DesertRat Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 After seeing the Borat movie, I thought that it would be pretty unique to have a Borat hockey jersey. When I didn't want a Kazakh jersey (which is the history of time until I saw the movie), I stumbled across them easily. Now that had I wanted one, they were nowhere to be found. The best I could find was a Pavlodar Irtysh jersey, that's a Kazakh team. It's in the similar teal national color, so it looked close enough for me to buy one. Customization was included, so I decided to go for it. The jersey was special-ordered from Lutch, so I had to wait a while to get it. I chose #72, the year I think that Borat or Sacha Baron Cohen was born. The lettering was in Cyrillic and spells Borat's last name, Sagdiyev. The lettering and graphics are all heat-sublimated. I bought it on ebay from global_hockey, who usually carries some interesting international jerseys. VERY NICE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafountain Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Very interesting idea, and also a very nice looking one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Is that a seagull in the middle of that crest?? What a crazy country! I really liked the jerseys the national team wore to the Olympics in Torino. Probably the only one of the Swift jerseys I did like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Man would I love to have that non-swift jersey pictured there. The 1993 or 1995 style would fit my collection so perfectly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafountain Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Oh, Thanks a lot Desert. Now you gave me another source to drain my wallet. I went and looked at that seller and he has a Kovalchuk on there that I would like to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordStanley1893 Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 That's really unique desert. Awesome find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRat Posted July 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 That is a seagull on the crest. Why? Tasty, maybe. I like how it reads Kazakhstan on the waist in the back. I found rosters and there are no players on there that I ever heard of. A Kazakh Antropov jersey would be one to look for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
