TheKevinShow Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 Right now, I'm working on a concept design series to depict what the NHL would look like if Nike took over the contract. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so I'm really trying to perfect my template and unfortunately I've run into some problems - the kind of problems that will probably necessitate me re-starting the project from the beginning.Anyway, I'm looking for some good pictures that detail the stitching of the jerseys, specifically the back. I know that the jerseys have the mesh panels that go down the sides of the torso, but diagrams of other (past) Nike jerseys show a horizontal mesh panel running across the lower back that connects the bottom of the two side panels. I need to know if that feature is still present. Additionally, where (if at all, since I don't think they bother with it for international jerseys since fighting isn't kosher) the fight strap is attached with relation to the rest of the jersey.All in all, I want to make this template as accurate as possible. Any photographs that might help (or advice on improving the template) would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IIHFjerseycollector Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 here are decent close up photos of a game worn team norway jersey from the 2014 olympics thanks to Oxbo1690 for owning this fine jersey.. http://forums.icejerseys.com/index.php?showuser=3833 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKevinShow Posted June 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 OK, so there's no horizontal mesh panel. That helps a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobcat1988 Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 A ton of jerseys from Sochi have been auctioned in the past few months. Lots of the auctions have some pretty solid pictures you could use as a resource. For example: http://www.classicauctions.net/Default.aspx?tabid=266&auctionid=78&op=viewcat&catid=2 http://auctions.nhl.com/iSynApp/auctionDisplay.action?auctionId=117335 http://auction.nhl.com/iSynApp/auctionDisplay.action?auctionId=121912 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKevinShow Posted June 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Hmm. So I do need to get rid of the horizontal mesh panel from my template. Do I have the fight strap too low or are my numbers too small? Here's what the template looks like with a team design applied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKevinShow Posted June 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 (edited) Alright, here's where the template was originally:And here it is after the first round of revisions:Thoughts? Also, I should note that my template is based on this template (because I prefer the shape of that template) and so there may be some issues getting it to look right. Edited June 18, 2014 by Kevin W.
