sundstrom Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 STH will have ability to buy Authentics for $180 over the next week or so. They have set them aside specifically for that. I also called Exclusive PRO and they say that they can customize them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-customized Hall and choose your own player still available). I suppose we don't know how many they had, maybe it was like 10 total. But that seems unlikely. I'm not surprised at the early "it's new so I gotta have it" crowd (I think even the Fishsticks and Buffaslugs sold well initially...and the new Nashville ones are also moving). It's the long-term sales that will be interesting to see...I readily admit that I have no idea how that will turn out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I ordered one. I am in the "it's new so I have to have it" crowd. I'll horrify you all with pictures when it arrives. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll horrify you all with pictures when it arrives. Did you get a blank, a Hall, or a different player? I have a bunch of stuff I need to get sent to Exclusive Pro: A white Edge 2.0 to be a #21 Palmieri (I have a second white but am going to wait for a while (maybe years) to see who I want to get on that one...could be Butcher, McLeod, someone unforeseen, who knows?) A red Edge 2.0 to be a #13 Hischier A blue Rockies #9 McDonald (misspelled MacDonald) that I'm going to have converted to a #9 Lever A white Rockies to be a #16 Malinowski (told the story before basically I had a conversation with him once and he was just a super-nice and very open guy. Been a fan of his ever since). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quicker to receive than a custom player, and still returnable if I feel like it. Free shipping and free return via Shoprunner. Just said what the fvck and went for it. Blanks were already sold out in my size, I'd have preferred that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also said it would be $130 including shipping which is much higher than EP has ever charged to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, EPS confirmed they are not doing it for the Devils this season. Problem is, as another poster pointed out on FB earlier today, judging by the pics from yesterday it looks like the font has changed on the lettering of the new jerseys. Instead of the nice, bold EPS font they are using the skinny looking font that the Den uses. If that is what it will be going forward is anyone's guess. This is why while I plan on getting at least one of the new jerseys (not counting gamers), I am holding off until the customization becomes more clear.

They quoted $75. So maybe, as you say, they will do it with the lettering/font they have from the past and perhaps it won't be 100% accurate but if it's 98% accurate and unless you have a microscope you can't tell, that will be ok for me. Frankly, the Devils Den font is not as nice as the EPS as you say so perhaps I am improving on the Devils actual jersey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satans Hockey Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Unfortunately it's my jersey tenure year, it's free so I'll take it but it's going straight in the back of the closest and I'll never wear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went on around 6am and they were already sold out of 50s so I went for a larger size which said was in stock but then got bumped out. I checked again around 3pm and the sizes seemed to have replenished so I got a Hischier. We'll see what happens. I just want one to have one. That's it.

I'm gonna do the same for this one. Figure one of these years I'll frame them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonDreads Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 That's the standard practice jersey for every team, that's the new template for all the teams under Adidas with the design and the logo being in the center of a circle, so nothing the team can do there.

I actually like those, and I think what they did with the Adidas stripes works on a practice jersey, so glad they didn't do that to game jerseys. That being said, being its a red jersey, it does look a little more bullseye-ish than other colors would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually find these easier to take than their new jerseys (though I'll never be in the market for a practice jersey...just not my thing). If they were black, they'd look less "Target-like". Almost has a soccer-like feel to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
