Whoa you are the first channel I saw that showed these jerseys. Glad they gave option for fans that wanted the same on ice jersey the players wear. Nice work on showing and comparing the jerseys. It looks like fanatics are taking this seriously in making a quality jersey. Hopefully it looks good in the stores.

Some thoughts: 1) We know their track record before - I'll be careful hoping too much, even as a semi-casual fan not in north america. 2) The answers sound A LOT like PR statements, especially the "oh we don't want to make changes for the sake of changing". 3) That last part - don't want to make changes for the sake of changing - show and tell. Just because they say they are not going to go off the walls like the MLB saga, doesn't mean I'll be taking that at face value. Only time will tell if it's just PR or if they are actually true to their word.

I’m willing to bet that these jerseys will actually be pretty damn good the first few years. So they can save face. But then I think they will inevitably cheap out and the quality will drop. Just like what’s happening with the MLB jerseys. So if I’m right it’s probably not a bad idea to get one early.

Very cool that you got to see the Authentic Pro, Brodie. A testament to your hard work, no doubt. This is the jersey that is supposed to look good though, and the fact that it does is encouraging. However, I am disappointed they didn't show the Breakaways or the Premium. Very interested in seeing those, as those are likely going to make up the bulk of what fans ultimately purchase.

Great that they have MiCs available to the public, especially in smaller sizes normal people wear without pads. That's probably the biggest win for the fans. Getting one is tempting, but I'll be passing tbh. I don't want to support the Fanatics monopoly on sports merch at large, nor the NHL's addition of jersey ads as a whole. Not buying en masse would send a message on both, and I've got plenty of jerseys already. If I decide I want one later on I'll deliberately buy it from a second-hand individual seller. Action with your wallet is the only way to get corporations to listen (if sales dip enough). Great video and congrats on the exclusive! It was super informative and well done, Brodie. Cheers.

You not buying one doesn't hurt anyone but you. Fanatics doesn't have a monopoly on anything but replicas. Adidas chose to leave and Fanatics made the best pitch. As long as they keep up with the high quality why should any of us care ? It's not like they are squeezing out small mom and pop places since mom and pops shops have not and will never be allowed to sell authentic unis. In fact the Chinese knockoffs that cheap people buy are literally supporting a foreign economy. Maybe if you could explain exactly why you would buy adidas or Nike etc but not the company who even now is still keeping a cheap intro uni but with improved quality? Now if they come out and they are shit compared to adidas, then that's different because they are the only option but If they are the same or better than I see no reason to boycott them.cheers

@@Bp79-or4kp Fanatics was the only bidder, so they had the best offer by default. No one else was going to come close to their bid bc of their capital and working relationship already in place. I did say "en masse" would have an impact. Individuals rarely have enough power on their own to change anything. Fanatics has horrible quality merchandise (tees, hats, sweaters, etc). Their stuff is so cheaply made and does not last compared to other large companies. The jerseys will be fine on quality, it's literally everything else. And I don't support what they produce, so for me personally it won't be exclusive to jerseys (though that's their high ticket item). Ads on jerseys are fine... if you're in Europe where they don't have commercials for soccer matches. If the NHL wants to make that trade-off, by all means. I'll hold my breath 😅 Otherwise I don't care how tastefully it's done. That's just my opinion, my guy. Thanks for letting me know you don't agree. Have a good Wednesday.

4 tiers is insane, make a pro jersey and super affordable jersey that isnt a scam.

I missed the adidas shoulders the texture gave the design contrast and was something we never saw on nhl jerseys before! Also disappointed columbus didnt rebrand from the outdated home and away just make the Cannon alternate your primary it gives the team more identity and gives an old school feel to the uniforms.

I’m not a CBJ fan, my wife and brother are, but I have said that for years. It’s so lame and cliche. The cannon uni’s are some of the best in the NHL in my opinion. Go Pens!

I'm glad MiC's will finally be available to purchase again but, I have to say... I'm going to miss the dimples. They were unique and gave the jerseys an interesting texture.

After seeing this I am definitely more optimistic about Fanatics involvement with the NHL, time will tell of course but I’m open minded about it

Brodie exclusive.. !!! Tell them to hand you first look of Utah Yeti jerseys...

