An interesting take- that was never mentioned in the films.....then again McFly didn't seem to have a lot of money...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperTheGreat Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Reading the recent posts re: armpit gussets on replica jerseys and thought I'd add my limited info: I have 90s Starter replicas, many Avs and 1 Coyotes, one late 90s CCM Senators replica, a 2001 CCM North American all star replica and two 2000 Pro Player replicas. All have armpit gussets. Starter & Pro Players have double elbows and shoulders as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chow_hound Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 The difference is the gusset itself. Not the lack of one. If you look at pro version ccm from the 90's era the gusset is reinforced with double line stitching to prevent tearing as are all major seams. The replicas have the gusset but its not reinforced nor are any of the seams. I guess the overall point icodex was making was there are little differences between the airknit replicas and airknit pro jerseys. On a pure visual level most agree that the obvious visual differences are fight strap, double elbows, hem details and tagging. However the physical construction does have finer detail differences that would be labor intensive to replicate correctly as they are part of the construction process and cannot simply be added as easy as a fight strap.

Don't you have a Wild Wing gamer, can you post a picture of the under arm gusset and a close up of the stitching? Oh and the Air-Knit material front and back. I just want to compare and I completely understand what you're saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chow_hound Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 This is my Wild Wild Gamer compared with a 95-96 Canucks Alt Replica which was convenient to grab as the color shows what i am talking about better. If you notice, the Replica seams of the gusset appear to stick up a little bit as the construction is made by taking 2 pieces of fabric, lining them up even at the edge, sewing the edges together, and then flipping it inside out. This is how the replica is constructed and what you have is a little stitched seam. The Pro version then takes it another step further by having a double stitched line pattern and a type of yarn called wooly nylon which is used to reinforce all of these seams and sews the edges flat against the jersey. The wooly nylon is a stretch thread which allows the jersey to flex and creates give if the jersey is pulled on. If NHL players wore Replica construction jerseys they would literally come apart at the seams. The Jersey itself is made of the exact same air-knit for both replica, and pro.

Sweet man thanks for posting the pictures and confirming that the material is the same and the two different types of stitch patterns are used between the two types of jerseys.

chadarini Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 The wooly nylon is a stretch thread which allows the jersey to flex and creates give if the jersey is pulled on. Then someone at Reebok thought, "what if we made the jersey completely out of stretch material".. And boom! EDGE is born..

chow_hound Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 "crotch under area is breathable polyester, inside the pants are dusty, etc" COUNT ME IN! In all seriousness, they are a nice pair of Supra's. Would look good on a full body mannequin display with the matching jersey and socks. One could easily get carried away with that.

ScotiaCygnus Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Tonight dear friends, I am a happy man. After cleaning up the glue residue from the flock printing I'd put on it - I've finally been able to sell my horrible, horrendous, cursed Red Wings fashion jersey that I bought when I was a jersey n00b. It may have been kinder to burn it, but hell someone wanted it enough, it had 14 watchers at its peak on eBay. Wave bye-bye... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
