@@Tucker277 If you're implying what the MLSE CEO said has nothing to do with this because its done by fanatics, I'd remind you what team Auston Matthews plays for. He's not an invalid nor a tool, fanatics doesn't make his decisions for him. This fanatics commercials to sell jerseys came out the very next day after the Stanley Cup finals were over, possibly to avoid any criticism of Matthews (and the leafs by extension) not being in the playoffs.

Surprisingly these jerseys are better than the adidas. They’re made in Canada. Fans will be able to buy the authentic canadien jerseys, not the adidas ones that were made in Indonesia
They're still keeping those shit breakaway jerseys with the sticker logos and shit so I have a bit of skepticism as well that they will deliver the mid tier jerseys
@@shawklan27 They'e absolutely gonna keep making cheap jerseys as that a huge percentage of market sales and still fanatics bread and butter. But that said, I think they are gonna also sell top notch authentics, as they are seeing theres a market opportunity in light of recent pro jersey controversies. I think Fanatics is gonna go all out to impress fans with there first officially licensed professional jerseys. This is beyond just NHL for Fanatics, this is a showcasing to all the pro leagues of what exactly Fanatics is capable of producing under there own manufacturing/production control.
The Premium is equivalent to the adidas made in indonesia, the top version you can buy now. The Authentic Pro is the exact same version they wear in games and is Made in Canada, which adidas and reebok did not offer to the public. They actually look really nice, are made in the same factory, are made with the same materials (other than the new holographic NHL badge and the shoulder panel texture swap), and have improvements on the adidas versions already like the reinforced elbows. I'm really not sure why everyone's assuming they were going to outfit teams with the heat transfer Breakaway jerseys in a professional contact sport. If anyone actually thought that they're pretty stupid. And before you mention MLB, Fanatics was only contracted to make them to the exact specs that Nike gave them. With the NHL they have control of the full end-to-end process.
It’ll only be a matter of time until Made in Canada is longer a thing. Why make jerseys there with large overheads when they can be made much cheaper in Asia. That’s the Fanatics way. Give it maybe 2-3 years and on ice will be made in Vietnam like the breakaways are
@@FamilyGuyRoks6 No need to shill for Fanatics... its okay to admit they had a substantial part in botching the mlb jersey's... hopefully they learned their lesson.
@@de-fault_de-fault Ok but, if you (Fanatics) do a job exactly how your boss (Nike) wants it but notice something is wrong, don't you tell your boss? A bad product makes everyone look bad.
ngl fanatics gonna get me on board with this kind of stuff being accountable for quality it seems. Willing to show off the best jerseys of all time in HD from other manufacturers in their video! this is AWESOME
Awesome vid...my mom was/is a seamstress...she used to fix [sew] up my sweaters/equipment when I played [many moons ago]...didn't really appreciate it then...just wanted to go play...but I have more appreciation now...Glad to see AM giving respect to someone who sews up his and other NHL'rs sweaters ..well done. ❤ 😂 🎉 😊
The dept and lettering really makes it stand out. Hopefully the quality is on par. If the quality's there, i have no doubt this jersey will end in fans collection.
I really hope that the on-ice jerseys are of good quality. I'm sure every hockey fan knows fanatics doesn't have the best reputation at this point, but actually manufacturing the teams' on-ice jerseys are a huge way to redeem themselves for many fans if they turn out to be good. I'm going to wait until other people buy them and review them before I purchase one for myself, but I have high hopes fanatics pulls through with these.
So it's the same company making them as they have for 60 years, just a different makers mark. So fanatics is paying for a makers mark only, not actually manufacturing the uniforms.