I work for Fanatics so I seen them first! Although we can't take pictures if we do, we get caught we'll be fired on the spot! They are a lot different, colors pretty phenomenal not going to lie newer jerseys are pretty Sharp seems like the New Jersey's got more brighter the new old jerseys.

Appreciate the update Brodie. Thanks for keeping us in the loop!

I’m buoyed by the fact that they’ve taken over the factory that has been making the jerseys for so long but that doesn’t mean they won’t implement some cost cutting measures. The problem with fanatics is that their products have always been cheap quality wise. When you pay 80-140 bucks for a hoodie and it starts unraveling after the first wash…that’s the problem and it’s a consistent problem with any piece of garment I’ve bought of theirs. T shirts, hats, hoodies…all junk and it’s why I haven’t bought anything of theirs in years. I buy at least a jersey a year for decades and I won’t be buying anything of theirs until I see some long term positive reviews.

Fanatics isn't taking over the factory in Quebec, they're just contracting them to produce on-ice jersey in the same way CCM, Reebok and Adidas did for years. AP Apparel in Quebec is just slapping a Fanatics logo on the back instead of Adidas. Fanatics will only be making the premium, breakaway and practice versions -- which is where I agree, we should be skeptical of their quality control and sizing and material cost-cutting

I appreciate this video. This answers a lot of questions that I had regarding Fanatics taking over NHL jerseys and I am glad that they are looking at what MLB and Nike didn’t do with introducing new jerseys for players and taking the steps to work with players and really not change anything.

extra elbow pad space! i'm happy

Damn, I really liked the shoulder dimples. That's an L, That makes them stand out to me

The CCM sweaters through to the Reeboks had reinforced shoulders and elbows. The CCM Centre Ice sweaters, especially in the Ultrafil fabric are still the best.

this is a great in-depth video... im a little sad the dimples are going but glad to see the quality is going to be the same!

Still really skeptical about fanatics and their quality control. Cheap stuff at exorbitant prices.

I’m really hopeful for these! I actually like a lot of the Fanatics gear I have already. VERY tempted to get a Sharks jersey these season.

Awesome video, @BrodieBrazil! Thank you for the informative details on the differences between the Adidas and Fanatics jerseys.

Removing the dimples on the shoulder area does make this look slightly lower quality and less premium. I'm not sure why they did away with them if they had a way to keep them other than just needing to save costs. I'm definitely excited to see how these will hold up, and I am thankful that Fanatics is at least trying to get ahead of the bad press.

Great video. Were you allowed to try it on? Wondering how it feels

Good summary Brodie. Well done w the production value.

So happy we can buy MIC jerseys in store now

First time the on-ice jersey has been available to fans in 10 years. CCM made the on-ice jerseys readily available to the public. If I’m going to spend $200+ on a jersey then I want it to be what players wear. Glad they’re getting back to this as fans DO want to spend the money for on-ice jerseys players wear because there’s a huge demand for it.

Thanks for this important information!

I'm impressed with your reporting. A hands on look before Icethetics.

Really relieved and happy that Fanatics/NHL got this right…was concerned after the MLB debacle

Yeah, lets see what they actually deliver

was real skeptical of fanatics having this contract but I am really liking what I have seen of these jerseys so far. And if they bring legit on ice jersey's back for sale I am all for it. If I am buying a sweater I want the on ice one even if it is bigger to fit equipment.

I liked the dimples but overall they look very good. Can't complain

Hey, as long as we can’t see John Tavares’s jock strap during the game then Fanatics did their job

I have 2 Fanatics jerseys, and have played in them. I think they would count as “Breakaway” under this nomenclature. No complaints for the price point-they’re roomy, the graphics look good even though they’re printed not color-stitched, and I like the flexibility of the patches.

Thank you for your fantastic videos. They should have kept the shoulder dimples , right? To me, Fantatics- quality products are, at best, equivalent to Kirkland brand. The logo alone makes it sub-premium. I don't know, well see. Sorry Kirkland.

