AM34 Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 First of alll: I wish everybody a happy and healthy new year! Maybe someone can help: I just received a GI jersey from the Preds (19-20 season) and I noticed that the nameplate is only screenprinted. Did I have just bad luck because my player (Holzer) was joining the team very late and the equipment manager had to rush or are these nameplates common for their GW/GI jerseys?

Schlepprock32 Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 No bad luck here. Their names are sublimated onto the nameplate. You’re good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiggoalie Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 Out of curiosity, does it have a Meigray tag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another point, sublimation is better than screen printing. The ink is fully embedded IN the material, rather than just stuck on top. Less likely to crack, peel, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM34 Posted January 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 Thanks for your help and explanation! I didn‘t know that! The last Predators jersey I bought was 2003 ☺️... I‘m also a absolute beginner with Adidas MICs... That sublimated nameplate doesn‘t bother me anymore 😅 But I learned another detail how inauthentic Adidas Indos are produced (they all have stiched letters)... @thebiggoalie: Yes it has!

What’s the year and number? You can look it up for a little more accuracy. I’m not an expert on Preds jerseys, but do they sublimate the names all season, or is that just a preseason thing?

AM34 Posted January 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 It‘s a 19-20, Set3. So definitly not preaseason! Since Schlepprock’s posting I meanwhile believe that they do it on all their Adidas on-ice jersey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The numbers too, with "fake" layering of different colors, and the guitar strings/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
