The apron jersey trend

[senseimike]

Any of you guys know what the thinking was behind the jersey design feature of a few years ago where a bunch of teams looked like their jersey was an apron?

He’s talking about the Reebok Edge jersey template that had seams along the sides of the torso, that a lot of teams highlighted as piping.

IMO, these designs were hot burning garbage that violated basic principles of what a hockey jersey looks like. I was hoping they would at least age well but they have not.
