Robinson Joe burning jerseys? that's hate on another level. I tried thinking of reasons I'd burn a Leafs jersey and can't think of one and I can't stand them.
I'm really sorry, but u boys are really amateurs. There's so much u don't know it's embarrassing, u just gloss over u information. It was hard to watch, sincerely, I've been a collector over 35 yrs. I know my stuff. It's so much more deepth of knowledge to be telling novices what's accurate. Andrew. Ps. Adidas sucks compared to the reebok pros. Their fight strap pales in comparison, weaker strap, sewn down is half as good, find a game worn one. Now that's the real mcoy. Store bought is a joke. And I can prove it.
My mum got my crease completely out of my Florida one put a towel over the back of the logo inside out and ironed it 😁 Personally like it also it's cheaper my mum bought me the Florida Panthers one honestly I would prefer if the logo was a stitched one but I still love it very comfy fits a red hoodie underneath. I live in UK it's hard to get one order it online altleast the logo on the shoulder is the same material as the main logo I also don't mind the fanatics one at the bottom it's the same size as the Reebok ones I do prefer the stitched nhl logo on fanatics to the weird shiny nhl logo
RebeccaHindle really? I got a caps jersey for Christmas like 4 years ago and the logo has been creased since like the week i got it and haven’t been able to get it out
@@MarkRichards4Prez I have quiet alot of stiching on like the preds Jersey and one of my sharks Jerseys quiet a bit of stiching on. My wild jersey has some on and my panthers retro Jersey has some stiching on so its better
Adidas owns Reebok. Fanatics owns Majestic now (so that they can keep making MLB jerseys at Majestic plant). Adidas only makes AdiZero (Authentic, on-ice, jersey). Fanatics has the exclusive rights to make and sell official NHL Premier jerseys (Replicas) until 2034.
The crest on that Devils' Fanatics jersey was so shiny. It looked odd. I haven't noticed that on other crests as of yet, but that alone would be a deal breaker for me
Although Fanatics is allowed to sell their jerseys as official jerseys, when it's not Reebook or Adidas, it feels like a fake jersey. I want what the players wear on the ice.
Even the adidas jerseys sold online aren't what the players wear on the ice. The only way you'll ever be able to buy that is if you buy a game issue or game worn jersey.
Thomas Hill it’s just the feel of it. Since the fanatic ones are heat pressed. The adidas ones (and the old Reebok ones too) are stitched it’s a completely different feel at lieast I think it is.
I just bought a fanatics jersey and they actually developed a new logo material that doesn't have a crease in it (I'm writing this 5 months after this video was released). Even though it's not completely stitched, it's not heat-pressed either. It's stitched on the outside but it's actually another piece of material attached to the jersey, and it feels better. I bought it from a shop, so it was hanging and had no crease, but I tried folding it very strongly and it did nothing. Overall, really nice jersey. But I guess the fanatics tag is really big indeed
Loved the intro! Andrew is an awesome dude and I really like the collab. I want to get my first jersey this year so this video was really helpful. Only thing I would add is the pricing. Maybe you could have said something about that. But it's no big issue, just an idea. Thanks for compararing the two, great video as always :)
I was at the NYR@BOS game Saturday, haven’t been to a game since in almost 10 years. My jerseys are from when Reebok was still making them. My dad’s jersey is Fanatics, and it was interesting seeing how the name tags on the Adidas jerseys were ACTUALLY gold where it was almost shining and the fanatics was just, sorta, golden yellow. It is REALLY hard buying a jersey if you don’t know what you’re looking for, so thank you for this video!
In the mail yesterday, I got a Fanatics Capitals jersey without a crease in the center, I guess I got lucky. I do like it very much, although I don't own an Adidas jersey (besides the fact that it has a Stanley Cup Champions patch on it)
Hey Neil, alternate jerseys are coming back the nhl! So far only Arizona and Carolina have released their new ones, but when most of the other teams jerseys are released, you should rank them! Also love this vid and AP is a great guest!
I’m so glad you guys posted this. Just the other week I bought my first ever hockey jersey (Blue Jackets) and I got Fanatics and didn’t know the difference. I got lucky with my jersey packaging cause the logo wasn’t folded. The jersey was folded into a square with the logo face front.
Big reason I won’t be getting a fanatics jersey is on some jerseys the logo is out of place (especially on Tampa’s in particular) it’s about 3-4 inches too low and it really bugs me for whatever reason, good comparison though, enjoyed the video!
I have a fanatics jersey that is more comfortable to relax in and the logos dont bend it is also more soft the Adidas jersey is lighter better to play in and looks better but both are great and the fanatics are cheaper
Hey guys I noticed when you were comparing logos on the fanatics jerseys one is stitched and one is not ... the reason for that is because the sens jersey is a “heritage” jersey so they fabricate it more carefully than the regular fanatics jersey ... thought you guys would like this info 👍
The thing that turned me off was the big badge on the fanatics jersey. The RBks had them also but the fanatics seem a bit over priced (well all jerseys are ) but the addidas are worth getting and I love the material look on the shoulders .
I've got the Habs reverse retro by Fanatics and it is stunning, really good quality logo with no crease to be seen. they def upped their game with the reverse retro
So glad to hear that! I ordered the arizona coyotes reverse retro in a fanatics and was really scared it was going to be a pos. Glad to hear you like the quality!

