What would be the rationale for officially announcing the jerseys only a week or two before the event (especially if they've already been shipped to retailers)? That'd make it impossible for fans travelling to the game (like myself) to buy a jersey and receive it before the game. Unless they're hoping to press more fans into buying the jerseys at the game itself?

Couple of possibilities. Marketing calendar could be wanting to focus entirely on All-Star and then do Stadium Series pushes once that’s over. Or could be that historically Stadium Series jerseys haven’t sold well enough prior to the game that it doesn’t matter how far in advance they release them. But I’d definitely recommend that if you’re going to the game you purchase in person. Shipping from Fanatics is notoriously tricky.
@UntimelyDeath0310 ай бұрын
@@icethetics Ah, I especially buy the focus on pushing the ASG stuff, which would be over 2 weeks before the Stadium Series. If they wanted to push those ASG jerseys they should have made them less awful though haha (I appreciate trying something new and wacky, but it seems to be a very resounding swing and a miss for the vast majority of people). Having an ASG draft also makes customized jerseys tricky. I’m assuming the NHL will just sell player names on the assigned division color for simplicity, which in many cases will be different than the color actually worn by the player on ice for the drafted team they play on, which matters to some people. I’ll definitely buy the Stadium Series jersey in person if they don’t heat press the names/numbers (which has prevented me from buying Adidas jerseys from the Devils Den at Prudential in the past and, if I’m not mistaken, has happened for other events like last year’s ASG).

I find these jerseys horrendous, but then again I appreciate I am not the target audience for them. Through its collaboration with Bieber, it's clear the league is catering to younger, likely more casual viewers. The stripes going down the sleeve, at a moment when 80s style tracksuits are enjoying a comeback in mainstream fashion, seems too "hype" to be coincidental, especially worn during an event that is prone to short-format highlight-reels easy to share and digest on social media. All of this being said and understood, it does not take away from the fact these crests look like the symbol indicating a challenge in a 2000s era snowboarding video game

This is probably gonna be a hottake comment but I like those jerseys! Now I don’t think they would ever work as a teams uniform but they don’t have to. It’s a league wide event. Jerseys can’t be to similar to any team jerseys, they can’t get too throwback or futuristic either. Or I guess they could but then again those „vibes“ are covered by other NHL events. So they have to find their place in there somewhere. And I actually really like the the bold colors, the (mostly) one color look, the somewhat comic-y crest design and the details on the sleeves with those stripes and stars. I also think the numbers are done in fun lettering. To me those jerseys certainly didn’t reinvent the wheel but they’re fun! (Just like that turnaround Toronto jersey with the comic-y maple leaf was fun!) My favorite is the blue one but I have to say: the yellow one is too much yellow and I think it’s sad they made one white instead of going with a fourth bold color like green or purple or something. I also have to add: I’m not a fan of the name tags. The tag itself is alright but all lowercase lettering is just weird to me.
