So happy I finished my collection of Adidas authentics before the Fanatics takeover. You inspired me to collect one authentic of all 32 teams and I achieved it for a great price. Tips, Ebay after players get traded. I got a probably 10/32 jerseys under $50 authentic with tags from traded players. Probably done for now outside of Sabres jerseys because they’re my team
An excellent breakdown from suppliers to wholesalers to vintage specialists. Especially loved the example of the close Pens WC fakes; they're everywhere. Much respect from one Starter Fashion jersey collector to another!
It's so funny when people say "I don't care" about videos like these. I don't follow other teams than Tampa and sometimes Seattle. Guess which game review videos I don't watch lol. If I don't want a video, I don't watch it. For those of us who LIKE jersey videos, this is cool.
I got myself a 2005 CCM Crosby black home jersey off of eBay for $50 which was in amazing condition and looked brand new. I absolutely love it this was the design the penguins had when I was a kid I couldn't be happier. I didn't know I could find a class jersey like that on eBay til I saw your videos so thank you!!! :)
I enjoy the jersey videos, i wouldn't know about a lot of the jerseys without them. Can't afford such a collection myself, but i've been inspired to get one jeresy for each team. Great to see whats in your collection, helps me decide what to look for.
If the Nordiques rebranded to the husky jersey and stuck around, I think they'd be my #2 team on jersey alone. That logo design rules, and the colours are great too.
Love the jersey videos. Keep then coming! I have been saving money since last year for when they put the Adidas stock on sale. No way I risk it with Fanatics😂
I can say I bought an Islanders fisherman jersey when it came out, and I still have it today. Not in the greatest condition since I wore it while playing goal in street hockey, but that’s one I would never get rid of.
I have both the home & away Fisherman jerseys, purchased when they first came out. I loved the jersey design, but find the logo goofy. I would have loved to have gotten the version with the original Islanders logo, but I never saw it for sale anywhere.
No Koho? I’ve dealt with quite a few of who you mention here. Ben H, Cool Hockey etc. All very good businesses (despite what some may say), and I’ll keep up with them as long as they carry what matters to me. And like you, I never paid full price. You have to be smart about this when playing the collector game. 😊 Fanatics will never be that. Sure…they’ll use the same Adidas template for probably the first year, but that will fade quickly and fans will either deal with it, or stop buying them. I’ll be in the latter category. Great video as always, Shannon. You’re truly the king of hockey.
saw on another channel there was a leak of a fanatics catalogue...apparently they will have the on ice jerseys for $425 USD, the premium jersey for $180 US and then the breakaway jersey (which is basically the current fanatics) for $135 US
If it's 425$ with a nameplate, that's honestly not terrible. I live in the Bay Area, California, I used to get my authentic Reebok's from HockeyX (sadly closed during covid) and they were 299$ blank, plus 59$ for a name/number. With as bad as inflation is here. 425 isn't much more then 360.
GOOD VIDEO. A few things before I get into the hockey side of this: 1) I thought Adidas made great NBA jerseys, 2) Nike has done the multiple tiers of NFL jerseys, 3) if the players are wearing brand "X", if I but a jersey I want brand "X". I really have to wonder what is up with Adidas though, they dipped on the NBA contract, they have now dipped on the NHL contract, and in some cases, they are operating shady with US universities on their apparel deals too. I don't do knockoffs. I sale hunt and very rarely buy retail straight up. But I remember that tiered Reebok era and and that is kind of what Nike is doing with the NFL and NBA. An entry level screen print jersey, a mid-tier stitch hybrid, and then an on-field/court version. What I dislike about what Nike is doing now, at least with the NFL jerseys, is that mid-tier used to be stitch, just the jersey wasn't the same--it was their normal jersey, whereas the most expensive one was the materials used for the on-field one. At that top price point, those are too expensive for me to buy, but I have found that lower-tier Reebok and the Adidas for NHL jerseys to meet my price point needs for quality. The Fanatics stuff just isn't the quality I'd spend on, and the price difference is worth it to have the brand the players wear. I am very tempted to save up some major cash to get get any Adidas jerseys before they're gone and my only option is Fanatics, but their branded apparel leaves a lot to be desired.
I have a Lokomotiv jersey from the KHL, bought it a few years ago and it was second hand / a few years old at rhe time. It is fully sublimated, logos, ads, and all. I found that interesting.
