DevsMan84 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 This was posted in another forum. This eBay seller is claiming this is a salesman sample of the presumably the new Fanatics Breakaway replica jersey line. http://m.ebay.com/itm/122636180788?_mwBanner=1 if this is true, I can imagine the counterfeiters will make a killing. This looks cheap and awful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsfan118 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 ..so.. is the thought process to knock the quality way down, and still charge a ton of money for a replica? No way I'd spend more than $30 on the item listed above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck the Duck Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 2 hours ago, '7' said: It's just a cheap really expensive long sleeve t-shirt Corrected. I guess this makes sense since their goal was to make the jerseys lighter and easier to fold . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicomo Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Who cares about being able to fold a jersey? Do most people not hang them up? Seems like an odd selling point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonDreads Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 If I end up buying one of the new Adidas jerseys, it'll be an authentic for sure. I was already against the replicas when I heard the Fanatics logo would be on the back, and iirc, the replicas will now be $100 and the authentics will be $200, so an authentic is much more affordable now.

DevsMan84 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Regarding the purported salesman sample I posted, the logo looks sublimated while the lettering looks screened. Since usually salesman samples are lesser quality than the real thing I hope this is the case here. Won't know either way until next month. yeah i was asking in the other forum about who these people Fanatics were asking in regards to being able to fold and other nonsense. Even the most casual of jersey people I know have never stated that as an issue even for replicas. authentics seem to be the ways to go and with the even more wonky pricing structure, it will be worth spending a little bit more to get something that is not a glorified long sleeved shirt. That includes even if the authentics are not 100% like the on-ice ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Out of interest has anyone see a jersey like this before? Made by CCM , got it off eBay years ago for next to nothing. Made by CCM. Think the tag says 1986. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Would also need to see the hem tagging on back but looks like a replica of the mid 80's version of the Devils jerseys. Devils wore mesh from 82-83 season till 85-86 when they switched over to ultrafil in the middle of the season. They wore ultrafil till 87-88 season when they switched to airknit. They went back to ultrafil then in 88-89 season. the jersey looks like a replica model based on the crest or a shell made by a third party with the crest added by someone afterwards.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Yep, still awful pajama-tops...if those were on ebay two years ago we'd all be talking about how f'd up they are.

Satans Hockey Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I still hate them. At least during games I'll be able to tune them out but I just hate seeing pictures of them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Side note, I'm wondering if Zacha sticks with 37 again this year. I know it was his training camp number a couple of years ago but 33 was Nicos and he already is changing to 13. This is what I think of in the offseason.

It looks like utter garbage. There really is no other way to describe it. It's a knockoff jersey that was just washed and dried and left in a pile of unsorted wrinkly clothes on the couch. I can't believe they would wear such vile excrement and pass it off as a jersey. The collar is completely ruined too. It's just this plain red round piping. I never really appreciated the old devils collar enough but it fit with the jersey well and was nice and classy. This is just...odd and unnecessary. I do like the DamNJ shirt though. Want one of those. Edited August 28, 2017 by '7' 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
