Leafs 1978-92 style jersey w/ ProPlayer tagging?

It's finally time.

It's just came out of the wash, hence the darker twill and logos, and is airdrying right now. I discovered upon looking at it that the sleeve numbers are a little high up. There's also no laundry tag , anywhere on the jersey (or at least in the usual places). Oh and it also has a white twill nameplate.

Looks like the white material is CCM airknit as well. If the crest and shoulder patches are heat-pressed and not stitched, then it would seem to be very similar to a CCM vintage replica, but why it has a ProPlayer tag is beyond me. If it's a fake, as a previous poster stated, at least it looks like it's made of legit materials, and appears to be of better quality than the typical fakes you see.

What about the lack of a back hem logo? The ProPlayer jerseys I have had always had one.

Everything is stitched down. Logos, patches, customisation - everything. The ProPlayer thing is super strange too. I'm not even mad over the whole thing though, for a (unconfirmed) fake it's the best looking fake I've ever seen. The foul over the C on the front of a Gilmour first-season-as-a-Leaf jersey doesn't bother me enough to take it off. I would like to one day move the sleeve numbers further down the sleeve but a) I wouldn't know how to and B) I don't know anything about positioning haha

SP fabrics: http://www.spapparel.com/data/images/Tissus_2013.jpg

Assuming your jersey was made using an SP material, it would be like fabric #8 in the chart. But, from what I've seen, Pro Player replicas were made of a material like fabric #5 (example here: www.ebay.com/itm/Calgary-Flames-Jersey-Mens-Small-Retro-Vintage-Pro-Player-Throwback-/111661503869). That, and in the picture of the sleeve numbers, the two white panels look like they're made of two different fabrics.

It's weird. And even more-so because it's missing the branding on the sleeve and hem.

Whatever it is its one of t.o's best worn styles. Wish they would bring it back as an alternate.

That customization though. Not good at all.