Man authentic pro. I'm excited to get one of those

Anyone that's owned a Made in Canada (MiC) jersey knows that once you get one, you'll never buy another model. I'm glad they didn't change up too much. I'll personally miss the dimples but understand not carrying that on.

As someone who wears jerseys as a fashion statement, the Fanatics Breakaway jerseys are perfect for me. They're more comfortable and fit better compared to the Adidas ones. The Adidas ones are too long and the fight strap really bothers me.

BUT How must is the on ice jersey going to coast and the premium one too. I hear the on ice is going to be over 400.00 dollars

Top notch Mr Brazil as always ✔️

This is actually very promising. I enjoy their Breakaway for the comfort level, but it's nice to see my expectations should not be diminished for some new jerseys I have my eye on for next season (Panthers, Bolts 3rd, etc.). I am curious if they will make the white road jerseys more available than Adidas did the past few seasons. Sometimes the clean white look is the way to go.

Yep. From what I have heard, there will be three tiers of jerseys fans can choose from. There will still be the cheapest Fanatics “replica” jerseys from previous years, then there will be the “authentic” jerseys that are very similar to the Adidas jerseys you could buy last year, then there’s the “Authentic Pro” jerseys that are exactly the same as the ones the players wear, all the way down to the fact they are made in the same factory

They tend to use a smaller font for the nameplate on their breakaway jerseys, and it often looks ridiculous.

And here I am still buying CCM and Koho jerseys because they're so simple basic and clean.

I'm glad I got game & practice jerseys by CCM don't think any other MFG came close to CCM.

Regarding the authentic jerseys, are the logos stitched on or heat pressed on?

Whew! San Mateo's own Fanatics appear to have got it right. So glad and relieved.

I wonder about the fit? Will the premiums fit like Indo’s or the current Fanatics Breakaway’s? Also, price. I’m not a collector I have a few that I wear out and to games, so I don’t see a MIC in my future. But, everything has gone up so I imagine the premiums will be more than Adidas Primegreen.

only the on ice jerseys will keep the old manufacturing factory. The consumer level ones will be manufactured by Fanatics so unless you buy the highest price one there may be more noticeable drop in quality. We'll have to wait to see those up close

I’m gonna miss the shoulder dimples tbh

Great job Brodie

I don’t like the shoulders without the dimpling. Looks cheap. Makes the stitching around the neckline look puckered.

We will see how much of the on ice and authentic they will keep in stock. They barely had sharks jerseys on fanatics that wasn’t fanatics branded. The adidas authentics with player names were more expensive than other teams for some reason and they never had any new players. I’d like to be the first one in Sacramento get the celebrini jersey lol. They better have them in stock instead of blanks to make you pay more for customization.

It looks like they removed a ton of fabric panels compare it to how many seams there are on the Adidas jersey...I wonder how they fit and flow

This is still a wait and see situation, but this video has given some reasons to be optimistic The quality control of Fanatics is notoriously terrible, and that reputation is gonna stick until they can prove otherwise

Not to just be a negative Nancy, but the on ice jerseys have had double material on the elbows going back over 30 years. It’s been one of the distinguishing features of the pro jerseys. This video gives the impression this is brand new, and being introduced for the first time with these jerseys. It’s not. Good quality video other than that.

Wonder why the NHL doesn't go back to CCM, or KOHO?

i have the adidas 21-22 sharks green. its really awesome. the 22-23's aren't as good, cuz they dropped too much of the orange. weird, they change the jerseys and then karlsson wins another norris. the fanatics are very good, cuz they look more like the ccm's, than reeboks or adidas. at least they kept the orange, with the hockey stick. they should do an orange third for 24-25.

One request: give us retros! I want them to make authentic jerseys of former teams (nordiques, whalers thrashers, barons, coyotes, and maybe former hockey teams before the original 6 that existed like the vancouver millionares and seattle metropolitans (who won the stanley cup in the nhl before the kraken existed decades ago) in a modern take) or the og ottowa senators jersey in a modern take with the “O” logo. Just give us retros or reverse retros again! So many chances fanatics can use to win fans over if they listen to their consumers.

I don't purchase jerseys. The only time I'll see them is during games that I watch ( if I decide to watch any games). Besides, there's no such thing as an affordable jersey.
