lfcjari37 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere but what are the differences between the 2 types of jersey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Russian Rocket Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 They're cut differently and the 2.0 is mostly Air Knit with panels of X-trafil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Russian Rocket Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I find the Edge jerseys have slightly longer arms and torso but not as roomy across the chest. The bottom hem of the 6100s are relatively flat compared to the contoured ones found on the Edge and Edge 2.0. X-trafil and Ultrafil are totally different. Ultrafil is thicker and more tightly woven made of 100% polyester whereas X-trafil is a mix of polyester and spandex and it's almost like a mesh-like material.

The Russian Rocket Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Thanks a lot for that info, gives me a good idea of the differences I can take a photo of the two materials if you like to give you a side by side comparison. The thing is I only have Ultrafil jerseys in black and X-trafil in White, Green and Blue so it won't be a direct comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnaby Joe Sakic Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I can help here too. White Ultrafil: Here's an Air Knit nameplate on burgundy Xtrafil. The Avalanche still make their home burgundys this way: Here's blue Air Knit on blue Xtrafil: Hope that helps a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
