^ yea, and im not leaving until the 20th so might be able to get somewhat of a deal on gear after the finals

anyways here's the fake i bought because i was being stupid and didnt take a closer look, basically a friend of a friend sold me and a buddy 2 Kesler sweaters, didnt even really look at them since they were only $100, they have all bars stiched, a fight strap, numbered sizing, etc. if i had seen the shoulder patches earlier i would have probably been tipped off.. oh well just hang it up proabably for just the Kesler side..

side by side a REAL replica sweater:









edit* probably should have taken it next to a whale logo one, but too lazy

lol 100 bucks should have been the first tip off.. the shitty thing is whoever sold it to you made money off it.

secondly, i would have been more tipped off from just the shoulder patches.. ie.. the kesler being sewn directly on the jersey, the colour, the vancouver font, the number font, the orca, and last but not least, the fight strap..

you should put a side by side with another orca, you would see the difference even more.

side by side a REAL replica sweater:


damn, I would have been tipped off immediately by the colour.
It screams out "gross" when I look at it. Before I even read your post, I looked at the photo and the colours made me cringe. And until I saw the side by side, did I notice that the Canuck colours are blue and green in that arrangement. I thought they had mixed up the placement of the white and blue and green areas at first. Their version of light blue and dark green creates and uneasy contrast.

Oh well, at least you can wear that jersey when you play hockey or something and don't have to worry about dirtying up a real jersey.

besides online, and sport chek sales, the team store is actually not badly priced.. i found that their premier jerseys with names were 219, where places like vancity sports had it for 229.

i know luongo jerseys were selling for about 150 or so at the hockey shop in surrey... the 40th ann jersey i also lower in price than the orcas lately

I think if the green on it was the right green it would look way better.
Like you said, the logo doesn't look too bad.

show your canucks spirit and at the same time not worrying about your jersey.

God damn. I know this has been covered a million times in this thread, but I wouldnt be caught dead with a fake jersey. At least buy an authentic replica! They dont have to be real jerseys, but at least the replicas are fantastic quality, are 100% correct, and support the team. And I mean, If you're spending $100 on some shit from china, why not spend the extra $19 and get something authentic!?

Seriously, some of this fake shit is so bad it makes me puke in my mouth a bit. It blows my mind that anyone would own that shit.

Obscure!? What...are you not aware that Ryan Kesler wears #17, previously worn by Canucks greats like Drake Berehowsky, Lonny Bohonos and Bill Muckalt?

How could you forget about Lonny Bohonos?!

Spoiler!

I'd say that one in every 7 jerseys in Surrey is fake. Makes me cringe when I see one. If you plan on buying one, at least buy a used one that's a replica, and not a total fake. I've seen absolutely brutal fakes that have terrible color, logos, and lettering.
