OT: All Jersey Talk (Game Worn, Replica, Authentic, etc.) Part VI

[ScottyK]

Three of my friends already put orders in, I won’t be doing that. But, the people who think this won’t sell are out to lunch. You’ll be seeing many of them.

I shouldn't of posted the pictures ( granted some did come from someone else the next day ) the full kit looks so much better than the stand alone

Its an Adidas requirement

There's no out clause if there is a terrible reaction? why would they put this out and lock themselves into the crap for 3 years?

or an opportunity for a redesign? Take another stab at a 3rd next year and maybe not listen to Brodeur this time.

 

[Tao Jersey Jones]

Maybe it's because my father worked for the SC of the State of New Jersey, that I never heard "Jersey" in my house.

"What Exit?" would have been better.

I always loved that the old arena was off 16W

I mean sure, if you are a bunch of kids running a lemonade stand….


Cmon, you can’t be that naive to the nature of corporate businesses and how much money Adidas is putting into this league to make these decisions and gets clauses like these in contracts. You make it sound so easy when in reality that’s a fools dream.

Nah f*** that. It's not your fault Adidas dropped the ball on that. These would have gotten shit on whether you posted or not.

Everyone just has to show up in the full kit at The Rock and it will look just ok

What exit?

From my 2012 STH jersey, where they let you “customize” it by putting cheap lettering over your ass.

(Just FYI, I haven’t been going to games since 1982. These are my Dad’s old two seats and I was a kid with an older brother when we got them so I didn’t go much at all back in the day.)

 

[DEVILS130]

Still don’t like them but I think they look ‘slightly’ better when you see the full uniform

 

[hacksaw7]

What is "kit". It's a uniform.

Have you or will you inherit your fathers jerseys?

So what's so far fetched about shitcanning a terrible idea, coming up with a better 3rd jersey in 2022-23 and just rolling with that. Still Adidas. Fans will like it more. They just want to be locked into crap? both adidas and the Devils?

 

[hacksaw7]

It's a hockey uniform. It's what it is. I have just never heard of a uniform or jersey in any sport referred to as that. Not baseball, football, basketball...

Because these things aren't thrown together in a couple weeks or months. Collaboration between the teams and ADIDAS can take years to design and bring a jersey to market. It's not as simple as you think it is. That's the reason a certain amount of years to wear it is required once the process is complete.
