I never get my jerseys customized but it's something you want to do correctly or not at all, imo. Like previously mentioned with the Caps many times you can get the exact kits used in the NHL. This is how our store handles things, except we do the actual sewing.

I'm more of a 'collector' of jerseys I guess you could say so the iron on shoulder patches really irk me.

FWIW...from what I believe this is the place that does the Caps on-ice jerseys. They also do the Devils, the ASG jerseys and a variety of others.

Do you know if the kits are manufactured there, or ordered and then done? I've been trying to find out for a while now how many suppliers there are and what teams they are responsible for, it used to be 4-5 different companies.

Penguins 3rds have white and black. There is no blue on the letters and numbers. The jersey is baby blue.

Not too sure to be honest. This might be the guy to ask, as I got the info from him.

The Caps jerseys are done by Cutting Edge Sports in MA. They also do Boston's and I believe San Jose's.

Thanks. For that price I assume that they don't make the actual kit, just do the sewing labor and such.

Is there a difference between a Premier NHLPA

and a Premier Replica

??? (Obviously the second one doesn't have a name, but assuming i got the one from the second link customized, would there be any differences between the jerseys? Why does the first one say NHLPA?)

From the look of things, it looks like the exact same jersey.

Do you guys think that buying an Authentic EDGE Third jersey is worth the investment? Thirds tend to change over time...

Just makes them rarer.
