Adidas Bruins uniforms

[Chevalier du Clavier]

CCM makes too much sense, would be sad for nike to take it their designs suck

Especially since they supply the CHL. Bauer and Underarmour make a lot of sense, too. I'd prefer a company with deep hockey roots like CCM or Bauer.

Fix the damn collars.

They’re hideous.

Too bad a company like CCM or Bauer can’t bid on this.

 

[ON3M4N]

Gross. Maybe it's just me, but I find the quality of their stuff to be cheaply made.

 

[Patdud]

Sigh

 

[JRull86]

But why? Fanatics SUCKS.

The Spirit Airlines of sports apparel

 

[Therick67]

Fanatics is not good.

 

[BMC]

Fanatics is just flat out awful.

I can't wait to hear the players' comments once they have to wear this crap.

 

[Healthy Wrap]

Gross. Maybe it's just me, but I find the quality of their stuff to be cheaply made.

It’s not just you. Everyone hates Fanatics. Their stuff is garbage

 

[Dellstrom]

Worst case scenario. Anything and everything made by Fanatics is overpriced garbage.

Sounds like the same Canadian factory that makes Adidas jerseys will make the Fanatics jerseys until 2026. That's the actual player jerseys, not the "authentic" fan jerseys. Based on my experience with Fanatics I am thinking that I'll be saving a ton of money over the next decade. I refuse to buy anything from Fanatics. Multiple horrible experiences with them. Of all the apparel companies to sign a deal to be the official apparel company of the NHL Fanatics is the one I least wanted. Maybe they will up their game, who knows, but I'm skeptical. For now I am expecting them to continue peddling their overpriced junk. Can[t wait for the first time a player skating up ice has to dodge letters and numbers falling off the jerseys.

I thought CCM would be the best choice. I love their jerseys and other apparel. Great quality stuff. Adidas was fine, but it's annoying that "authentic" jerseys were not actually the ones players wore on the ice. CCM at least sold authentic jerseys that were the ones the players wore.

 

[McGarnagle]

Expect some of this

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

Chinese knock offs are better quality than Fanatics

 

[KrugAvoy]

They'll be plenty of "player to the locker room" for jersey fixes I bet with logos and names falling off them.

I don't expect this deal to effect on ice jerseys, especially for the first two years, as they will be made to the same specs as Adidas. But, that "authentic" line of jerseys sold retail might just fall off the cliff as the Fanatics motto has been to make products cheaper, but sell them for the same price.

But it was an NHL decision back in the Reebok days to not sell the official on-ice jerseys to the public, and that continues to haunt them. I have an "authentic" Reebok and a knock-off from 2010, and the knock-off is much better quality.

I will say that the Adidas "authentics" were pretty darn good though, just hard to find sometimes as I refused to pay for Fanatics "shirtseys"

10 years of Fanatics jerseys? Hold on to those Adidas and Reeboks