I have a Bruins Winter Classic Fanatics jersey and everything is stitched and heat pressed. I did see the ADIDAS one in a store the other day and it is nicer, but the Fanatic one is nice
Thanks! I was looking to get an Oshie jersey Fanatics brand, but with Adidas being the supplier of jerseys for NHL I was sorta confused. One thing I noticed right off the bat was the NHL Shield wasn't shiny on the Fanatics jersey, but I thought it would be petty to complain about just that. Watching this really helped! Now I just got find out what size will fit me.
I have the Rangers winter classic jersey and it is AWESOME. The horizontal lettering is leather cutouts and the NY badge has an almost cotton fuzz. The adidas jerseys have great detail and quality.
I got a Fanatics Pens jersey since it was on sale. I just can't justify spending close to $200 on a jersey. I got pretty lucky on the crease, it was small and seems to have disappeared. It feels great. I feel you on the chest logo. The only two noticeable differences I can feel is no Adidas emblem on my back and the NHL logo on my neck isn't shiny.
I got a Fanatics jersey. I'm lucky that there wasn't really a crease on my logo. It's ridiculous that this is an issue though. Other than that I like it. I just can't justify spending over $200 for an Adidas jersey.
Raw Dog TV some people are in college, some people are adults. 200 dollars on a jerseys is insane. I’m still growing and spending 200 dollars is nuts when it’s gonna be outgrown in 2 years.
Raw Dog TV ah let me guess, white kid that lives in suburban neighbourhood, parents are semi successful, you get everything you want because you’re parents are afraid to say no, you cringe fully act “gangster” on Instagram, trust me, I seen your type, I know what it looks like.
That's odd, I have 2 fanatics Leafs jerseys and 1 Reebok Leafs jersey. The fanatic ones I have don't have a crease in the logo for either. Also the logo material for mine feels the same as with the Reebok jersey logo. Pretty much the only thing I think the adidas jerseys do better than both the fanatics and Reebok is the shiny hard NHL logo on the collar. That being said my fanatics jerseys each were $250 (Home jersey- Matthews, Away jersey - Marner) where as the equivlent jerseys by adidas were $350.
CBJFan9729 yeha that's one thing about the Leafs that is annoying is everything is so expensive. Merch and the game tickets are very expensive. Almost cheaper to buy tickets for better seats for an away game in Ottawa even taking the 4-5 hr drive's worth of gas into consideration.
I got a fanatics Carter Hart jersey a few days ago. I gotta admit I was very skeptical but compared to my lower teir rebok gostisbehere there is a a good reason to buy a fanatics jersey. The fanatics jersey has a much better quality to the rebok (other than the breastplate). My rebok jerseys have alot of fraying and loose strings while I feel the sweater material on the fanatics will fare alot better. Overall for $135 dollars you can't do much better. I have baseball jerseys that cost this much and don't even have this kind of quality. I'm very impressed.

I got 2 jerseys from fanatics for black friday for around $110 Canadian and tbh I'd probably not buy them full price but for the sale price they were worth it. I bought the Washington Capitals home and alternate. The alternate is an Ovechkin one and the letters and numbers are fine. The crest isnt so glossy and plasticky like the Devils one in the video and no crease. The home one is a Tom Wilson one. Letters are also good and crest with no crease. Overall, they're good if you get them on sale but full price idk maybe.
You know what's sad? I went to the jets store, took a look at the Adizero Jets navy blue jersey, a Fanatics Jets navy blue jersey, and a navy blue CCM Quicklite Premier Manitoba Moose jersey. The truth of the matter is, other than the collar, there are less differences between the Manitoba Moose jersey compared to the Adizero, than the Fanatics jerseys. In both the Adizero and Moose jersey, in the arms, the light blue bands are sewn on top of the white and navy blue parts of the jersey. The light blue bands are also a different material compared to the white and navy blue in the arms. Like the Adizero, the Moose crest is embroidered, the only difference being it is glued on, not sewn on. In the Fanatics, the white part is sewn on top of the light blue part, which is then sewn on top of the the navy blue part. All 3 colors are the same material. The front crest is this plastic like material, except for half of the jet in which a piece of material is sewn on the top, or maybe glued on the top of the plastic part of the crest. In the Jets Adizero and Moose CCM Quicklite Replicas, the material feel similar to one another. In the Fanatics, the material is much softer. Here's some perspective. In the Jets store, the Jets Adizero costs $199.99, the Jets Fanatics costs $149.99, and the Moose CCM Quicklite Replica costs $134.99. I highly doubt the price difference between Moose jersey and Fanatics is because one is NHL and one is AHL, or the NHL jersey collars cost $15 more to make compared to the AHL jersey collars. So remember, other than the collar, and the fact that it is an AHL team, for less money, you are buying a jersey that looks closer to the Authentic, than what you would buy from a Fanatics. All I'm saying is, for the $50 price difference, it isn't because the Fanatics jerseys are easier to manufacture, or that they use cheaper ways to manufacture the jersey, such as using one material, or using less steps to manufacture the jersey. The Moose jersey, other than using the different materials, is manufactured, especially the arms, the same way as the Jets Adizero jerseys, and it costs $65 less, AND the front crest is embroidered. The part that ticks me off about the Fanatics is that they don't try to make them similar to the authentic jerseys. From afar, the look the same, but when you own both a Fanatics, and the Adizero, the differences are immense, compared to the differences between Reebok Authentic and Reebok Replicas. Do you consider the Fanatics jerseys as replica jerseys, or do you consider them a whole different thing, such as a sweater, or hoodie that kind of looks like the jersey, but isn't?
RJ Pugs,i can help ya. The Rebook's you can wear a size smaller than you normally wear. I wear a large in it. The new Adidas jerseys are true size & in them i wear a 54. Hope it help ya out.
I’m from the UK (Nottingham Panthers fan) and I have an Adidas and a Fanatics Florida Panthers Adidas Away jersey and Fanatics home jersey and I have to say I prefer the Fanatics jersey feels more of a football (soccer) jersey more comfy and the arms on the fanatics jersey are a lot more better fit by that I mean they are not as baggy as the Adidas ones. Also coming from the UK it’s more cheaper to buy a fanatics one than an Adidas one but I think yous should compare a new fanatics jersey. Also getting the crease out turn it inside out and iron it with a towel on top 🤘🏻
I have a Tampa Bay Fanatics and the logo looks a lot better than those ones, the bolt is stitched and raised from the background, it is not just one piece heat-pressed like that. I got it shipped and did not get a crease in the logo. I think that there are good and bad fanatics jerseys depending on the team; thankfully the one I have is pretty good.
Little late to the party, but I bought a Coyotes Fanatic jersey when i was in Glendale, I love it, its super comfortable pretty well made, just not a fan of the weird logo texture but overall its a 8.5/10. Pros- Comfortable Well made Pro or a con but its got a bit of weight to it Looks great Cons- Weird logo texture Big fanatic patch at bottom NHL logo is not vinyl like the Adidas jerseys No fight strap
Ive just gotten a fanatic jersey off the NHL website and was little scared to wear it to a game on jan 10 out of concern it was fake? but overall watching the video made my heart panic like OMG but when I got to the end turns out its real its just different then the other jerseys because of different brands like Adidas or reebok but overall at least i'm happy to hear that their real...and without a doubt taking it to the game....thanks for this video! you get my subscribe!

