furiousd Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I can't wait to see a FanFlex Hawks crest. I'm sure it'll be gorgeous. That Jersey Assurance feature is kinda cool, I have to admit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhg39 Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) Wow, and only $199.99 for a customized one with what looks like heat pressed vinyl numbers! Edited September 27, 2017 by lhg39 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Jersey Assurance feature is kinda cool, I have to admit. I'll second that. However, at $130 for quality I can only assume is inferior to the previous Reebok replicas.. This redefines rip off. And if the quality of customization is anything like the previous jerseys from shop.nhl.com, the jersey assurance will hold no value as they'll be replacing a one disappointing jersey with another one.

SnakeOiler12 Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 OMG, the "lifestyle" photos on that product page are hillarious! They almost seem like satire, mocking themselves. The baby sleeping on the Winged Wheel "FanFlex" crest takes the prize as most cliched! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Cannon Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 There's a lawsuit waiting to happen. "if anything EVER happens to your jersey..." The actual program states " Your jersey is covered under Jersey Assurance for 90 days following your purchase. For player movement claims, you have 14 days to file a claim after the movement is officially announced by team or league. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I couldn't find a link to the actual policy on Jersey Assurance. Do you have one? The text in the ice,m listings seems to imply you can do it at any time, which makes zero sense. What if a guy plays for the team for 20 years and then retires, they would replace a 20 year old jersey? Something is better than nothing, but if its 90 days, they should be very up front about it.

It is if the player is traded within 90 days of purchase. Would have been good for Ryan Callahan after the Winter Classic for example. http://www.fanatics.com/pages/Jersey_Assurance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Its a very interesting program. but they should advertise it correctly. It also covers permanent damage occurring in the first 90 days; given how prone to pulling the Premiers were, that is a real possibility. But I wonder what they would consider "permanent damage". Interesting also that it does not include number changes within the same team. With the Indos costing $180, I don't see who would buy one of these for $140. But if that's what you want to do, knock yourself out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knockoffs get so many things wrong, at least the Hawks ones that I've seen. Unless creased emlems and puffy, wrinkled numbers are your thing.

TMLFAN Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 So in Cdn funds this Fanactics jerseys comes in at about $170. Why the hell would you buy that when you can get the "authentic" adizero right of adidas.ca for $30 more? Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not wanting to take the mickey out of anyone for not having the same standards as me when it comes to hockey jerseys (first world problems), but this has been the main question for me ever since the pricing was announced. Why would you not go for the Indo? Because it's "scratchy" compared to faeco-flex? I think my epidermis can take it. And $70 for second rate customisation? Shame NHL, shame on you.

Yes, you're missing an overpriced "Breakaway" Fanatics jersey in your closet!! And a dent in your bank account.

cowboys Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) F##K Fanactics they are nothing but money crapping crooks .
