NEW WINGS JERSEY!

and is it just me or is the wheel not so round and more of an oval?

I'm pretty sure that's just because of the way the fabric's wrinkled. Same with the tip of the wing.

that tag in the bottom right corner is so ugly. it should not be in the front

If tie-up sweaters were part of the Wings history, I'd be all for it. Since they are not, I'm not.

Very simple, nothing extravagant. I think they're nice.

i have always wanted a wings tie up neck.

But on another note looks like the prices for the authentic new wings jersey is going to be around $319.99 because the flames just posted their online order form and thats what they have listed. Mind you its in Canadian but i don't think its that different anymore. Oh and if you want that personalized just throw another 89.99 on to that.

S&H : $7.00CD

Customizing w/ name : $89.99CD

Jersey without *** Tag in front : $319.99CD

Using you previous Jerseys : PRICELESS!

They look pretty much the same but the red looks alot lighter then in the past mixed emotions at least they did not change the logo

The road jersey's v-neck really bothers me.

*sigh*

Goulet! likes 'em standing still. Even the pictures of the new jerseys are 11.3% faster versus the old jerseys. Goulet! thinks they had to round out the wing portion of the Winged Wheel in order to acheive the aerodynamic efficiency targets. Makes 'em slicker. The doppler effect is going to be amazing during game play. Drafting is also going to become much more prevalent.

The road jersey's v-neck really bothers me.

*sigh*

Think of them as aelerons. A slight turn of the upper body is going to allow these guys turn on a dime. These new jerseys would have allowed Larry Murphy to make Stu Grimson look like Pavel Datsyuk out there.

But really, whoever proposed the collar modification should be shot in the leg.

The letters going on the right side is kind of strange, but I'd rather have the same jersey with relocated letters than a change so I'm happy with how Mr. Ilitch kept the tradition alive.

[TheCaptain19 49]

does anyone else think players are just going to start wearing larger sizes than normal?

[Yzermania19 1]

I am just so freaking happy that the changes are minimal. When you think of the disaster it could have been, with vertical piping and striping, adding another color, putting numbers on the front (I have mentioned how much I hate that, right? ), it is such a relief to see the good old Winged Wheel looking much as it has for lo these many years. Even switching the C and the A to the right side is no big deal to me.

*breathes huge sigh of relief*

Nothings stopping them... unless they have to get Measured before every game and then you can ask for a measurement during the game for say, "wearing of a illegal jersey"

However, the larger jersey will give the opponents a larger tappered back side to hold on to... its a catch 22.

#96 Holmstrom.... 2 mins for wearing a size jersey which doesn't match his measurements... I can see it now.

[zata40 3]

Me thinks so...Many of these guys in past years had their jerseys "tailored" to their liking - many liked the loose feeling that a "proper" hockey jersey has to offer...These new slimmer/trimmer jerseys are silly IMHO - players will order larger jerseys & have them tailored to fit the way they want them to...Gotta add that the collar/v-neck is rather ugly :nonono:

Better stock-up on whats left of the older style.

i'v got a good wed site for that. nice and cheap personalized jerseys

That is a very nice place, I have done tons of business with them in the past. also, FanaticU.com . I am just waiting for the $105 to drop some more.... I love how Kuznetsov is still at $105

[Guest jaytan]

I wonder how the tighter jerseys will effect fighting. It seems like it would be tougher to do a good old-fashioned hockey fight in the new form-fitting jerseys that they wanted to link to the pants.

Plus, I think it's odd that we still haven't seen any pictures of the new Wings jerseys from the side. Everyone knows that the curve in the shoulder is the most important part.

Wings jersey, Back and side

Appears to be the new edge jersey...

Fighting? Are you sure you're on the right forum?

[lfd250 1]

Guys, I'm not sure the tag in the corner is there for good. Unless it would cause a hole, cut it off. The game jerseys don't have them.

[OsGOD 3]

I am sure it will leave some distortion on the jersey if you cut it off though. I highly doubt they placed it on the jersey with the thought of fans wanting to remove it easily in their mind.

Those tags on the front will probably only be on the Replica RBK Edge Jerseys. Remember 2 years ago when we had CCM Home "White Jersyes" and Koho Away "Red Jerseys" the replicas had a Koho logo on the very end of the sleeve. By the way does anyone know if our home jerseys will still be the red ones this year? I thought i heard a rumor that it was being switched back