Amazing intro, it was halarious. Love your jersey videos they are always exciting to watch. I have a quick question. Should I go for a James Neal Flames jersey?
So when you say the main logo on the front isn't stitched, it is actually a different material than the authentic or it's just adhered to the jersey differently? Because how would the stitching determine whether or not it creases? I'm curious because I hate the stiff, bulky crests on the old Reebok jerseys and I bought an Adidas authentic Sabres winter classic. I'm hoping the crest isn't as annoying.
If there's one thing I've noticed (other than the fake sublimated vs stitched logo etc) on the Edmonton Oilers orange jersey, is that the shade of orange appears different (at least in photos). the Fanatics looks quite dull by comparison.
I just got my fanatics jersey today. It's the centenial classic ottawa senators jersey with bobby ryan on it. I love the jersey and do not think its of a bad quality. I was worried the numbers and name would be heat pressed but they are stitched
@@RawDogTV if you want a collection of nhl jerseys you can have the right $$$ jersey but for everyday wear you can get a replica. I do not see anything wrong in it. Do you?
I have a few Adidas jerseys, but I just bought a new Fanatics Lightning third jerseys and the front crest is much better than on the regular home blue jerseys. It won't crease at all Maybe they are making improvements? I will say, the numbers on my Adidas jersey crease easily after sitting or driving. So there's that
Hey guys! Can you make a jersey sizing video? Lots of people wanting to buy jerseys for the first time have no idea about sizing. Is it the same size fanatics and adidas?
I just got a Canadiens fanatics jersey and it’s quite nice! Only thing I do not love about it is that the logo has a weird shine to it. But great otherwise! A friend of mine has a Kraken adidas jersey and says it’s super nice!
I think the crease in the fanatics jersey logo depends on how big the logo is because I have a ducks maple leafs and pens fanatics jersey and none have the crease
HOW DOES IT FIT?!?! They are literally advertised as being made completely different to fit more comfortably. You just pointed out what we know. I don't understand how none of the different "reviews" videos don't address this. Thank you for not being helpful.
Very respectful feedback Jonathan, thanks for that. You could have asked the exact same question without being a dick. I'll still answer your question though. I personally don't like the way they fit because they are more heavy and the material seems to rub together enough to make it annoying to move. Hopefully you have a better day than your attitude.
@@Post2Post Post2Post you realize that my comment was pretty respectful while sitting my distaste for your review video. Unlike your reply to my comment. But yeah, I'm the bad guy. You might be better off with the thicker Jersey to make up for the think skin. Also when you say heavier, do you think it breathes less? I live in Texas and it gets insanely hot even during the season. Which one would you rather wear in 90* sun? Thanks
@@nospower9 "Thanks for not being helpful" is a pretty rude thing to say, and really unneeded. I spent hours producing this video and tried to be as thorough as possible, and you took seconds to discredit it. Yeah there are things I missed, but it's still a decent video. You could have conveyed what you wanted to know without automatically trying to insult someone. It's a poor attitude and ultimately it only makes you look bad. Would you actually say that to my face on the street if I was doing a jersey review right in front of you? Probably not. You'd likely just ask the question you wanted to ask, I'd answer it, and that would be it. Instead you chose to ask a question and then insult me. Why, because you're behind a screen and there are no consequences? Treat people how you would treat them in person. I chose to reply in the same tone you did because I don't like when people drop by, leave a rude comment, and then bail thinking that's okay. Also that's exactly how I would reply in person if someone said that to me. I'm not afraid to stand up for myself and others. The things you wanted to know in your original comment were completely valid, throwing "thanks for not being helpful" was a dick thing to say, I'm not sure how you don't see that. I've had death threats, threats of being mailed anthrax and many things along the same line, so I have thick skin and I'm used to people being rude or threatening. The point is that if I can make someone aware that there is way to convey an opinion without being rude, maybe the next time they comment on a video on anyones channel they will be a little more respectful. I think you can understand that, right? If I lived in an area where it was primarily warm most of the year like Texas, I definitely wouldn't wear a Fanatics jersey outside. It doesn't breath very well at all. It's more like a sweater than a jersey. The material is quite smooth and almost a bit slippery, not like a typical jersey with perforated holes for ventilation. Sometimes it's hard to justify spending almost twice as much on an Adidas jersey vs a Fanatics one, but if you have the money I would highly recommend getting an Adidas jersey, especially since you're in Texas.
I heard that Adizero is even different from the on-ice jersey. Not sure though having never worn an on-ice adidas jersey. I do know the Reebok Edge 2.0 on-ice jerseys they are way different.

I have a couple fanatics jerseys and I just had a Florida jersey come in today and the name plate was poorly ironed on so it's already peeled. Very disappointing cuz honestly I love the fanatics jerseys very comfortable and everything. But for the price I paid it shouldn't be peeling. Fanatics is comfortable and it's a jersey for a good price but always check the stitching if you can cuz addias is more expensive but you're getting what you pay for. Again love fanatics just watch out for the iron on stuff may want to stitch it on yourself or even bring it to a seamstress.

