ALL BLOUSE TALK HERE - All The Cool Kids Call Jerseys Blouses - Part Nine

MacEwen is currently the most expensive one at $540. Hope it’s you.

I got outbid st the last minute on Sanheim. I wasn't able to hawk the auction like I'd have wanted to because work is a pain in the ass.

Ah well.

Dang, theres a Carter Hart jersey listed on Meigray at $5000, holy. That's a lot of cheese.

And then I got to the Nolan Patrick jerseys and he has not 1, but 4 listed at 5000 and 1 at 7500. WOW.

Yeah... those prices were based off of the hype of when he was drafted. During the Summer and Winter Sales they’re 50% off at this point (which is still a ton).

They’d probably take a fraction of that if offered now or they’re also perfectly fine keeping them around and including them in grab bags that go for $500 a pop with some high end jerseys to draw people in an a bunch of slop to go along with it.

The most expensive one makes sense, in that it's Pronger from the SCF in 2010, but that was just kind of shocking to see. There's a Chris Therien jersey on there that actually looks like it would be a sweet pickup. It's on consignment listed at 395 I think worn in the 01-02 season.

I'm happy when I picked up my Jake Voracek from them that it was in the 700 range instead of the cost his are all at now.

Bumping this one up, I just picked up this blouse from the Sens auction. Giroux name bar incoming!

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Love me a blouse thread bump. It warms my heart.

Is the mlb shop the only place to buy jerseys? I’m looking for a powder blue Phillies, but don’t know where to look without getting ripped off.

Pretty much, yes.

Dicks Sporting Goods or Rally House are pretty much the only two that don’t fall under the Fanatics umbrella.

The teamstore at the stadium may have them also.

Is there a huge quality in difference between then $300+ and the $150ish jerseys to justify the difference?

You’re asking a complete jersey snob this question.

Yes, there’s a pretty big difference but I don’t believe they sell the powder blue in the authentic.

Who better to ask than someone that hordes them?

I'm very rarely a Bootleg blouse guy... especially with hockey ones... but in today's recessionary period, and time of shameless pricing of on the ice/field products I at time make exceptions... and more easily with non-Flyers ones that are worn to games. The above Phillies knockoff was last one available at a street fair table and was only $24.95... it is really excellent, albeit far from authentic; it is perfect for casual wear. It has the patch like the real ones, and the Nike swoosh, which most Knockoffs don't... the main telltale sign that I can detect is, as usual, the numbering border that is basically edging stich, which is thinner. I honestly couldn't pass it up for that price... especially with the Phillies then in the World Series... and it fit perfectly to boot. Please forgive the sloppily taken photos, while not licensed, it really is a nice addition to my non-Flyers collection. That said, please be aware of the awful powder blue bootlegs I've seen worn around the area. This is most likely not what you had in mind, but I hope it helps you anyway.

No pictures or anything yet, just want to contribute that I ordered my first gamer yesterday, been wanting to just buy even one for years and I'm very excited for it to arrive.

My first game worn jersey!

Former Hershey Bear Colby Williams wore this jersey with the Belleville Senators, Ottawa's AHL affiliate, last season. Colby was a Bears fan favorite and draft pick of the Capitals in 2015. He played for Hershey from 2016-2020, then played two seasons for Belleville from 2020-2022. He currently plays for Admiral Vladivostok in the KHL.

This jersey has some nice wear on it and comes with a team COA. I've been wanting to add a gamer for years and got this one for a good deal. This is my first but hopefully not last gamer. As I start to really limit my card purchasing, I'm hoping to be able to add more and start a collection (hoping to focus on current and former Bears players).

This slippery slope is not a kind one, be careful.

With so Flyers Players either being moved out, or on the LTIR shelf, game wear blouses of available roster players are becoming hard keep in our personal stock... Prices of authentics keep rising, making purchases harder to rationalize. The Gritty, Mr. Snider, Personal Name and Bootleg options have looked more and more viable (IF Bootlegs are not embarrassments to wear.)

I have found the main telltale standout feature of Knockoffs are the numbers personalization... the Chinese children just can't seem to get them right when making the Bootlegs; the main problem is the multilayer customization matching the on-ice product the team wears... This leads me to a personal observation and my question; the 2022-23 Flyers Reverse-Retro Alternates have the simplest numbering, containing a single ply, that should be right up the Bootleggers ally... has anyone been able to see a 2022-23 RR Knockoff... if so, how good have they been able to do with them.

I do realize that there are other telltale signs... but none as easy to spot from a distance as easily as the customization.

TIA

Just an FYI, the numbers on the arms aren’t single ply.

 

[Sawdalite]

Just an FYI, the numbers on the arms aren’t single ply.

True, but they are thinner, and not as obvious... especially at a distance... with the previous RR ones, the back numbers were real giveaways.

Thanks, that will certainly be spot to concentrate on if/when I inspect one First hand. TBH when I saw the last RR Alternates away from a real one, I didn't pick up on the numbers being so off--shame on me, I understand--but I think the sleeves numbers should be easier to live with when the back ones are so simplistic... relatively speaking, that is.

Thanks again.

A friend said he heard that the Flyers were changing their jerseys next year. Has anyone heard the same? I small changes happen every few years, so it wouldn't surprise me.

It has been reported by some people on Twitter...no formal announcement

Rumors I've seen say minor changes... Not touching the Logo. Mainly shade of orange and maybe back to creme and the layout of said colors.

 

[swami24]

They learned not to mess with the logo.

 

[dragonoffrost]

So not really a Blouse more a Hoodie. but this was a Present from my lady.

Removed the identifying info as it's the first item I've ever owned with my name on it.

We both have Irish heritage and were born on the 26th of a month so it was so fitting coming from her.

Picked up my second game used jersey for cheap in an Ebay auction

Greg Amadio
Portland Pirates
2006-07

"Ammo" was a member of the Hershey Bears teams that won back to back Calder Cups in 2009 and 2010. This jersey has some nice wear and tear and is signed by the player.

The Pirates went defunct in 2016. Always fun to pick up a jersey of a team that no longer exists.
