The new baseball jerseys have not been received well at all. The NHL will be selling Fanatics jerseys as authentics starting next year.

The answer is a very emphatic, very loud “yes.” Anyone who thought Fanatics would suddenly flip a switch and start making quality merchandise once they got a big-boy deal was naive. Making cheap crap that falls apart from a slight breeze is part of their business model.

The CCM replicas from 2000-2005 are honestly better quality than anything today, the material is thicker and more substantial than the nearly $300 made in Indonesia adidas. Yeah they're replicas so not exactly period correct, and often they had glued on logos, but the glue somehow kept all my logos attached throughout the last two decades, and you can get it stitched anyway. And importantly back then they cost a fraction of what even a fanatics knockoff does today. Now there's nowhere to avoid buying pure shite unless you shell out hundreds to get an actual stitched adidas, gamble if you can even get a limited run of that jersey you want, or buy game issued or vintage. Dark days have already come for hockey fans I think it's just getting worse.

1) In the 90's teams had multiple options for their jersey manufacturer. CCM, Pro Player, Starter and Nike (I may be forgetting someone). The on-ice quality was said to be somewhat uneven between these brands, which is why CCM was chosen to make all uniforms during the late 90's/eary 00's. 2) Between 1970 and 2003 NHL teams wore light at home, and some teams chose to wear other than white. Notably the Canucks and Golden Seals wore gold for a few years.

On the topic of chain-stitching, the Cardinals logo is chain-stitched. One of the changes that Fanatics did was to chain-stitch onto a patch (technically two, one for each side) and then just sew the patch on the jersey, where previous manufacturers would stitch directly onto the jersey. Definitely has a different effect. One of the other big changes in MLB was to shrink the player names, which obviously the players don't like and is one of the big things making them feel like replicas or knockoffs.

@thewayfarer1990
@thewayfarer1990 3 месяца назад
In all honesty, what the NHL needs to do is bring the manufacture of the jersey in house, integrate it and streamline it within the league. Go get/lease a couple of factories in Canada and/or Mexico, control production and sell them to get 100% of the profits from jersey sales without the limitations of the third party supplier. Have adidas or Nike design them if they’d like or better yet the teams themselves and problem solved. I have an early Adidas Lightning sweater and a newer Adidas and the older one feels of better quality than the newer one albeit both are great quality. Fanatics is going to teach a lesson to leagues that, as we say in Spanish translated, “what is cheap in costs now, will be more expensive than you ever bargained for later.”

CCM jerseys are by far the best, I had old CCM jerseys I bought second hand from the 80's and 90's and they're in better shape and more comfortable than a modern Fanatics jersey. Even gotten them customized they hold up really well. I suspect that Fanatics had embraced the idea of forced obsolescence in their products. It's not a problem for them that their products fall apart after a few years, it means you have to buy a new one. And if you're unhappy, well where else are you gonna go? I'm a big fan of collecting hockey jerseys, and fanatics picking up the contract probably means the end of me buying new ones. Unless they keep the on ice products in the same factories, but even those have shot through the roof. Just a couple years ago you could get a blank pro version of a jersey for $200-$300. Now they're not only not available, but even team issued unused jerseys have gone through the roof from the teams and resellers. It's a hobby that will die very quickly.

I can tell you as a Blackhawks fan, if the chain stitching goes away, it's a guarantee that I'll never buy a jersey until the end of the fanatics contract. For Christmas this year, I bought a fanatics away jersey from the Blackhawks Store to have customized as Griswold jersey. I wore it out ONCE and the shoulder patches peeled off. Luckily the store offered to pay for me to ship it back to them, then they took it to the official on-ice lettering company for the hawks and they stitched everything down. Edit to add: Jaime Faulkner, the President of Business Ops for the hawks, was on a few podcasts last summer/during the start of the season talking about seeing the Fanatics jerseys and their equipment staff putting the samples through their tests. She seemed like they were happy with them but she's also trying to get fans to still buy the jersey (Hence the return of the 90s black thirds)

The pants are _translucent!_ They're so thin you can see through them, and furthermore, they're almost universally too tight! It looks like the players are wearing uniform-colored _pantyhose_ out onto the field, and there's already a bunch of shots of players with, uh, _unfortunate elements_ on display underneath.

I wouldn’t wear the thing if it was free. The blue was closer to the unfortunate choice in the 90s than the new adidas ones, but the shoulder AND the main logo both were the cheap screen printed iron on looking ones. The stripes were also wrong, and had someone been walking around wearing that jersey, I would have assumed it was a knockoff or a particularly poorly made giveaway.

I look on the NHL website over here in the UK and it is very noticeable that there is very limited Adidas stock left. As a result an Adidas Kochina is £250/300 for example. But even though they are pretty expensive you know they are a Quality product. Even the unpoplular Grey Jets Reverse Retro is around £200. Then you have the Fanatics jerseys.......£150 for something that will fall apart in a few weeks which is already very hard to replace just is not worth it. This is why I am glad i have my Reebok Jets Authentic and my Jagr CCM Capitals Authentic. For those saying that they wish the NHL was like European Football/Soccer where the teams have agreements with different manafacturers sadly Fanatics has also got agreements to make merchandise under licence just like MLB.