I bought a Detroit Red Wings Fanatics jersey with a player number. The logo is a full patch of the winged wheel and numbers and name. It looks as good as a addias jersey. I wonder if it varies by team or style?
Can anyone help me figure out the old Reebok jerseys like size 50 or 54, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a jersey and I want one and I’m an xl and looking on ebay it’s hard to tel what size I should get
So I bought a fanatics jersey and with the 2020 edition atleast it wasn’t as bad as I thought. Yes it looks cheaper but not the level of quality of a fake jersey. It’s a bit thinner feeling overall but still feels like a variation of the same material adidas uses just not as thick. The logo looks sorta stitched but not just cheap plastic logos like the lighting in the video might make it seem. Definitely ok quality but not as good as adidas. Granted I got mine on sale for over 50% off the blank fanatics Canes jerseys. So I’d say at their normal price it would depend on the person but on sale it’s a good deal if you want a cheap jersey and have a hard time finding a jersey you want in Reebok. To me it would be worth it in certain situation. Overall not bad I’d go as far as say it’s a good jersey
Hey great video. I wish you had both the Adidas and fanatics Jersey side by side. The numbers and logo look completely different. Also the NHL emblem on the front of the jereys are different. The Adidas one is a shiny metal piece and the fanatics is a stiched patch that isn't shiny. I honestly think the fanatics numbering and logo look cheap and plasticy next to the Adidas one. The Adidas jerseys numbering and logo embroidery is far superior.
And I meant the NJ Jersey side by side. It's a lot easier to spot the difference when you have both the Adidas and the fanatics Jersey from one team side by side.
I recently bought the VGK home and Anaheim Ducks alternate (black and teal) Jersey off Fanatics. Solely because I'm a broke boy and caught them when it was on a 60% off sale. The logos luckily weren't creased in shipping but I'd want to be careful and rather keep it hanging Other than that I respect your honest opinions about the Fanatics jerseys but I'll stick to trying to keep it cheap and buying those
THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THE ADIDAS ONES ARE THEY ARE SMALL..! I want something that is not going to be tight. i am a big 6'4 300 reebok ones run small as well. the fanatics are a lot bigger in size..
Loving your videos! I’m in the market for a jersey and couldn’t decide between adidas or fanatics but this made me realize that adidas is worth it. If I’m 6’0 170lbs what size do you think I would be in adidas?
I need help I was told if my boyfriend wears an xxl in fanatics I should get him a 56 in adidas but it’s a lil bit of a snugger fit. Is it a huge difference to wear I should get him a 60?
I have a Kadri & Kessel Reebok and Martin & Tavares Adidas and I love them. I am not a fan of the Fanatics, they feel and look cheaper and of lesser quality.
I bought my son 2 fanatics jerseys.....a Vegas jersey & a Sharks jersey......the sharks one was very cheap, ironed on logo......the Vegas one is one of the nicest jerseys I've seen....almost 100% the same as the Adidas.....even the logo...the logo on the Vegas Fanatics wasn't iron, it was stitched on and the gold on the jersey is awesome.....the sharks jersey was a big disappointment, as I had never bought or seen a fanatics jersey & didn't know that some of them are ironed on and cheap....the jersey itself is nice, if only the logo was stitched.

I'm thinking about buying a Knights Jersey. Should I buy a custom one with my last name on it or should I buy one with a already active player? What do you think? It will be my first nhl Jersey. I need some suggestions lol
I just got my first Fanatics jersey as a gift. I do really like the material Fanatics uses for their jersey but the logo and number material, along with the stitching, just seem wrong. My biggest complaint is the numbers. They are noticeably wrong colors. The flyers jersey should be orange, they are red. I wouldn't ever spend my own money on a Fanatics jersey.

If you're a Blackhawks fan getting an authentic is a MUST. Chicago is the only team in the NHL that has chain-stitched logos, and they're beautiful on the authentics. When you go for the replicas, you get those heat-pressed ugly logos that look horrible. Don't even get me started on the Chinese knockoffs. To each his own though.

I ordered some different brands like ccm and the chest size fits but under the chest around the stomach gets tapered and doesn’t stretch. Does these stretch from bottom to top? Anyone see this issue with hockey jerseys?
Neil: “So do you like the idea for the intro?”
Andrew: “Definitely not doing that.”
Brent: “You will.”
Andrew: “Ok.”
Go Caps! Buy an Adidas Jersey now
Man it really hurt to put on that Habs jersey! This was a cool video to make. Finally going in depth on the different style of jerseys!
It looked like a tough experience coming from a Bruins fan.
That Habs jersey looked great on you, especially in the blue under-shirt. Natural fit, you should wear it more often ;-)
Blasphemy I shall burn montreal merch in effigy. I'll have to find some first, but when I do, i'll burn it.

Personally like it also it's cheaper my mum bought me the Florida Panthers one honestly I would prefer if the logo was a stitched one but I still love it very comfy fits a red hoodie underneath.

