thk25 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Has anyone had an old Reebok edge Flyers jersey customized by Philly Express recently? A buddy living in Florida asked me to have an edge 2.0 customized for him. I called the NE Philly Skatezone and they said Philly Express could handle it but has anyone here recently had a non - current jersey customized by them?

jsh139 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 I haven't had one customized by them recently. But, be aware that they changed from layered to kiss-cut numbers with the introduction of Adidas jerseys in 2017. So, you'll need to be sure you ask for them to make them layered for a 2.0. Which style, BTW? Current looking home orange/road white? Or, old home/third black/road white? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thk25 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Thanks man. It is the current looking road white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think they would be able to do it to spec. Just need to specify you want layered numbers. If you had said the older white or black you’d probably be out of luck as I wouldn’t trust them to do the font properly since they weren’t the original customizers at that time.

jsh139 Posted October 15, 2019 Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) Keener just sent out the official announcement. Just says they are putting it on hold. So, hopefully it's just a temporary thing. Maybe they'll do this every year going forward? Quote Hey everyone!

furiousd Posted October 15, 2019 Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 Heh, I didn't get on the announcement list, and I even have jerseys there right now. I still think your last comment is the most likely scenario. Squeezing in the customer orders has to slow down the assembly-line type stuff. Did you see that stack of Preds numbers? That must have been enough to do 10 Dudes* worth of jerseys. * Defined as 20 jerseys, or the typical order The Dude Abides sends to Keener.

Yeah, their business is probably just taking off and they don’t want to harm that with slowdowns of small potatoes stuff. They’ve got a lot of teams to do. I follow the Green Bay Gamblers and I noticed the other day their jerseys have the KJ logo on the back. So I guess they’re getting into USHL teams now. Good for them.

JJM4 Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 For anyone who got a last minute order in with Keener looks like the wait is going to be a little longer than normal. I sent an order Sept 10 that was just invoiced so 6 weeks for invoice, and likely a bit of a wait yet for finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They received my order at the US shipping address on August 24, invoice was paid 5 weeks ago. Haven’t heard anything yet, but hopefully it won’t be much longer until I get a shipping notification.

So I doubt it will be much longer for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJM4 Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Haha, awesome! Look forward to seeing this order of yours now. And at least if yours are coming 5 weeks after payment, I should see my order before Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furiousd Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Haha, nice! I suppose I should cool my jets, if it's taking them a while to clear the final collector orders. They've only had mine two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did email for a second time about it today though and Josh said it's complete and will likely be invoiced in the next few days. Hopefully you're not waiting much longer.

That’s an abnormally long wait, even for EPS. I had two orders submitted around that same time and they came weeks ago; I even had a July order come in already. I’d say it was because they were only nameplates and they did full customizations first because they make more money. But I don’t think so.

He just emailed the invoice minutes ago and I paid. Should finally see them soon. The first few times I used EPS the waits were half as long or less. Oh well, I'm sure I'll be pleased with the work anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavy Fan Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 I was trying to get a shipping update on my jersey order from Triple Threat Sports and received this: Hello I'm sorry to inform you that Chris has been hospitalized since 10-21-19 and has been unable to communicate by telephone or e-mail. He can address all issues and inquiries upon his return. Thank you for your patience. -Denora On a side note Hows everyone's experiences with TTT just curious?

Although Josh has confirmed that they have 2 of 3 jerseys finished, and only are working on the LV Wranglers jersey......and it should be done "soon".

JJM4 Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) I know it's not typical but my order with EPS took 21 weeks to complete, but I got it today and all I can say is it was well worth the wait, the work is beyond fantastic! It was only 2 nameplates but they're pretty rare jerseys and therefore a material match has proven tough to find. For instance, I had the 1985 North Stars sitting with Keener for a year at one point and he was unable to find matching green mesh nameplate material. No fault of Keener's, he used his last stash of it on my 87 North Stars just prior. But needless to say it's been a long time coming and it's finally done perfectly. I'll put up before and after pics tomorrow when I can get some better lighting for photos. I'll say I'm probably not the best example of their wait time obviously, but I'm very happy with the way it was handled when I did inquire. The first time I inquired they said it would be a week or so. So a month or so later I messaged again and they had it out the door and on the way that morning. Came quick to me up North too.

AN UPDATE: Still haven't received my jerseys sadly as they are not replying to my various emails guess I'm too nice , I'm out $250 dont really know what steps I should take now with them On Bright Side if you live near California or near it I would recommend Roger Hovey at Sports Fan Sewing sportsfansewing@san.rr.com He's One Man Show but is a good listener and open to any small detail you need or want and pricing is fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
