Never_Retire_Steve 35 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 So the site with the winter classic jerseys is a different site than the OP right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Made in Kariya 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 SWEET! This site added Datsyuk and Kane Winter Classic jerseys on 12-5-08. Who wants to set up a group buy? Don't know if the price will be the same as originally quoted. Hey guys, I meant to follow up that I did end up buying a regular red Zetterberg jersey from this guy. Got it real fast and it is pretty sweet. I live in the middle of nowhere so I don't have a place to compare to the real deal. Seems to me that maybe these are "seconds" that don't pass quality control. I'm pretty pleased for the 60 bones I laid out as opposed to 200-300. I'll try to post pics this week if I can.

I guess we all want to see before placing the order. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake62 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 I got an email from them. The Red Wings Winter Classic jersy is currently in production, but they say they will have them ready to ship by this Thursday. The jersey is available in #'s 5, 13, 40 and 81. Sizes available are 48, 50, 52 and 54. The price is the same. $40.00 each if paid by Western Union and $45.00 each if paid by paypal, based on an order of 6 or more. They will also do single orders with 1 or 2 jerseys for $60.00 each. All of the prices include shipping to a single address. I did some quick research and found that even if we wanted to do a group thing, the paypal fees for the person collecting the money and then the shipping and insurance to send them out to everyone would bring the price right back up to $58.40. It would be much less of a hassle to order them individually. Now it's decision time...What number shall I choose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCaptain19 49 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 is that size 48 like a medium? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharomyga 6 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 size 48 is XL, well at least it says on my Mitchell and Ness jersey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AusWing13 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 size 48 is XL, well at least it says on my Mitchell and Ness jersey I got a cheap jersey from ebay (my first) that was similar to the ones in the pics posted from this site which was a 48 and it was about the same size as a Medium Rbk Premier, so i would think these replicas might be the same.

TheCaptain19 49 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 yeah i want as close to a medium as i can get. so is that 52? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZETTERBERGPWN 2 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 yeah i want as close to a medium as i can get. so is that 52? i have a chelios jersey and one with my name on it and they are 52 which is large Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Made in Kariya 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 is that size 48 like a medium? I bought the 50. I'm 5"10" 155 lbs. and I usually buy large t-shirts. Jersey fits great. My only complaint is it is a little long in the sleeves. I used the sizing chart from the NHL shop website as a guide. I'll hopefully get some pics tonight and post tomorrow.

Jake62 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Jack sent me an email saying he has #5's and #40's in. The others will be in by the end of the week. He included a pic of a finished #5. Looks great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake62 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 I just realised that they put the number on the sleeve, but I don't believe they are doing that on the authentics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redwings1973 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Those look great for a knock-off.....the red border color around the "D" looks slightly different from the red on the actual jersey, but I still like it. Def. worth the $60 or so......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Made in Kariya 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Here are the pics I took. I hope they come out ok as I'm not very web savvy. The last pic I'm trying to show that you can just see some of the black thread come through from stitching on the tag inside. You might find a couple of loose threads...nothing major on mine. I'm very happy. To give you an idea, I sent payment 11/22 and received the jersey 12/1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redwings1973 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2008 I just ordered a Lidstrom Winter Classic jersey from jerseys-nhl.com.....the fellas name is "Jack" and he's been very responsive to emails. He said he had #5 and #40 ready to go and #13 and #81 will be ready this weekend. Sent me the same Lidstrom jersey pic from the earlier post. Only asked for a total of $55 (shipping included) through PayPal..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casey 145 Report post Posted December 13, 2008 no the authentics dont have the numbers on the sleeve It shouldn't be too difficult to take a thread puller and remove the sleeve numbers, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OsGOD 3 Report post Posted December 13, 2008 It shouldn't be too difficult to take a thread puller and remove the sleeve numbers, though. depends on if they use the placement glue on the numbers... My AO jersey from them seems to smell like they use the glue as well as stitch it. Which while it would be a cake walk to take the thread out... the jersey would still be compromised with the outline of the numbers. I would say its damn cheap... keep them on there!

Datsyerberger 279 Report post Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) Well, the jersey I ordered for my dad's birthday finally got in. Heh, his birthday was the 17th of Sept, I ordered it on the 15th figuring it would take a couple weeks and that would be okay Well, after a long fiasco with lightinthebox I finally got my money refunded there, and promptly ordered from one of the people on dhgate... $50, free shipping with EMS, 3-4 days packaging, 5-8 days shipping. Sure enough, it was shipped by the Saturday of the week I ordered it, and didn't take but a week to get here. Got him a Lidstrom. Almost got him a Datsyuk, but he got me a Yzerman a few years ago so I figured I'd reciprocate with an instant hall of fame Wings captain as well. It's freakin' sweet. Quality actually seems a little higher than my authentic Yzerman CCM.. very durable. Stitching is well done, all numbers and what not stitched on. Only a small handful of loose threads I've noticed that can be easily taken care of. The Winged Wheel seems slightly off, but that was expected.. funny thing is, I don't think I would ever notice that it was off if I didn't expect it to be. The red might just be a slightly more of an orange tint than the real deal.. I won't even be able to tell 'til I can compare it to my CCM, but it's close. It also has the fight strap, with velcro + button. My CCM doesn't have the fight strap Got him a size 54, and had one of my coworkers close in size to my dad try it on.. its about equivalent to an XXL, so that's a good fit. I suppose that makes the sizing with these particular replicas 52-54 = ~XXL, 50-52 = ~XL, 48-50 ~L and 46-48 = ~M. Oh, came with all the RBK/NHL tags too, by the way. If I didn't know better, I'd think I just got the real thing. For a quick reference, my dad is the net admin at a textile mill, though he worked in the actual plant before he became a computer guy.. I worked there on and off for a couple years as well, doing some digital printing. That said, we both have a decent eye for good fabric, so if anyone was interested in the opinion of someone with experience in such *shrug* Well, it certainly gets my seal of approval. I'm quite impressed. PM me if you want to order from the same guy I did, I'll PM you his dhgate user name. He carries Lids, Dats and Z. He responded to all of my messages and questions quite promptly and even asked some of his own to make sure I was getting what I wanted. His english is a little broken but intelligible, and his customer service gets high marks from me. I'll post pictures when I have a camera on hand. Edit: No cup patch, by the way, but it wasn't supposed to have one. My dad and I both thought it looked really goofy next to the C. Besides, there's not enough room for 4 (5? ) cup patches on there.

Jake62 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2008 Ho, Ho, Ho! Christmas came early! This was at my doorstep this afternoon and I just ordered it last Wednesday night. I would say the material is the same quality as the jersey from lightinthebox, but the overall quality is better. I love this jersey, but might consider ordering another in a size 50 and selling this on on ebay (they are selling for $135 over there). Seems just a bit big on me.

Casey 145 Report post Posted December 18, 2008 Wonder why they both put the number on the sleeve for the WInter Classic. It's not supposed to be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
let the octopi fly 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2008 i know the numbers on the sleeves don't belong there but in my opinion they look good there just preference i guess. anyways where are you guys getting these winter classic jerseys from? i am interested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