Graviteh never forget
Adidas owns Reebok. Fanatics owns Majestic now (so that they can keep making MLB jerseys at Majestic plant). Adidas only makes AdiZero (Authentic, on-ice, jersey). Fanatics has the exclusive rights to make and sell official NHL Premier jerseys (Replicas) until 2034.
Michael B the Adidas jerseys are "authentic" but aren't the same as the on ice jerseys.
2034???? Oh god
The crest on that Devils' Fanatics jersey was so shiny. It looked odd. I haven't noticed that on other crests as of yet, but that alone would be a deal breaker for me
Although Fanatics is allowed to sell their jerseys as official jerseys, when it's not Reebook or Adidas, it feels like a fake jersey. I want what the players wear on the ice.
Even the adidas jerseys sold online aren't what the players wear on the ice. The only way you'll ever be able to buy that is if you buy a game issue or game worn jersey.
Thomas Hill it’s just the feel of it. Since the fanatic ones are heat pressed. The adidas ones (and the old Reebok ones too) are stitched it’s a completely different feel at lieast I think it is.
MacLeighnoughton big facts bro I can’t stand printed ones I need something stitched
Breaking news!!! Neil was holding a Karlsson jersey while wearing his Habs jersey... all signs point that Karlsson is going to Montreal now
I think I just saw a pig fly !
Larry Lunchbucket its a pretty common occurrence now it feels haha
Vegas Golden Knights Coverage 😂😂
I'm sure William and Erik are racing to sign first.
VGK Coverage hall to Toronto? Lol just joking
I just bought a fanatics jersey and they actually developed a new logo material that doesn't have a crease in it (I'm writing this 5 months after this video was released). Even though it's not completely stitched, it's not heat-pressed either. It's stitched on the outside but it's actually another piece of material attached to the jersey, and it feels better. I bought it from a shop, so it was hanging and had no crease, but I tried folding it very strongly and it did nothing. Overall, really nice jersey. But I guess the fanatics tag is really big indeed
Interesting, thank you!
Best intro ever ! LOL
I think the Fanatics make good travel jerseys since the crest folds. If I was traveling somewhere and going to a game I would pack a Fanatics.
Loved the intro! Andrew is an awesome dude and I really like the collab.
I want to get my first jersey this year so this video was really helpful. Only thing I would add is the pricing. Maybe you could have said something about that. But it's no big issue, just an idea. Thanks for compararing the two, great video as always :)
I was at the NYR@BOS game Saturday, haven’t been to a game since in almost 10 years. My jerseys are from when Reebok was still making them. My dad’s jersey is Fanatics, and it was interesting seeing how the name tags on the Adidas jerseys were ACTUALLY gold where it was almost shining and the fanatics was just, sorta, golden yellow. It is REALLY hard buying a jersey if you don’t know what you’re looking for, so thank you for this video!
In the mail yesterday, I got a Fanatics Capitals jersey without a crease in the center, I guess I got lucky. I do like it very much, although I don't own an Adidas jersey (besides the fact that it has a Stanley Cup Champions patch on it)
Hey Neil, alternate jerseys are coming back the nhl! So far only Arizona and Carolina have released their new ones, but when most of the other teams jerseys are released, you should rank them! Also love this vid and AP is a great guest!
I’m so glad you guys posted this. Just the other week I bought my first ever hockey jersey (Blue Jackets) and I got Fanatics and didn’t know the difference.
I got lucky with my jersey packaging cause the logo wasn’t folded. The jersey was folded into a square with the logo face front.
Big reason I won’t be getting a fanatics jersey is on some jerseys the logo is out of place (especially on Tampa’s in particular) it’s about 3-4 inches too low and it really bugs me for whatever reason, good comparison though, enjoyed the video!
Actually I did notice this when looking online! The logo placement seems to differ by team, which is really strange. I don't blame you!
That intro was awesome😂 love the collab with Andrew!!
I have a fanatics jersey that is more comfortable to relax in and the logos dont bend it is also more soft the Adidas jersey is lighter better to play in and looks better but both are great and the fanatics are cheaper
Agreed the Intro was awesome lol I could never wear a Canucks or Hawks jersey I think I would spontaneously combust lol
Hey guys I noticed when you were comparing logos on the fanatics jerseys one is stitched and one is not ... the reason for that is because the sens jersey is a “heritage” jersey so they fabricate it more carefully than the regular fanatics jersey ... thought you guys would like this info 👍
Source plz? Thx
Okay, I’ll admit that was a funny intro...
The thing that turned me off was the big badge on the fanatics jersey. The RBks had them also but the fanatics seem a bit over priced (well all jerseys are ) but the addidas are worth getting and I love the material look on the shoulders .
No one likes the oversized badge on Fanatics. But it's not that hard to remove it.
Hey Neil, I have a Pittsburgh Penguins Fanatics jersey and my jersey doesn’t have this crease but the logo itself is huge.
Love the cold start!!
I've got the Habs reverse retro by Fanatics and it is stunning, really good quality logo with no crease to be seen. they def upped their game with the reverse retro
So glad to hear that! I ordered the arizona coyotes reverse retro in a fanatics and was really scared it was going to be a pos. Glad to hear you like the quality!

Funniest intro ever 😂
Stitching is better than heat press
100%
Stitching is better of every day use , heat press is going to flake over time. Well at least for soccer lol I only have one Hockey jersey #SHARKS!!!
I have a Bruins Winter Classic Fanatics jersey and everything is stitched and heat pressed. I did see the ADIDAS one in a store the other day and it is nicer, but the Fanatic one is nice
Thanks! I was looking to get an Oshie jersey Fanatics brand, but with Adidas being the supplier of jerseys for NHL I was sorta confused. One thing I noticed right off the bat was the NHL Shield wasn't shiny on the Fanatics jersey, but I thought it would be petty to complain about just that. Watching this really helped! Now I just got find out what size will fit me.
Aye bringing back the funny intros I like it
The jersey I bought from Pro Hockey Life came with the logo folded around the jersey I was very pleased!
I have the Rangers winter classic jersey and it is AWESOME. The horizontal lettering is leather cutouts and the NY badge has an almost cotton fuzz. The adidas jerseys have great detail and quality.
I got a Fanatics Pens jersey since it was on sale. I just can't justify spending close to $200 on a jersey.
I got pretty lucky on the crease, it was small and seems to have disappeared. It feels great.
I feel you on the chest logo. The only two noticeable differences I can feel is no Adidas emblem on my back and the NHL logo on my neck isn't shiny.
I got a Fanatics jersey. I'm lucky that there wasn't really a crease on my logo. It's ridiculous that this is an issue though.
Other than that I like it. I just can't justify spending over $200 for an Adidas jersey.
TBrizzle01 just spent 40 for a identical adidas sens jersey from dhgate
You can't be that cheap man. Lose that mentality
Raw Dog TV some people are in college, some people are adults. 200 dollars on a jerseys is insane. I’m still growing and spending 200 dollars is nuts when it’s gonna be outgrown in 2 years.
@@emutv4100 your opinion is irrelevant
Raw Dog TV ah let me guess, white kid that lives in suburban neighbourhood, parents are semi successful, you get everything you want because you’re parents are afraid to say no, you cringe fully act “gangster” on Instagram, trust me, I seen your type, I know what it looks like.
I have the Matthews adidas jersey and I love the nhl symbol on it
Love the intro 😂
Hahahah intro was on point hahahahah
That's odd, I have 2 fanatics Leafs jerseys and 1 Reebok Leafs jersey. The fanatic ones I have don't have a crease in the logo for either. Also the logo material for mine feels the same as with the Reebok jersey logo. Pretty much the only thing I think the adidas jerseys do better than both the fanatics and Reebok is the shiny hard NHL logo on the collar. That being said my fanatics jerseys each were $250 (Home jersey- Matthews, Away jersey - Marner) where as the equivlent jerseys by adidas were $350.
CBJFan9729 yeha that's one thing about the Leafs that is annoying is everything is so expensive. Merch and the game tickets are very expensive. Almost cheaper to buy tickets for better seats for an away game in Ottawa even taking the 4-5 hr drive's worth of gas into consideration.
I have 1 Fanatics Jersey which is a San Jose Sharks away Jersey. It is not bad but still has the same problems that you addressed in the video.
I got a fanatics Carter Hart jersey a few days ago. I gotta admit I was very skeptical but compared to my lower teir rebok gostisbehere there is a a good reason to buy a fanatics jersey. The fanatics jersey has a much better quality to the rebok (other than the breastplate). My rebok jerseys have alot of fraying and loose strings while I feel the sweater material on the fanatics will fare alot better. Overall for $135 dollars you can't do much better. I have baseball jerseys that cost this much and don't even have this kind of quality. I'm very impressed.
I love the shiny NHL logo on the Adidas jerseys as well as the dimples on the shoulders.

