I did the laundry, that was the pair of pants I was going to put on later that day. As for the bed, no excuse, I was just lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach_9 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Very nice. I was just watching some Vanek highlights earlier today. Glad it arrived - it looks great, Laf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finny Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 ah man I'm drooling..beautiful jersey my friend. I got my Colorado jersey today, it's great minus one thing that bugged me, nhl.com missed the stitching on part of the bottom inner circle on my number 8. Not impressed but hey I know, I have learned my lesson boys. Crywolf already knows as per a conversation that my next purchase is icejerseys. So do you think I could hand-stitch this sucker? it's the black part attaching to the silver inner lining. I should show a pic then you'd understand. Minor yes but still annoying. Regardless, awesome jersey Laffer, enjoy it she's a beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lafountain Posted December 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 That sucks to hear Finny, considering the cost that consumers put into jerseys you would expect things to be done right. Hope you can get that fixed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will give them the benefit of the doubt, as sometimes things can screw up... the important thing is to admit when an error is made and do what you can to rectify it to the satisfaction of the customer. I'm not sure if you contacted nhl.com about their error, but if you would like, you can send it back to us after the holidays, and we will gladly fix it for you at no charge. You could also just get it sewn locally... but it might not be done right, depends on the seamstress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finny Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Yes I wanted to ask you that, is it a special stitch or standard? It's the shipping of the jersey that bothers me just because of size and such, or else I would happily take up your offer since I trust icejerseys work. The upside is it's standard black thread, I could easily purchase that, just need someone whose good at sewing around here. Man I wish I lived in Montreal right now LOL (that's where your based right?) I won't take a shot at nhl.com, it's just an honest mistake that a 6 year old made in the sweatshop...oops did I say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 It's not hard to hand-sew, but the difference might be noticeable...plus, going through a few layers of the twill by hand can be murder on fingers that haven't built up years of calluses.

If you can find someone who knows how to do it and has the right color, you should be ok. Otherwise, just send it in to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAnothaVictim Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 just give to your local tailor and tell him what the stitching should look. just have the black thread stitch through the jersey, i mean without having the number removed. nevermind if the numbers were pre-sewn before the were attached to the jersey i hope my English doesn`t too bad and you understand what I mean As for me, I have my own sewing machine. i sew most of the lettering kits and patches on my jerseys all by myself. if i get jerseys with a lettering that's totally ...whatever, I removed it, replace it sew it back on. it's very easy. I have a lfew "customers" sending their jerseys and lettering kits to me to have it sewn onto their jerseys coz they heard that I'm doing a good job.

DesertRat Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I wish I could sew. I'm a bit too clumsy and would probably put a hole through my jersey or something. I encounter enough patches to where it would save me a few trips to my favorite embroiderer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm always forking over money to get patches sewn on. JeffB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAnothaVictim Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I would even cut the lettering kits on my own, if I had a source where I can buy twill and everything for lettering. some of the lettering kits on my jerseys are completely made by myself.

A friend of mine from 10 years ago used to do jersey lettering as a business, right out of his house. I remember spools Liebe tackle-twill. He had plenty of number and letter templates. The guy was very precise about all his work and helped cook up some custom stuff for me. I really need to learn how to sew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAnothaVictim Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Just found this picture of Roenick probably wearing my jersey. I can't tell for sure because the jersey has no visible wear to match the photo. But it's his first season with the "new" Coyotes jersey and the regular season gamers carry the "Decade In The Desert" patch, while the (only) red training camp jersey doesn't. I'm so proud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they signed Roenick, Jovanovski, Boynton and Laraque last summer, they quickly suited them up, got them on the ice and produced promo photos, which included action pictures. Some of the photos are used on the season tickets and on the team's official website. Whether or not the one in the picture is the actual very item that you bought, I'm not sure, but I wouldn't rule it out, either. I don't know if the team tagged the jerseys used in the promo pics.
