Thankfully the Made in Canada jerseys will be made available, finally.
Looks like they’re stopping size XS Breakaway jersey which sucks for us smaller folks. They fit perfectly before and smalls were way too baggy so that’s so unfortunate to see.
Wish quebec city got their team back
Each jersey tier should be dropped by at least $30. dollars, the breakaway should be no more than $90. I'm willing to give fanatics the benefit of a doubt, because the Nike are to blame for the MLB uniforms, the only thing is should I buy earlier as the merchandise will be close to today, or do I wait and let fanatics do something crazy to the uniforms when they actually design the jerseys
As a pro jersey collector for the past 30 years, this is awesome news. I was extremely disappointed with Adidas and their made in Indonesia "authentic pro" jerseys that they came out with a few years ago. Glad they got sued for passing off replica jerseys as the real ones that players wore. I never did buy one. I will definitely buy a real one from Fanatics for $425US. Seems steep, but it's better than paying over $1000US for a game worn jersey from Meigray.
I love Hockey Jerseys I think they are the best in all of sports and I have Jerseys from half of the league , I just want them to be good quality, fairly priced (or atleast on sale alot) and comfortable. I live in nyc when the change from reebok to addias happened the nhl store that used to be on 5th avenue had a massive sell off and I got most of my Jersey collection from that time, I really want a similar thing to happen when the new changeover starts.
This is exactly the information I was waiting for! Thank you and I can’t wait for more info!
Of course mlb would say that, many mlb owners invest in fanatics
That's cool they're selling the actual authentic jerseys in Canada and you can buy the practice Jerseys
Great video. Thank you for the updates. Can't wait to get my hands on the MIC jersey. Hopefully they look good.
man i just want to see the reaction to the expansion being atlanta and arizona.
i guess dollars and change for a knockoff quality jersey is ok…
When will the Anaheim Ducks finally go full retro and get rid of those horrendous jerseys??
Not tough to take – never buying their shit ever.
one thing I liked abut those fanatic jerseys was they were comfortable to wear.
Hear me out, I have a NJ devils breakaway fanatic jersey. I also have their MIC.
but I like how the fanatic breakaway fit me perfectly with my hoodie underneath and tbh I will wear fit casually in public,
So thats what thing I will like about fanatics breakaway is I get to work them as a sweater in public.
When it comes to gameday at the arenas, I will wear a jersey.
Goalie Cut collectors can now rejoice.
To be perfectly Honest, if its $400 mark for the MIC and exact style like gamer jerseys, I will buy it.
But Iill have to see what thee quality will actually be like
wish Adidas would have Done this already where it was accessible for us to buy instead of having to buy from marketplace
Amazing video as always. My signed Fanatics jersey can be worth something now.
At first Fanatics bought companies but let them do their thing . The Fanatics hate starts when they really got involved.
They also bought Lids and completly ruined the store and online buying. I havent bought a hat since they purchased Lids because i cant afford $60-70 bucks for a legit hat
Are you high? Quality and Fanatics don't go together. Their products are trash
It sounds great, and I am sure it will be for the next few seasons, but in 4-5 seasons, much like the mlb, I'm afraid that they may begin to cut corners in quality. What I am trying to say is that I will believe it when I see it.
MLB called out Nike and are very quiet on Fanatics because MLB have invested in Fanatics on several capital funding rounds. You’re not going to publicly slam your investment. Shirts that peel away after one wash you think the league would have an issue with that is unless you own part of the company making those garbage items
At the end of the day Fanatics can’t and shouldn’t be trusted. They rip off fans. They’re all about the cheapest made items at the highest sale price to the consumer. Look at the MLB issues with their on field products, it’ll on be a matter of time before players names are screen printed on all jerseys to maximise the profit to Fanatics. Even if they bring out something amazing people should avoid them because of how horrible of a company they are. They own sports betting companies for the sole reason to take as much money as they can from sports fans.
This is double the price I paid for seasons tickets to the canucks games in the late 70s. Insane
The last jersey I bought was $400 and it was a team issued and game worn NHL jersey of one of my favorite players. I am not going to pay $400 for one of these junk jerseys from Fanatics
Happy to see the MIC authentics will become available to the public next season – not really crazy on the price point it will limit the amount I would buy thru the season – but happy to see them back
Boycotting this horrible company for the rest of my life. Plenty of good jerseys out there for me to collect
(Talking about F*natics not Icethetics – you guys do awesome work)
I’m 50/50 on fanatics
So this means they CAN manufacture good stuff, but they choose not to for stupid reasons
Icethetics, what’s going on with hats lately, seems like hats across the market have been sucking as of late.
Fanatics would be smart to only put fight straps on the on-ice authentic tiers of their jerseys
Fanatics should be fine working with the Adidas template, it's when they have to come up with their own design in a few years that's got me worried.
Very well said, this definitely makes me a little more excited to see what Fanatics has in store.
I am still a little skeptical of the quality of all these jersey types because I am an MLB fan as well and those jerseys have me scared.
Hopefully they have learned from the mistakes with the MLB jerseys, and the new CEO will make quality a top priority.
Thank you for this breakdown, Chris. I'll be waiting for a 30% off sale, but getting an on-ice jersey in the size 40's is so clutch. Interested to see if/how the templates change for 24-25, but hopefully we'll see them at the last in-person draft in June. Cheers.
This definitely has me a lot more cautiously optimistic. And actually has me hopeful, I like to collect jerseys but ill be sticking to that middle level for most, however getting a MiC jersey for when Michkov comes over is exciting
i think my only other concern with fanatics themselves is the fact that so many mlb teams seem to be missing sets of jerseys. nhl teams are supposed to be all fanatics after july 1sts and i'm not holding my breath LOL

A new name on the Salt Lake City squad associated with abdominal snow man or yetis would be a fun good fit with all the mouantins and snow the state receives
