chadarini Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 The fake WC jerseys with the stars on the arms and the wrong crest are absolutely hilarious... How fake a fan are you if you don't even know what jerseys the team was wearing in one of heir biggest regular season games ever? Haha well said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sk3 Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Scrolls through thread... HOLY s*** A SALMON KINGS JERSEY! Im trying to find the Save on foods and canadian flag and SP patches, because i dont think the team sold authentics came with patches either (Im pretty sure a slight fabric and cut difference, along with a fightstrap was the only difference between it and a replica.) So im trying to make my replica look like an on ice jersey......no luck.... at all. But nice SKings jersey, Couture is a great guy, and was a decent player too.

lfcjari37 Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Just arrived today, worn during the last regular season game at Mellon Arena. My first 2.0 too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimcutta Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 But like I said, I'm an a******.....(and if a mod is going to edit this, at least have the stones to say who you are) It was me, but does it really matter who did it? I'm just trying to do what was asked of me from icejerseys - keep the vulgarity to a minimum. If you're obviously swearing, and a mod edits your post, take the hint and move on. It's nothing personal. Please respect the rules (that weren't established by me). Also, pls dont' respond to this here, let's keep these topics on track. If you have a problem feel free to pm me.

Brilliant! Posted April 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 That one hurts. Such a nice looking jersey that's just destroyed. Poor Wilf Paiement must be rolling in his grave. Oh wait...he's not dead yet, is he? Getting the appropriate vinyl to seal onto that again is tricky though. I wouldn't even know where to start with that. It sure would come out nice in the end if it did work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimcutta Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 I actually tackled it already, and although it's going to take me forever to do the entire jersey, I'm happy to say I figured it out. I put wax paper on the number and iron (pressing hard), and gradually the vinyl kept coming out (less and less on the paper each time). Once there was hardly any more left on the paper and the jersey felt soft in the area, I went to the acetone trick, and cleaned thoroughly with soap. The right arm is untouched, the left arm #2 is with the iron/wax paper only (note it's no longer shiny, but still present), and the left arm #7 is the iron/wax paper, acetone, soap, rinse, and it's pretty much completely gone (even to the naked eye) - I'll document as I go and do a complete write up on the project once done. Where are you going to have the Lindros AS done up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warcry Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) OK then. I might bring them one, just to try them out and see how I like it. What was the turnaround time like? Turnaround time is great. They ship overnight via FedEx to arena wear and get it back via fedex overnight once it's done. Usually they tell you 7-10 days but it's closer to 7. I got stitching done there twice and once came in 7 days other in 5 days. You can pay an extra 50 bucks to get it rushed (3 days) but I would not recommend that unless you jus have money out the Arse ready to wipe with.

warcry Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 It's so ridiculous going to MSG - it's like 3/4 of the arena is wearing fakes or those god awful Premiers with their heat pressing. I can't help but point them out to my buddies. It's amazing sitting in the 100 sections, where tickets are $200 or more, and these clowns are wearing $40 Chinese jerseys. The Rangers store at the Garden actually has some 1.0's left in 54 and 56. They're $250, but at this point with supply drying up, it's not a terrible option. Was checking out some customized Indo's yesterday in the store, and they're just embarrassing. If you know anyone that has season tix, the best thing to do is to go to a game when they have the 50% off promotions going on for the authentics. They are on random days and the promotion is for a single game, usually announced on the day of. The last time I saw the promo was at the Habs game in late march, was at every playoff game but the last one and they didn't have it then either. What pisses me off about the MSG store is that they're so eager to make a buck that they'd do anything. Like selling pressed Kreider authentics. I was disgusted when I saw that and let everyone in my vicinity know. Everyone checking out the jerseys just stopped checking them out after that lol. As for the garden crowd, I don't think they care. I know most of my friends tha wear jerseys get them as gifts or would rather own 3 replicas of players they like over one authentic one. I guess it's a matter of preference. Whenever I take friends to games and jersey convos come up, I always let them know the differences between real and fake and never shy away from using a nearby fan's fake as an illustration lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely, I got to the Garden about 14 times this year, and didn't see the promotion once. That's not to say it didn't happen, as many times I'm taking clients to our suite on the 10th level... and I'm just not able to look for merch. By next season, all they'll have left is Indo-Edges anyway and then we'll be SOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Matthews Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 I think the best deal I saw was 40% off. Maybe 50% off but only on one style like the whites. Either way, still overpriced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akteon Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 With all this talk of Rangers WC jerseys lately, figured I should finally post the replicas I was able to get. Although I got these 3 for about the price of a customized authentic, I'd rather have the authentic. Stupid Reebok. The Callahan and Richards are factory customized replicas. Felt name/numbers with airknit nameplate glued to jersey. The Lundqvist was a blank purchased from and customized by SportsK. Felt name/numbers with airknit nameplete sewn to the jersey.

CJ Matthews Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Nice. I think I've settled on Lundqvist for mine, but I'm not sure now if I should send it to EPS, or bring it to the NHL Store since they send them to the place that does the Rangers jerseys... Thoughts?

Poopy Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 the customization looks kinda bad.. Callahan the 4 is not the correct font or spacing..the middle of the 4 is huge compared to the actual font. Lundqvist the 30 is so close together You were better off getting a Authentic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akteon Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 You were better off getting a Authentic Poopy - you seem to not understand that myself and many others have been TRYING to get authentic Rangers WC jerseys, but Reebok didn't manufacture many at all and most retailers weren't even able to order them.

My Richards kit came from EPS and I find it's pretty much spot on if not 100%. If the NHL store is anything run like the website, they'll tell you that then try to do it themself or they used to do that but stopped from reason (not saying this will happen just saying this is the NHL we are talking about) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