Nice intro I love it!!!!!!!!!!
I got 2 jerseys from fanatics for black friday for around $110 Canadian and tbh I'd probably not buy them full price but for the sale price they were worth it. I bought the Washington Capitals home and alternate. The alternate is an Ovechkin one and the letters and numbers are fine. The crest isnt so glossy and plasticky like the Devils one in the video and no crease. The home one is a Tom Wilson one. Letters are also good and crest with no crease. Overall, they're good if you get them on sale but full price idk maybe.
To clarify, they were $110 *EACH*
I can’t believe you got AP to put on a Habs jersey 😂😂😂
Although I have to say Neil looks great in a Leafs jersey
You know what's sad?
I went to the jets store, took a look at the Adizero Jets navy blue jersey, a Fanatics Jets navy blue jersey, and a navy blue CCM Quicklite Premier Manitoba Moose jersey.
The truth of the matter is, other than the collar, there are less differences between the Manitoba Moose jersey compared to the Adizero, than the Fanatics jerseys.
In both the Adizero and Moose jersey, in the arms, the light blue bands are sewn on top of the white and navy blue parts of the jersey. The light blue bands are also a different material compared to the white and navy blue in the arms. Like the Adizero, the Moose crest is embroidered, the only difference being it is glued on, not sewn on. In the Fanatics, the white part is sewn on top of the light blue part, which is then sewn on top of the the navy blue part. All 3 colors are the same material. The front crest is this plastic like material, except for half of the jet in which a piece of material is sewn on the top, or maybe glued on the top of the plastic part of the crest.
In the Jets Adizero and Moose CCM Quicklite Replicas, the material feel similar to one another. In the Fanatics, the material is much softer.
Here's some perspective. In the Jets store, the Jets Adizero costs $199.99, the Jets Fanatics costs $149.99, and the Moose CCM Quicklite Replica costs $134.99. I highly doubt the price difference between Moose jersey and Fanatics is because one is NHL and one is AHL, or the NHL jersey collars cost $15 more to make compared to the AHL jersey collars.
So remember, other than the collar, and the fact that it is an AHL team, for less money, you are buying a jersey that looks closer to the Authentic, than what you would buy from a Fanatics.
All I'm saying is, for the $50 price difference, it isn't because the Fanatics jerseys are easier to manufacture, or that they use cheaper ways to manufacture the jersey, such as using one material, or using less steps to manufacture the jersey. The Moose jersey, other than using the different materials, is manufactured, especially the arms, the same way as the Jets Adizero jerseys, and it costs $65 less, AND the front crest is embroidered.
The part that ticks me off about the Fanatics is that they don't try to make them similar to the authentic jerseys. From afar, the look the same, but when you own both a Fanatics, and the Adizero, the differences are immense, compared to the differences between Reebok Authentic and Reebok Replicas.
Do you consider the Fanatics jerseys as replica jerseys, or do you consider them a whole different thing, such as a sweater, or hoodie that kind of looks like the jersey, but isn't?
I would personally consider them an entirely different thing
Neil how do the Adidas jerseys fit compared to your Reeboks? I have yet to buy an Adidas because I haven’t had a chance to try multiple sizes on.
RJ Pugs,i can help ya. The Rebook's you can wear a size smaller than you normally wear. I wear a large in it. The new Adidas jerseys are true size & in them i wear a 54. Hope it help ya out.
I’m from the UK (Nottingham Panthers fan) and I have an Adidas and a Fanatics Florida Panthers Adidas Away jersey and Fanatics home jersey and I have to say I prefer the Fanatics jersey feels more of a football (soccer) jersey more comfy and the arms on the fanatics jersey are a lot more better fit by that I mean they are not as baggy as the Adidas ones. Also coming from the UK it’s more cheaper to buy a fanatics one than an Adidas one but I think yous should compare a new fanatics jersey. Also getting the crease out turn it inside out and iron it with a towel on top 🤘🏻
I have a Tampa Bay Fanatics and the logo looks a lot better than those ones, the bolt is stitched and raised from the background, it is not just one piece heat-pressed like that. I got it shipped and did not get a crease in the logo. I think that there are good and bad fanatics jerseys depending on the team; thankfully the one I have is pretty good.
Little late to the party, but I bought a Coyotes Fanatic jersey when i was in Glendale, I love it, its super comfortable pretty well made, just not a fan of the weird logo texture but overall its a 8.5/10.
Pros-
Comfortable
Well made
Pro or a con but its got a bit of weight to it
Looks great
Cons-
Weird logo texture
Big fanatic patch at bottom
NHL logo is not vinyl like the Adidas jerseys
No fight strap
Adidas > Fantastic
Ive just gotten a fanatic jersey off the NHL website and was little scared to wear it to a game on jan 10 out of concern it was fake? but overall watching the video made my heart panic like OMG but when I got to the end turns out its real its just different then the other jerseys because of different brands like Adidas or reebok but overall at least i'm happy to hear that their real...and without a doubt taking it to the game....thanks for this video! you get my subscribe!
Both are really nice jerseys, I’m wearing a fanatics one right now. Personally I find fanatics more comfortable