Sadly I think we're going to "accept it" since it will be the only ones available to us, apart from knock-off sites.. Unless MLB/NHL/ steps up to Fanatics to demand better quality but since they were the only bidders for NHL there's not much to do here....

The Fanatics partnership is the perfect summary of our current market trend: all products are expensive to buy and are cheaply made. We used to have tiered products where depending on your budget you could go for better quality for a higher price and vice versa. That doesn’t exist anymore.

I just went to see my local ECHL team last Saturday, “Indy Fuel” and I picked up a jersey. They might be the minors, but even they have better quality jerseys than the NHL is going to have in the fall. How could Gary Bettman let this happen? A 10 year contract? Seriously? Looks like I’m going to be getting my jerseys off of eBay, or only buy jerseys from the AHL/ECHL

(1) The Nike Vapor Elite i.e. the "on-field authentics" do still have tackle twill wordmarks, names and numbers that are stitched onto the jersey. The only change for this year is that patches that were once embroidered (like the Mets skyline sleeve patch and the Dodgers "LA" sleeve patch) are now printed instead of embroidered, although the outer layer is still stitched onto the jersey. (2) It's 50/50 as to whether the Blackhawks' logo will be chain-stitched; the St. Louis Cardinals' front wordmark is still chain-stitched, although unlike pre-2024 when it was directly chain-stitched onto the JERSEY, it is now chain-stitched onto a separate PATCH which is then stitched onto the jersey. Unfortunately, the Philadelphia Phillies, who pre-2024 also had a chain-stitched wordmark on their jerseys, now have a plain tackle twill logo stitched on the front. So if the Blackhawks DO continue with chain-stitched logos, it will most likely be on a separate patch and sewn onto the jersey, which obviously is not as nice as stitching it directly onto the jersey.

The quality of my knock-off Colorado "Nordiques" Reverse Retro I got shipped from China is miles ahead of my Fanatics Sabres jersey. The Sabres jersey I wore maybe twice and is already a bubbly mess.

This is the inevitable result of the original fanatics contract. There was never going to be any other outcome with Fanatics owning the rights to the more profitable replica jerseys. That's why Adidas released "pro" replicas instead of the on-ice jerseys. They were trying to compete in the replica market, and it only worked because Fanatics' jerseys are terrible quality. People were happy to pay more to avoid fanatics. Needless to say, Fanatics weren't too happy with that. They had to unify the replicas and on-ice jerseys under one brand... it's just upsetting that Fanatics ended up being that brand. It is a bush-league company, and I will never support them. I will be picking up an Adidas Stutzle away jersey. I bought a used CCM Alfredsson jersey and managed to find a new pro Reebok Karlsson jersey for like 40$.

I wonder about pricing/sales going forward. It never seems like Fanatics jerseys go below the sales they already set (a player jersey below $130 for example or a retired style blank jersey for under $100), but Adidas jerseys you can find for all kinds of prices, often cheaper than Fanatics.

I got a Red Wings Larkin jersey a few years ago using some gifts cards I had, and I almost never wear it. I just don't like the way the jersey feels, it feels a little too snug, and the fabric doesn't feel as good to me as the Reeboks did. I also *hate* the logo, which ain't even stitched on and my NHL logo at the neck is peeling off too

I saw on Twitter where someone placed a bet on an over for yards by a player. The player got over, then lost yards on a play, putting them under. Fanatics called it as under, guy lost the bet. Game wasn't over, player eventually finished on the over.

I haven't bought a hat I liked ever since Old Time Hockey was bought out. They made the best flexfit hats around and now most companies only release hats with straps. I'm still rocking a mid-2000s Oilers hat and a 2011 Bruins hat made by OTH.

The Devils stadium jerseys are sold out in Adidas and only women and youth Fanatics are available on the NHL shop. But, other teams aren't sold out, figures 🙄. The Fanatics women's jerseys bother me. I don't like them. I'm a woman, but I don't want a lower cut jersey with what they think us a woman's fit. I want jersey just like the players wear. So, I'm not buying one of those women's. I am also concerned about the color and quality. I hope if things get bad the NHL does something, but I won't hold my breath.

They also have a deal with WWE. I have a Ducks jersey that's the old CCM, A few Rangers Rebooks and a few Fanatics. Most of them have been fine, but my Coyotes jersey they got the wrong color and letting on the back nameplate and number, despite the fact they got it right on the sleeves and as a UK fan, jerseys are ridiculously expensive as it is. For me part of the interesting this is there was Adidas which was the offical on ice product and Fanatics were the cheaper replica option, with Fanatics taking over as the on ice manufacturer as well, will they just stop doing the cheaper version entirely? Cos No way I'm playing 500+ for a jersey, I'll just stick to getting older jersey's. Especially none named ones, the Rangers haven't really changed their home and away design in forever nor have the Bruins, at least not over the last few years. Of course if other people have the same idea then you can bet the price of those to also start going up as well.
