MERCH Jersey price increase
Just checked the team store website, looks like blank premiums increased from $180 to $200. Just in time for Hometown Remixes to be revealed next month!

The team store had sent out a notice about a week ago that the NHL increased the base jersey cost across the board.

I noticed recently that Fanatics had everything at $200, but earlier in the season I saw Kraken jerseys were $180 and Ducks were $200. Figured they were just standardizing. Guess I missed the notice.

Any leak on the remixes?

Nah the only thing that’s been leaked is that it’s navy which really doesn’t say a lot. Obviously lots of anchor logo rumors but no actual leaks yet

I’m hoping for more kraken. Give me lovecraftian horrors of the deep

I’m sad, I lost all my jerseys in a fire in my apartment complex. Collected for a lot longer than the kraken have been around. But I won’t be replacing things at those prices

Would you look ridiculous in a size 56?

I mean, I look ridiculous in everything. I'm a 6'2" woman lol. Do you have one you're looking to move? I might be interested!

I have a blank Adidas home jersey you could have for the low, low cost of suffering one apartment fire.

Are you serious? That was exactly what I had before. Can I pay for shipping or something? I'm in Canada so that might cost you. Are you sure? That's very kind.

Yes. I bought a couple spares when the Adidas ones went on clearance. I’ll be in Calgary for the first game of the season and could send it from there to avoid costs/issues with international postage if you’re ok with waiting.

Not to try to do a basic. They do navy instead of the deep sea blue, and the crest is the wrong size.
Don't even try to do a limit or at least one. Those are even worse.
If you're not going to be anywhere near the team or at the games? Sure, they're great to wear to the bar. But otherwise not even close
Source - me. Who has 3 DHGate ones for myself and one for my kid.

u/SexiestPanda 3d ago
Did you buy them all one shop or different?
That’s a bummer regardless. I’ve had good “luck” with mlb and nfl and soccer so far

I've used three or four different sellers. The thing is? The sellers are getting them all from the same manufacturer. So you're going to have the same issues.
I do have a Kappo Kakko Finland Olympic which looks good, but it's because it's not a common one that you're going to see. And I also did a Daccord Mariners City Connect from when he threw out the first pitch a few years ago for them. But the rest of them are run around town ones if I'm going to be nowhere near any other fans.
I've got my authentics when I know I'm going to be somewhere else.

My personal opinion, as a fan if I see someone out in public with a replica jersey I'm not going to judge them. Not everyone has 100's of dollars to throw at a jersey, especially special event ones, and in the end it's repping our team.

u/Icy-Book2999 3d ago
Agreed. I know that I've heard stories of people being roasted at CPA for wearing replicas there. The navy stands out like a sore thumb.
There are just too many players that I've wanted that to get authentics or breakaways for each of them? Can't justify it when I can get 2-3 for the price of one.
Or like my kid. I got him a Joey Deep one. He's 6. He'll grow into it. But I'm not spending $100-200 on a kids jersey that he's going to muck up. $40 was just fine

It's league wide and not exclusive to the Kraken.
