I know this is a long shot but I am looking to find this beautiful jersey. XL/54 or bigger. I know it is rare to find one in the wild and some people have painted a donkey and glued on a horn and called it a unicorn ( cheap knockoff) to cash in on its scarcity.

They’re on ebay occasionally. I bought a size 52 Makar a couple months ago
I kick myself for not buying these when they first came oit every time I see them.
The blue color is how you tell if they’re real or not. The authentic are the darker blue. Saw one on eBay for about $800 a few days ago.
You and me both. They sold out crazy fast. Why they’re not making more is beyond me.
These are #1, COLORADO red across the body #2, and 2001 black pants #3 best uni’s. Imho
The second hand market is the only place you’ll find them. eBay, mercari, Facebook marketplace, etc. but be prepared to shell out $500+ for legit ones.
There’s a Makar on eBay in your size right now!… for $888.88!!!
I want one of these too but the prices are pure pain.
I hate to say it but it may be worth going the knockoff route. I have a Chinese one which is great quality given the price. Like $50 Canadian

I have a real one that I bought from AA when they were in production and it really sucks that they skimped so heavily on the quality. The numbers and nameplate lettering being cheap vinyl is so disappointing. I still love it though.
Be careful there are a lot of bad fakes out there. Like someone said look at the colors, the blue and burgundy are darker on the real ones and lighter on a lot of the fakes. Also I see a lot of MacKinnons and Landeskogs that have the wrong font on the number two.
Humble brag…but buying a Makar jersey that season was a bit of a gamble (he looked super promising but didn’t yet have the bonafides that he has now)….one of the best decisions I ever made. I CHERISH that fucking thing.
Plus my mom’s side of the family is from Quebec so have some actual roots there as well…I LOVE this design
You could put an ISO on r/hockeyjerseys and also look there for when someone has decided to sell them. They cost a ton though. I have a Landy, Mack and Makar (2 46s and a 50) because they’re smaller they’re not worth quite as much but given they have HA customization could sell them each for ~550 USD (but never would)
