pouch where both hands go in so the fingers would actually be touching each other as opposed to the separate pockets/chambers in the on top design.

chuckymack Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 If memory serves me correctly, the Packers' entire jersey is lined with fleece when they have the pouches on them. Sigs are for sissies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