@@Post2Post oh yes I know! I love your post2post productions channel, I just like to go through old videos
Amazing intro, it was halarious. Love your jersey videos they are always exciting to watch. I have a quick question. Should I go for a James Neal Flames jersey?
That's up to you, it's your jersey :)
Make up ur own mind kid. Dont be a weak insecure little baby
I have a question is the logo smaller if you get a small size fanatics one I've heard it's alot smaller logo than the medium one
So when you say the main logo on the front isn't stitched, it is actually a different material than the authentic or it's just adhered to the jersey differently? Because how would the stitching determine whether or not it creases? I'm curious because I hate the stiff, bulky crests on the old Reebok jerseys and I bought an Adidas authentic Sabres winter classic. I'm hoping the crest isn't as annoying.
I'm 6'1 225 pounds im usually a 2xl do you recommend a 2xl in a fanatics jersey? Haven't bought a nhl jersey before need help please 🙏
If there's one thing I've noticed (other than the fake sublimated vs stitched logo etc) on the Edmonton Oilers orange jersey, is that the shade of orange appears different (at least in photos). the Fanatics looks quite dull by comparison.
Fanatics doesn't even use the correct colors.
I just got my fanatics jersey today. It's the centenial classic ottawa senators jersey with bobby ryan on it. I love the jersey and do not think its of a bad quality. I was worried the numbers and name would be heat pressed but they are stitched
Stop being cheap. Get the real jersey
@@RawDogTV real jerseys are for players. We are not NHL players 🙂 go cheap 😀
@@lehoo6798 no thanks
@@RawDogTV if you want a collection of nhl jerseys you can have the right $$$ jersey but for everyday wear you can get a replica. I do not see anything wrong in it. Do you?
@@lehoo6798 I can't relate bro, I have over 30 NHL jerseys. All real
I have a few Adidas jerseys, but I just bought a new Fanatics Lightning third jerseys and the front crest is much better than on the regular home blue jerseys. It won't crease at all Maybe they are making improvements?
I will say, the numbers on my Adidas jersey crease easily after sitting or driving. So there's that
Also fanfatics are the only ones who do the white away jersey if you look online
Hey guys! Can you make a jersey sizing video? Lots of people wanting to buy jerseys for the first time have no idea about sizing. Is it the same size fanatics and adidas?
I just got a Canadiens fanatics jersey and it’s quite nice! Only thing I do not love about it is that the logo has a weird shine to it. But great otherwise! A friend of mine has a Kraken adidas jersey and says it’s super nice!
All Fanatics have the same weird shine. That's why many don't like them.
I think the crease in the fanatics jersey logo depends on how big the logo is because I have a ducks maple leafs and pens fanatics jersey and none have the crease
Honestly the crease wouldn't be a big deal to me
I'm 6'1 and 185 lbs, what size do you guys recommend for an Adidas jersey especially if I want to wear hoodies under it? I mostly wear a size M
HOW DOES IT FIT?!?!
They are literally advertised as being made completely different to fit more comfortably.
You just pointed out what we know. I don't understand how none of the different "reviews" videos don't address this.
Thank you for not being helpful.
Very respectful feedback Jonathan, thanks for that. You could have asked the exact same question without being a dick. I'll still answer your question though. I personally don't like the way they fit because they are more heavy and the material seems to rub together enough to make it annoying to move. Hopefully you have a better day than your attitude.
@@Post2Post Post2Post you realize that my comment was pretty respectful while sitting my distaste for your review video. Unlike your reply to my comment. But yeah, I'm the bad guy. You might be better off with the thicker Jersey to make up for the think skin.
Also when you say heavier, do you think it breathes less? I live in Texas and it gets insanely hot even during the season. Which one would you rather wear in 90* sun?
Thanks
@@nospower9 "Thanks for not being helpful" is a pretty rude thing to say, and really unneeded. I spent hours producing this video and tried to be as thorough as possible, and you took seconds to discredit it. Yeah there are things I missed, but it's still a decent video. You could have conveyed what you wanted to know without automatically trying to insult someone. It's a poor attitude and ultimately it only makes you look bad. Would you actually say that to my face on the street if I was doing a jersey review right in front of you? Probably not. You'd likely just ask the question you wanted to ask, I'd answer it, and that would be it. Instead you chose to ask a question and then insult me. Why, because you're behind a screen and there are no consequences? Treat people how you would treat them in person. I chose to reply in the same tone you did because I don't like when people drop by, leave a rude comment, and then bail thinking that's okay. Also that's exactly how I would reply in person if someone said that to me. I'm not afraid to stand up for myself and others. The things you wanted to know in your original comment were completely valid, throwing "thanks for not being helpful" was a dick thing to say, I'm not sure how you don't see that. I've had death threats, threats of being mailed anthrax and many things along the same line, so I have thick skin and I'm used to people being rude or threatening. The point is that if I can make someone aware that there is way to convey an opinion without being rude, maybe the next time they comment on a video on anyones channel they will be a little more respectful. I think you can understand that, right?
If I lived in an area where it was primarily warm most of the year like Texas, I definitely wouldn't wear a Fanatics jersey outside. It doesn't breath very well at all. It's more like a sweater than a jersey. The material is quite smooth and almost a bit slippery, not like a typical jersey with perforated holes for ventilation. Sometimes it's hard to justify spending almost twice as much on an Adidas jersey vs a Fanatics one, but if you have the money I would highly recommend getting an Adidas jersey, especially since you're in Texas.
@@Post2Post that last paragraph was worth a "like" for the video.
Good information. Now the review of the shirts is complete.
Thanks homie
I heard that Adizero is even different from the on-ice jersey. Not sure though having never worn an on-ice adidas jersey. I do know the Reebok Edge 2.0 on-ice jerseys they are way different.
How do they fit? If I have large in fanatics would I go 52 (large) in Adidas?