Fanatics has 4 tiers of uniforms. Authentic Pros - NHL game sweaters, first time being sold to fans in years, manufactured by SP Apparel in Quebec Premium - "High end", manufactured by Fanatics Breakaway - The sweaters Fanatics have been selling for years Practice - Practice sweaters, first time being sold to fans in years
This is how manufacturing usually works to be fair. They subcontract out the actual making of the products to different company/companies and just tell them how to make it and put the logo when it's done lol
Saw a Fanatics Pro Jersey today... ...I'm not super impressed yet. Adidas and Reebok definitely had better quality. But I'm optimistic because it can only go up from here
man , these comments are so brutal. like maybe give them a chance. the MLB Nike thing has little to do with the NHL. i would give those Fanatics pro jerseys a first chance in September. hope that thing about being able to buy the actual player on-ice version is the truth! better than Adidas .... oh and those dimples on the shoulders - glad they are gone ! 👍 this is a well made clip with a lot of craft and care , hope that is a good luck charm! 👍
If this unnamed lady says she had a hand in making all those jerseys, maybe we shouldn't be as worried. Perhaps the staff that made NHL jerseys just move to Fanatics
Jerseys felt like they were made of a higher quality back when reebok was doing them. I’ve ordered quite a few jerseys through ShopNhl over the years. But my only two adidas ones that I own, I honestly hardly wear either of them because they just feel so generic and cheaply made. A quick horror story I thought I’d share. I ordered an Adidas Jersey last year that I had to wait almost two months for. Was never made aware of any type of back order or factory delay. I felt like my order just got lost and forgotten about, plain and simple. When I would call customer service to complain about the prolonged waiting period, I noticed that their customer service support was through fanatics already. When I asked where they are located, I discover it was a call center located in the Philippines. I spoke with multiple agents on multiple occasions and I could just tell by their tone and verbiage that their customer support is completely scripted word for word. The whole ordeal was just upsetting. When I got the Jersey I immediately felt buyers remorse. This did not feel like or look like a $300 jersey. I hope this isn’t a sign of what to regularly expect from Fanatics.
Many people will agree their money is better spent buying a Chinese knockoff. It'll definitely last longer than anything produced by Fanatics, which isn't saying much.
I hate Fanatics but I’m happy it looks like the jersey quality will be staying the same as Adidas for a little while, minus the shoulder material but that was always a unique design choice by Adidas
Let's face it, if Fanatics can't make quality MLB uniforms (and the MLB has a lot more money and weight than the NHL), they won't make good uniforms for the NHL either. Its just guaranteed across the board, they are not here for quality.
You mean Kane can play his 1,000th game over again? The jersey is what he wore in that game, you can't replace it since the game can't be played again. What's more worrying is why *she* is not wearing gloves at 2:40
@@RIUUI007 Exactly. You speak of a jersey that was worn and tied to particular memories making it a 'sporting' artifact. Matthews hasn't done anything special with that brand spanking new jersey. So why the gloves?
@@HandShakeLineRespect Nah, I'm just saying I'd outbid you for the jersey Matthews will be wearing when he wins the cup, but I wouldn't pay more than retail price for that brand new jersey.
The on ice adidas jerseys were made in Canada in the same factory that made the Reebok jerseys and in the same factory that is currently producing the Fanatics on ice jerseys
Good God. What cringe this entire video is. Fanatics is trash, that makes trash, and paying someone to say good things about your garbage "products", doesn't change that fact.
the same factory that made the adidas jerseys is manufacturing these with the exact same materials minus the pointless shoulder dimples. Fanatics is only working on branding and design. Honestly, this is a win because adidas jerseys are going to be going on clearance so you can get the same exact fabric, just with a different logo for cheap until september. One of the quickest google searches ever could have told you this info. And if you're complaining about the products fans can buy, well I have no sympathy for someone that can't look up wholesale jersey vendors and decides to impulse buy a $300 jersey at the arena or Dicks.
Fans bitching over fanatics quality like they haven’t been making the replica nhl jerseys for years before adidas. The problem is their shitty jock tags
Auston needs to spend less time with Justin and more time with this woman. What a keeper. Can't wait for another barn burner of a season then another fruitless offseason. At least they'll lose while looking good doing it.
He smiled because he didn’t see the milk on the jersey
Dude you almost made me spit out my drink from laughing too hard lol
Playoffs are over - no more Milk Carton profiles needed
Right, because that comes later when he's with his boyfriend Mitch.They'll get plenty of milk on it.

@IndianHabsFan Yuck!
Fanatics got rid of the dotted portion near the collar/shoulder. In my opinion added to the jersey.
The dreaded dri-weave maxi pad shoulders are GONE! Thats an improvement already
That was proprietary Adidas tech
Turns out that wasn't the final form of his jersey. That A is now a C!
Would of been cool Doing somthing like this but with the C on it; Mayeb JT handing it to him and his team mates come out
Matthews is going to want a matching purse
he has it already, its in the closet
Finally pulled the trigger on a Hockey Authentic jersey, I don't regret it one bit after seeing how crappy new unis look
Matthews should’ve played for his country at the Worlds.
Thought they were gonna make him captain
