MountainKing Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I did some searching but was not able to come up with pictures on past threads. Does anybody have, or can you get me close ups of the customization on the wild wing jersey? Also any other details anybody can provide me will be helpful, I'm looking to get mine done up as a Kariya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No nameplate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyOnTheSpot Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I know this doesn't exactly answer your question, but here's my Selanne for reference: I got this done a gamesdaysportsarchive.com. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chow_hound Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 My 2 cents on it. Gamedaysportsarchives has the exact font and numbering, and as above, the numbers are 2 layer, Eggplant purple base, with White Glacier Twill ontop. The name itself though is White Glacier Twill, HOWEVER, Gamedaysportsarchives has the font Too thick, almost like it's Bolded. If you take a look at the gamers the font is much thinner. The reason i'm guessing Truman has a thicker font is because the stitching of these jerseys is a PAIN IN THE ___. It's probably the closest you're going to get, and is 99.9% accurate. http://www.gamewornjerseys.com/cgi-bin/jersey/jersey.cgi?sillinger2 Compare the "S" "L" "N" and "E" in Sillinger to the Selanne, the detail is more intricate on the gamer.

JohnnyOnTheSpot Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Hmm, interesting. I hadn't noticed that. Doesn't really bug me all that much as it still looks great. I think EPS has the font, they might be worth calling. They did my Lightning alternate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainKing Posted February 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I spoke with Triple Threat today and they have done a few of these. I'd still like some good reference pictures of gamers to bring with it but I'll probably have them give it a run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING_4 Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Here is my Wildwing jersey.

MountainKing Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Thank you everybody for the help...I take it Selanne did not wear the A that year or is the A too high up? Now I'm thinking about doing Selanne instead of Kariya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm thinking about doing Selanne instead of Kariya. No A, unfortunately. He got it the next year I believe. I think Kariya had one...Ewen had something. Ask Lightning he loves Ewen haha.

MountainKing Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I know Kariya had an A on that jersey, I've seen pictures of him..I'm not sure if he had it all year but he had it at least in a game that they wore the wildwing....my objection to the A is I think it takes away from the front.

I hear ya, but I always think the more going on the better. It's pretty hard to detract away from the...beauty...of this jersey haha.

Brilliant! Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 It doesn't look like it's glacier twill. In fact, that looks like the same one I had purchased from EPS a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudrock512 Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hey Everyone, Sorry to bump up a real old topic, but has anyone gotten a Wild Wing jersey customized by EPS or Keener recently? Or, if someone actually has a Game Worn jersey - even better. If so, could anyone measure the dimensions of numbers an letters for me? I was planning on sending mine to EPS when they have their sale, but have a chance to just get the kit, just want to make sure it is correct or at least fairly close.