I have a couple fanatics jerseys and I just had a Florida jersey come in today and the name plate was poorly ironed on so it's already peeled. Very disappointing cuz honestly I love the fanatics jerseys very comfortable and everything. But for the price I paid it shouldn't be peeling. Fanatics is comfortable and it's a jersey for a good price but always check the stitching if you can cuz addias is more expensive but you're getting what you pay for. Again love fanatics just watch out for the iron on stuff may want to stitch it on yourself or even bring it to a seamstress.

But I am learning to deal with it because I got the jerseys I want it with the players I want it.

Little size help..I have tried on a fanatics and like size medium. haven't tried on the adidas but want to order one.. recommend 46 or 50?
Probably size 50. I find Adidas runs a little small
Where do you buy the Adidas ones? With the shiny NHL crest and the inside on the top of the jersey?
I bought a Detroit Red Wings Fanatics jersey with a player number. The logo is a full patch of the winged wheel and numbers and name. It looks as good as a addias jersey. I wonder if it varies by team or style?
What about the sizing of the adizero jersey compared to the Fanatics?
These are the important questions
Can anyone help me figure out the old Reebok jerseys like size 50 or 54, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a jersey and I want one and I’m an xl and looking on ebay it’s hard to tel what size I should get
Help! If I wear a size M on a SOCCER jersey, what size should I use? Just for everyday wear
Hey I was wondering which jersey I should get. I was going for the adidas jersey and I’m about 5.2 feet and around 100 lbs. What size should I get?
I would say size 44!
Post2Post ok thanks!
So I bought a fanatics jersey and with the 2020 edition atleast it wasn’t as bad as I thought. Yes it looks cheaper but not the level of quality of a fake jersey. It’s a bit thinner feeling overall but still feels like a variation of the same material adidas uses just not as thick. The logo looks sorta stitched but not just cheap plastic logos like the lighting in the video might make it seem. Definitely ok quality but not as good as adidas. Granted I got mine on sale for over 50% off the blank fanatics Canes jerseys. So I’d say at their normal price it would depend on the person but on sale it’s a good deal if you want a cheap jersey and have a hard time finding a jersey you want in Reebok. To me it would be worth it in certain situation. Overall not bad I’d go as far as say it’s a good jersey
Hey great video. I wish you had both the Adidas and fanatics Jersey side by side. The numbers and logo look completely different. Also the NHL emblem on the front of the jereys are different. The Adidas one is a shiny metal piece and the fanatics is a stiched patch that isn't shiny. I honestly think the fanatics numbering and logo look cheap and plasticy next to the Adidas one. The Adidas jerseys numbering and logo embroidery is far superior.
And I meant the NJ Jersey side by side. It's a lot easier to spot the difference when you have both the Adidas and the fanatics Jersey from one team side by side.
I recently bought the VGK home and Anaheim Ducks alternate (black and teal) Jersey off Fanatics. Solely because I'm a broke boy and caught them when it was on a 60% off sale. The logos luckily weren't creased in shipping but I'd want to be careful and rather keep it hanging
Other than that I respect your honest opinions about the Fanatics jerseys but I'll stick to trying to keep it cheap and buying those
The logos on fanatics look to be sublimated. Pretty much its a white fabric and the color of the logo is burned/smoked onto it. They look bad.
They are badly heat pressed on. And easily peel off.
So how well have they held up 5 years later?
THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THE ADIDAS ONES ARE THEY ARE SMALL..! I want something that is not going to be tight. i am a big 6'4 300 reebok ones run small as well. the fanatics are a lot bigger in size..
Does Fanatics Team hoodies Run Small Or True To Size ?
Loving your videos! I’m in the market for a jersey and couldn’t decide between adidas or fanatics but this made me realize that adidas is worth it. If I’m 6’0 170lbs what size do you think I would be in adidas?
Probably 52 would be a good size.
Post2Post thanks so much!
I need help I was told if my boyfriend wears an xxl in fanatics I should get him a 56 in adidas but it’s a lil bit of a snugger fit. Is it a huge difference to wear I should get him a 60?
I have a Kadri & Kessel Reebok and Martin & Tavares Adidas and I love them. I am not a fan of the Fanatics, they feel and look cheaper and of lesser quality.
I bought my son 2 fanatics jerseys.....a Vegas jersey & a Sharks jersey......the sharks one was very cheap, ironed on logo......the Vegas one is one of the nicest jerseys I've seen....almost 100% the same as the Adidas.....even the logo...the logo on the Vegas Fanatics wasn't iron, it was stitched on and the gold on the jersey is awesome.....the sharks jersey was a big disappointment, as I had never bought or seen a fanatics jersey & didn't know that some of them are ironed on and cheap....the jersey itself is nice, if only the logo was stitched.
I feel like fans who only want 1 should get a fanatics and series collectors and people who play hockey could use it should get addidas

Go with your own name to be unique!
Getting your own name is a major jersey foul
I just got my first Fanatics jersey as a gift. I do really like the material Fanatics uses for their jersey but the logo and number material, along with the stitching, just seem wrong. My biggest complaint is the numbers. They are noticeably wrong colors. The flyers jersey should be orange, they are red. I wouldn't ever spend my own money on a Fanatics jersey.

I just bought a Koho Stars jersey, how does that brand stack up against the new stuff? (Adidas, Reebok, etc.)
It's pretty old so it's not really comparable
If you're a Blackhawks fan getting an authentic is a MUST. Chicago is the only team in the NHL that has chain-stitched logos, and they're beautiful on the authentics. When you go for the replicas, you get those heat-pressed ugly logos that look horrible. Don't even get me started on the Chinese knockoffs. To each his own though.
If someone wore an xl in their clothes, but wanted to wear a fanatics jersey over their hoodies would they get an xl or size up do you think?

Does the adidas and fanatics jersey fit the same?
Addias doesn't own Fanatics, Fanatics is a website that sells NHL, NFL and etc sports gear
