WingedWheelers Posted November 6, 2010 Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 Does anyone know if the 2010 Team USA 3rd jersey used the layered style for the lettering, or the kiss cut style? thanks in advance! Sorry, posted this in the wrong forum. Can one of the mods move it to the international forum? thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedWheelers Posted November 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 The jersey mentioned above I got from ebay, and wanted to strip and it and change to a Rafalski. I was looking online for some reference photos to send to EPS, and noticed something I hadn't noticed before for some reason. The on-ice jersey has the player name on a white nameplate below the blue shoulder area. My jersey has the nameplate on the blue shoulder material. Is this a difference between the authentic jerseys and the replicas (mine is a replica), or did I get duped and buy a fake jersey?

ewillia8 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I could be mistaken but that looks like a fake to me. If not fake then a terrible custom job. As far as the jerseys themselves. If I remember correctly from March when Meigray brought the jerseys to the NOVA expo they were traditional two layer. The nameplates were definitely heat pressed though.

mdwsta4 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Judging by the picture you posted alone it looks fake. aside from the nameplate, the strips at the elbows don't go all the way around (appear to in the photo), the white space between the stripes looks too thick, and the number is too wrinkled.

flountown Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Not to mention, the 'USA' appears to have the red drop shadow going up and right, the pictured jerseys seem to have it going down and left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedWheelers Posted November 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 So... anyone want to take this thing off my hands? Cheap? I kid. Yeah we determined it was fake on a thread in the international forum. First time I've been burned with a fake, it was an ebay impulse buy. Live and learn, good thing it was cheap.
