Jersey's all change with time. I'm okay with them.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

The Reebok Edge jersey change was fine.

Changing the designs of good uniforms by adding piping down the middle on half of the teams was not okay.

 

[Rick Nash 61]

I honestly like them

I think teams like like Ottawa and Dallas got bent with the Reebok edge jersey's

 

[Claypool]

They're horrible. I still cringe when I look at the "diaper" effect on the bottom. I'm never buying a reebok jeresy. Hopefully they change them back once the contract runs out.

I thought the players like the new material that they're mad out of, not as heavy and liquid-absorbent as before.

 

[Snakepit]

Quality is good, most look piss poor. Just look what they did to my Flames with that piping

 

[FoppaForsberg*]

Bad.

Well my team is Montreal, so aesthetically there's no difference, but I prefer the fabric and somewhat tighter fit of the edge jerseys so I'll say they're better.

Way better than the koho's. Should just keep the designs from 90's - early 00's but keep the slimmer fit.

When does it run out ?

Look at how many teams changed their uniforms from when the Edge redesigns were introduced to what we see today. A good majority of teams abandoned their original Edge designs with only a few holdovers (Colorado, Calgary, Pittsburgh and Ottawa off the top of my head).

I sincerely hope the NHL doesn't renew their uniform license with Reebok.

Yeah I doubt they will. There's a reason they are also signing with the UFC. I know they under the same brand, but I thought CCM was taking over?

 

[Machinehead]

I love the slimmer fit. I never noticed before, but in retrospect, it makes the 90's jerseys all look like tents. I would never go back to that now.

That being said, the external designs of old were better.

 

[CanadienShark]

I certainly like the slimmer fit.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

I liked old designs and materials and fits better. Love the big loose jerseys. I dislike some "tightness" of the edge ones. But at least they brought the air knitty material back

 

[Lonewolfe2015]

I honestly like them

Agreed, as a fan I like the fit of them. However, as an Avs fan I hate the look of them. They butchered a great design.

 

[timmeh]

I like the slimmer fit also. But I feel like I'm gonna need an explanation of 'piping'. Anyone?

 

[GoodKiwi]

Anything is better than CCM

 

[Falco Lombardi]

Blues jersey got far worse with Reebok. Thankfully they changed them this season.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Glad the Blues went back to their pre-Edge look, showing that the Edge jerseys can look good.

[TrillMike]

Dallas got screwed and had to wear those God awful DALLAS ones for years. Thank god they changed.

 

[Jerk Store*]

They provide a good blank template to work with. Now how that is filled is questionable. I like the EDGE design itself. Some of the jersey designs that were introduced along with it, not so much.

I also very much like the slimmer fit.

 

[Bedards Dad]

Love the Leafs Jersey. One of the best we have had!
