oddball Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 I don't care about the colors, because color depends on lighting, and other factors; but if I looked at it and said, "Fake", it's got to be fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsM29 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 The number and nameplate fonts are definitely incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 The teal looks way too much like Carolina Panther blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyboy1 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 The name font is the Font of Fakers. The 1's don't match either. I call fake.

oakland ehs Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I would say there are different levels of fake... Like comparing this monstrosity:- Absolutely everything is wrong with the jersey itself. Shoulders, striping, the NHL logo, and likely the material too.- The font - just disgusting....to the one you posted.The one I just compared, I would not hesitate to say FAKE in bright colors with a font the size of a billboard.That Sharks jersey - it's obviously a premier jersey, so I hope they're not trying to pass it off as authentic. And in photo comparisons, the only thing that's really off is the thickness of the numbers, and a wrong font on the name.Knowing ebay, this could be a guy just trying to make a cheap buck of his own crappy customization job. Or, this could be the product of a poor quality job by a store and the seller isn't really to blame at all.Either way, yeah, it doesn't look right, but I hope we're not all jumping on the seller the same way as if he was making weird looking jerseys in some basement in Korea.

Blitz Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Correct me if I'm wrong... but any licensed authentic or replica should have the new NHL shield logo on the tags somewhere, I only see the NHLPA logo which only allows the use of the name & number. Also, is the ugly RBK mfg. tag on the front of the jersey? I mean, It's a good looking shirt... who really cares whether it's authentic or not.... but I certainly wouldn't pay that kind of money for a basement replica.

wildwing64 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Hard to tell whether or not it's a fake. It could just as easily be a replica/premier jersey with slightly inaccurate fonts used.My guess is that it's to do with the retailer: I once ordered a personalised Ducks replica jersey from Triple Threat Sports. The jersey itself was authentic, but the numbering and letters were ever so slightly off.And did I ever mention the horribly inaccurate Captain's C?

BamaHater Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 This jersey is being sold by Jadgang, a legit seller on Ebay. It is probably a replica that like most replicas use wrong fonts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is probably a replica that like most replicas use wrong fonts.come to think about it, this jadgang auction has always been odd to me.the "LUONGO" looks a tiny bit too jumbled.i wouldnt mind owning the jersey one bit, except i dont think its 100% straight from Rbk real.
