TMLFAN Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I noticed lately that a lot of retailers are blowing out their remaining Edge jerseys and many of them have been stating that they expect new supply sometime around the beginning of the season (October). I'm thinking that Reebok is giving retailers a chance to get rid of whatever 1.0's they have in time for the roll out of the 2.0's for retail come September/October. Anybody else thinking and hoping the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac1124 Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Hopefully that is true. Maybe I can pick up some Canucks ones for cheap or on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob77ta Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Don't know if retail is going to 2.0 Edge jerseys but they should because I think the 1.0 material is crap. If you are shopping for an on ice authentic jersey, it should be the same jersey the pros wear like in the CCM days. Sure it would make my 2.0 gamers a little less special to me but at least it would be good for the hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasty Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Wouldn't this be something that icejerseys could confirm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaNoobie Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 pretty sure they wouldnt be allowed to if its true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasty Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 i can see them not being allowed to reveal the jerseys....but that they'd be selling 2.0? that's retarded.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Ullman Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 I was in the NHL Shop last week and many of their authentics looked to be the new ones (though I didn't check 'em all). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andub Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 I can't see them selling 2.0's, but hey, I can always hope. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaneIsDirty Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 The thing that is starting to make me think that Reebok will release the 2.0's is that Toronto released their new jerseys a while back yet I haven't found a site selling them yet. Fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guam64 Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 I can see it happening, but Reebok will do it quietly because an announcement of any sort will just bring on bad publicity for them. I would think it comes down to publicity though. They already retail 2.0s in the AHL, and I would imagine they are cheaper to produce than the 1.0s.

DerbyCoyote Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Have all teams gone to 2.0s now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMLFAN Posted July 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Have all teams gone to 2.0s now? Yes, but I believe some players still use 1.0's but I may be wrong. If they do come out with the 2.0's I can see Reebok claiming it as an improvement over their original design. I don't think many people are aware of the fact that they went back to the old material.

akteon Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 I don't think all teams have fully gone to 2.0 yet. I'm waiting on the 2009-10 population report from MeiGray to see how the numbers stack up. Here's my previous analysis: More info can be found in this thread. Unfortunately not all teams participate in the MeiGray program (about half do) so nothing can be said with complete certainty for the whole league. I am hoping that the 2009-10 population report shows close to 100% use of the Edge 2.0, as that will hopefully lead to the 2.0s finally being available for retail.

Van27 Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 The only team I haven't noticed any Edge 2.0 jerseys with (HD TV is awesome lol) are the Oilers. Every time I see one of their players doing an interview with the camera up close, it's clearly a 1.0. I would be surprised if the 2.0 gets released at retail. Some companies who sell jerseys won't even acknowledge that the material is different from the 1.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace King Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 I was at the TeamLA store at Staples Center today and what I saw were the LA Kings' Edge 1.0's being sold retail and game worn Edge 2.0's for $1500 The material for the 2.0's were definitely the "old air knit style" for the ENTIRE jersey, but the jersey collar tag showed 7187H ??. In contrast, only parts of the 1.0's were "air knit style" I much preferred the 2.0 styling as it felt more rugged and durable. But I got the 1.0's at like $75 !! They rang them up as replicas !

Shenanigans Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 I work for the Canucks store and so far we aren't preparing for any 2.0's to come in. If I catch wind of it I'll certainly let you guys know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Patrick Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 So whats the difference between the 2.0's and the older style Edge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 The 2.0's have air-knit material for the front panel, arms and shoulders instead of the x-trafil crap. They seem to be a little larger too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