I remember seeing those blue starter flyers jerseys 25 years ago in department stores around Philly and thinking; who would ever buy that. Surprised you didn’t talk about Koho in this video.
I am definitely buying an Adidas Kraken jersey (hopefully it will be discounted) before they stop being sold because there is no way I am buying a Fanatics one, especially given all the problems in baseball currently with Fanatics made jerseys. When it comes to Adidas pulling out of the NHL contract, another reason why they are pulling out is because Adidas realizes that they can make a higher profit (at least in North America) off of three things: all soccer related products (especially with the 2026 World Cup being held in North America of which Adidas is a major sponsor), endorsement deals with US colleges & Adidas Originals products like the Superstar shoes.
So in 1989 I bought a signed Bobby Hull Jersey at the Winnipeg Arena, on the night they retired his number. They sold 40 signed jerseys at $40 a pop. It's the white WHA one, which is now their white heritage. Now I'm thinking what the heck would it have been called in 1989, retro? Replica?Nobody was using the term that I remember back then. Embroidered crest with iron or pressed number,name and CCM logo. All I know is you'll never find a signed jersey today for $40, even adjusted for inflation 😂
The fakes usually have a shiny black inner neckline. Sloppy stitching. And the materials in the logo, names, and numbers is poor quality. And the shield is wrong.
I have a recommendation - I've bought four jerseys through Rebound Jerseys in the last week. Ben H is on there and sometimes he has better prices there rather than on eBay. I plan to keep scrubbing through there and finding others to add to my collection.
For the Nordiques husky jersey, supposedly there are officials who were handed over to members of the press during a press conference to announce the branding change.
They did recently post their catalog for the stores and from the Vids I saw they have 3 tiers and the practice jerseys/ throwbacks. Outside the MiC's it looks like everything is similarly priced.
Whatever the direction jerseys go, I'm happy I have mine. I bought two bruins jerseys in my life so far. bruins men in black and the winter classic 2016 one (starting to see a pattern, eh? love black jerseys.)
I'm glad you posted this as recently I've been looking onto a specific type of repair and I don't know the names of the materials or if they're available. I have a couple of Gretzky Jerseys that belonged to my sister and she didn't like that the crests and the numbers were stiff as she wore them as PJ shirts , so she went in and cut out all of the backing material behind the logos and numbers , now theyre wrinkling .. I'm wondering if that particular material is available and if anyone might know how to go about doing this fix?
Funny you mention team stores, for the Rangers, their store does offer some miscellaneous items that i may not see in fanatics. The only down side about the msg online store is that sometimes price on higher end like the Stadium Series jersey being 50 dollars more expensive than fanatics website.
I’ve wanted that unused Nords logo with the husky and fleur shoulder patch for some time now but with Sakic on the back and the maroon/white original Avs color scheme. Just one of those things that would be fun to see put together, wear it to a game or two and see who comments on it
@@fantasticvoyage262 it’s not supposed to be accurate colors lol it’s taking a little of the old and new and blending together. Transition from one moniker to another in the same franchise. Symbolism and all that jazz
@@fantasticvoyage262 Who cares if the colors aren't accurate? They never wore those jerseys or used that logo. If someone wants to spend their money on a jersey that's slightly off, what's the big deal?
i sometimes click on a vidja i might not like. cuz i might have changed my mind about something . i only collect habs and expos things . not to look at ,but to use everyday . i did collect comics and video games .that if i still had today would be worth hundreds of thousands . so i understand the value of collecting . wish i still had my book collection too . but floods can sometimes put the kiabosh on collecting . water seems to have an adverse effect on that . kitchen fires as well . thats why im always going on about how much insurance you have and the coverage . when i respond to one of your vidjas on this subject :P gohabsgo
From what I have heard so far is the throwback jerseys are just gonna be those low quality material with no embroidered logos just those breakaway style logos or the single layer printed vinyl garbage if fanatics would do the throwback vintage line like CCM made them or even like the Adidas team classics I think they'd fly off the shelves
Baseball and basketball jerseys are shit, limited players in limited sizes. Havent seen a giants city connect in 3X, can only find MLB authentics generally in 52, except sometimes certain players will be 56
I buy the odd fake jersey now and then if it's a jersey I really want and there's no other way to get it. More than likely I'm the only one who knows it's a fake and there's no jersey police who will arrest me for wearing one. One thing I'm able to do is buy blank jerseys of the Blue Jackets and take them to the team store and have them customized. By doing this i can make a $300 jersey a $125 jersey.
