My trip to Buffalo gave me two new additions to my jersey collection.

I got a white Colin Kaepernick jersey at a Nike outlet for $22. I've wanted to get a Kaepernick jersey for a while so I had to jump on that. They also had a white RGIII jersey for $18 and I kinda regret not getting that one as well. And then at the Sabres team store, they had the jerseys of the traded players on sale for $82 and all jerseys in the store were marked down an additional 15%. I ended up getting an Ott home jersey for $62. I almost got the mullet third, but common sense prevailed.

You might regret that some day! Think about how much people covet Burger King, Wild Wing, Mooterus, etc. today.

Edit: and by "people", I mean weirdos like us.

Those crappy sabres jerseys are going for $57 today only at NHL.COM

Is it extremely weird that I want one? XD

Hi guys,

I wanted to introduce myself on the boards and ask for a little help. This is my first post, but I've always admired the site and its content. Recently, I found what I presume to be some type of practice hockey jersey at my local thrift shop.Currently, I'm stumped as to what team it belongs to. I did a little digging and the closest might be the NJ/Williamsport Outlaws of the FHL. If anyone could help identify this, I'd really appreciate it. I picked it up in the western PA area if that helps. Thanks in advance.

Not exactly a thrift store pickup, but I was passing US Airways Arena on my way back from class and decided to stop in and see if they had any shirts on sale. I found this gem for about $7. Does anyone know if this logo was ever used? It reminds me of Towlie from South Park.

Coming back to show off something Im particularly proud of.

My goal at thrift shops is always to find stuff with with the Jags unused 1993 "lawsuit" logo, so I was especially stoked to come across this beauty at GW in Oakleaf.

1993 Starter hoodie. Couldn't say no at $15. Especially interested in the early 90s design aspects of the piece, like the strange hand pocket-placement on the hips and odd texture around the shoulders, which I later found out was an early attempt at ventilation technology (which i found out when i wore it on a cold day and found that my shoulders felt particularly chilly!).

The hat shown was icing on the cake, found at a garage sale just a day later and given for free withiut even asking. A very successful weekend, to say the least.

Dang, that's a nice find, especially at that price. The shoulder stuff looks a bit weird.
