No jersey collection is complete without the sweet stadium series jersey with the giant numbers for the vision impaired!

That is one heck of a closet. Well done, sir.

Thanks!

why you selling?

 

[Reclamation Project]

Never forget.

Never forget.

He should flip that 8 on its side and make it the infinity symbol - he never gets off the ice (or at least we don't want him to).

I can't see the numbers!

 

[Captain Mittens*]

I can't see the numbers!

Seriously.
RP can you make them 50% bigger?

 

[Reclamation Project]

 

[Choralone]

Yes - jerseys should have tails! Maybe ruffles and cummerbunds, too.

 

[YP44]

Never forget.

Just horawful.
The only thing worse than the huge number on the back is the stretched number on the arms.

I'll assume if you own one of those stadium series jerseys you also own acid washed jeans, a puffy pirate shirt and Crocs.

It would be one of few jerseys I would own and not want a number on the back.
I wonder if it will turn into a hot item to own like the burger king jersey

Jay Miller

1991-1992 Jay Miller gameworn Kings home jersey – NHL 75th anniv. patch, Kings 25th anniv. patch, customized sleeves (re-sewn much tighter full length with black thread making it much tougher to grab and control his arms during fights) and very good wear – 10+ repairs to the sleeves and heavy pilling throughout –

that's awesome. As you mostly collect enforcer stuff, do alot of guys customize their jerseys like this?

Thanks -

Many enforcers have customizations - the below is based on what is included in the jerseys I own for these fighters -

Jared Boll has his sleeves sewn tighter as well, but just the last 9 inches or so at the end of the sleeves

Tie Domi - his sleeves were shortened and then sewn tighter

Joey Kocur, Luke Richardson, Ryan Vandenbussche, Dave Brown, Matt Johnson & Ronnie Stern all had their sleeves shortened.

Marty McSorley had his sleeves customized with 3" wide full length spandex inserts added to them to they'd stretch if someone tried to tie up his arms during a fight.

Francois Leroux also had material inserts added to his sleeves

Dave Karpa had an insert added only to his right sleeve (his main punching arm)

Mike Peluso, Dan Kordic and Josh Gratton just cut the ends of their sleeves to make the openings wider

Fighters also customize their fight straps - too many to list here, both past and present - please check my enforcers thread on this site to see many of what I'm noting below -
Shortening the fight strap (sewing it over itself once or twice) to reduce how far it will stretch
Removing them and adding a skate lace instead (less give)
Adding a 2nd fight strap to the front of the jersey (either traditional fight strap, sewn on skate lace or a skate lace wrapped around a coin) to keep it from being pulled up from the front
Rob Ray used a custom clip and loop fight strap system that Eric Boulton also copied when he was a Sabre

2005-2006 George Parros Kings gameworn home jersey, Set 3 – light wear

Light wear on a Kings Game worn Parros goes without saying. hahah. Not sure on if there would be any other type of game worn Parros jersey.

Sweet jersey though. Love the whole set that relate to this one

Thanks - his Set 2 home jersey has some decent fight damage to it - neck torn down to the crest and then repaired - its up for sale on FB right now.

Not much in the way of stick marks or board burn damage to any Parros I've seen (to your point), but have seen some with decent fight abuse.........

Their yellow+purple 'crown' jerseys are real beauties. Those jerseys would be 1 of the best in the league imo If they were their mains.