I have been more and more (dumping and) changing in to collecting personal significance over quantity. That way new jersey(s) feel that much (dominic) m(o)ore special to me. Plus they started to invade lots of (Jaroslav) space(k)
I've gotten into getting reebok MiC based practice jerseys of late... doesn't have to be a main key player as much as just to enjoy a high quality look into the collection (and save a few $$ too).
I bought an Islanders fisherman pro when it first came out, then got the old logo pro on the wave jersey the next season and love them. Also got a kachina Coyotes starter pro at a value city store, a long time ago, for $50.
I have plenty of adidas jerseys but got a draisaitl cup final jersey as my first fanatic jersey from the nhl site. It is super nice but I noticed right away. Like my McDavid jersey from a few years back the detail in the stitching just makes me feel better wearing them for games etc.
I saw your comment on his last video and then saw this video and was literally about to go to the last video and message you but I see you already saw it 😂
Fanatics is scum. I went to the All Star game weekend event one year and they advertised players signing autographs. Waited hours in line and then we find out that Fanatics is only allowing players to sign a blank piece of paper.
Over here in Europe, the Fanatics / NHL / Lids triplets are just so dumb. Different level of sale discount, different prices (Lids for example has Shark fin for £143, whereas it is £173 on the other 2) and the NHL one seems to charge fees and import duty which the other 2 do not. So you just have to try to mix and match and find what you want at the cheapest price as at the back end, yep same 2 warehouses in New York state or Utah. Madness!
I can verify that Ben H Sports is a quality seller. You will get an actual jersey at a fair price. Are there cheaper sellers? Yes, but it's a crapshoot whether you get an honest seller or not. Ben will sell you a quality product, and he checks and double checks everything that he sells. As Shannon says, he responds to emails very quickly!
@@fantasticvoyage262 Their building is not that far from the Hockey Hall of Fame. They have a souvenir shop inside the main entrance. (at least it used to be, many years ago. Not sure if it's still there.) I wasn't in their actual filming studio...
I have seen some sublimated NHL jerseys by the name brand off Above Ordinary, made in China but they're really pretty neat with their giant logos and such.
That thumbnail jersey looks better than the Wiki photo of the planned new appearance, but it doesn’t hold a candle to the iconic igloo/stick logo and Fleur-de-lis pattern of Quebec’s original theme. It looks more AHL than NHL.
There was a leak that the Fanatics on ice next season will be $400+ USD. Fanatics will have "Premium" version which is what the current adidas "authentic" are, and a replica.
Since we are talking about kitted jerseys, would love to hear your opinion on customizing vintage jerseys? Have a few that I am definitely going to do it to, but would love to hear your thoughts!
I got a jersey from DH Gate fuly knowing it was not a real one. But honestly, i looked at it next to the authentic i bought from the official NHL store and it was so close you could barely even tell. So unless you really want the real deal, i don't see anything wrong with going the cheaper route. It was only $20 and free shipping.
I’ve dealt with Ben on multiple occasions and I have nothing but good things to say

Jay Leno is a car collector, and he drives all of his cars. So why should you wearing your jersey's be considered a no-no?

Love team stores. Really wish the Wings had one that had an online storefront or was at least open outside of game day.
Great video Shannon!
Holy crap that Nordiques rebrand is fantastic!
It gave me minor league vibes
47Brand also has a good assortment of shirts and hats
Thrift Stores can also be a good place to find jerseys for a decent price.
The only problem is sizing, sometimes jerseys are way too big or way too small
If the nordiques return they should use that wolf logo as an alternate logo, like what the Canucks do with the skate jersey

The infamous Quebec husky wolf jersey. I think the University of Connecticut has that logo now the wolf husky.
The Canes just did that limited edition Chaos jersey last week.
The future of NHL jersey collecting is very, very bleak…
I definitely won't be buying any sublimated jerseys, they don't have the same effect as the embossed if that's the right word, kind of jersey
Since we are talking about kitted jerseys, would love to hear your opinion on customizing vintage jerseys? Have a few that I am definitely going to do it to, but would love to hear your thoughts!
I got a jersey from DH Gate fuly knowing it was not a real one. But honestly, i looked at it next to the authentic i bought from the official NHL store and it was so close you could barely even tell. So unless you really want the real deal, i don't see anything wrong with going the cheaper route. It was only $20 and free shipping.
