It's bait and switch as well, all the ads show the nice customization but when they send out the jerseys It's the **** vinyl ones.

Apparently someone contacted AA and they said they got the jerseys directly from Adidas and not how they normally would customize them.

I preordered one from hockeyauthentic that won't be shipping until January, but I rather wait for one done properly.
Hm, I ordered a custom Girard so perhaps they’ll be doing the numbering correct.

AFAIK there’s no other sites that have it in stock however

It was Exclusive Pro out in Illinois but did the Avs switch it to these guys now?

Weighing my options between sending it back when it arrives and just keeping it. I think I could lose shipping costs and it's really god damn annoying to send it back through customs (although customs would return their charge with product returns). Getting one from cool hockey by the way would be around 450 USD with customs.

Man, at that price point it should be exactly what you want, you shouldn’t have to try and convince yourself to be happy with it if you’re not. I’d even try and get the shipping cost back from AA if it was indeed advertised as layered stitching vs. Vinyl press. That’s not right.

Yeah, I think I've settled on exchanging it. Perhaps I could offer to take store credit and pay extra for the signed one.

Just emailed AA to cancel my order. I appreciate your honesty risto! That is so unfair of AA to be advertising authentic jerseys and yet supply vinyl bullshit. I made another ordered through cool hockey, their quality is legit. Total came to $277 CAD. Which was about $33 cheaper than AA. And they ship free to Canada. I’ll probably be waiting for it but I would have been rattled had I got a vinyl plated jerseys.

You probably would've been hut by customs if you ordered from AA as well, guessing it would've been 100 more from AA.

That’s too bad about AA when I ordered my MacKinnon home it too awhile because it was being customized and it was authentic but they also waived the shipping costs for me because it took so long I ended up getting next day air for free because I ordered it and it took almost a month before they got it back from the company that stitches them. Sounds like the RR they just got from Adidas instead of getting them blank and having them done.

Jersey's here. Numbering is cheap horse shit. I specifically only wanted to buy a legit jersey for whatever money, and when I finally get one I still don't get one. Gonna look into sending it back.

It won't matter though if you wear yours, or if you know to expect it.

Wasn't the Avs with Exclusive Pro? Did they switch it to these guys now?

They were with Denver Athletics from the beginning, then switched to Cutting edge a couple years ago.

Here is a link to my site with a picture of their tag from a gamer in 2019.

Does anyone have any picture of Cool Hockey's work from the past? Or even Cutting Edge?

I have a Landeskog stadium series from Cool hockey, they are legit. I’d add a picture but I’m not sure how.

Do you notice any difference between the two?

Ok.....I had to go the to the man to verify things (Vean). He believes that EPS did take over from DA for a year or two before cutting edge took over. There might be some minor minor differences between the the two. I want to say the nameplate were slight different one season.

Overall its extremely difficult to distinguish the changes. Looking at the couple of Adidas games i have in my collections, nothing noticeable that would make me lean towards one customizer over the other

Hope that helps.
