Good win for the season opener.
I stopped by pantherland during the intermission to pick up a new fanatics premium jersey. On the way to checkout, I noticed the name plate was coming off.
Is the name plate supposed to be stitched on, or heat pressed?
Correct me if I'm wrong. Addidas Indos name plates are stitched on?
Does pantherland acquire a bunch of blanks and then heat press players names?
is Authentic Pro the only jersey that's completely stitched?

No way!
And this is the “premium” version?!
The Adidas Primegreen jerseys were all heat pressed. I got a Tkachuk Primegreen last year and a Reinhart Premium last night. Other that the shoulder dimples, I don’t see any difference in quality
Got my barkov one and I love it 👍
Did you see if they were selling any of the Authentic/Pro ones in Pantherland?
My Adidas primegreen was completely stitched. The only thing Heat pressed was the patches. (“A”, Stanley Cup, and La Croix)
Say it all the time in this sub: never buy the pre-heat-pressed or pre-stitched stuff from the arena (or their third party service at the arena) or Fanatics or any other large company. Always buy blank and send to Exclusive Pro Sports or Hockey Authentic or another reputable customizer.
Saw this happen last night at the arena to a white pro fanatics kit. The staff quickly fixed it and it came out looking good. I heat pressed an Adidas Indo last night and it’s holding up well
How much do the premium jerseys cost there?
FWIW, I have a Montour Adidas jersey that is less than two years old and the same thing happened. After last night, I’m hoping it can get it to happen to my Tarasenko jersey so I can have them put Greer’s name on that.
They will all be pressed from the arena, guaranteed! Best bet is to buy a blank and send it out to Kevin at Island_Jerseys on IG or another reputable source for customization. Nice work!!!
My Barkov away jersey (Fanatic Premium) came from the team shop is fully stitched, except the AutoNation patch was heat-pressed.
The cheaper way to do it is to heat press it. That’s what you’re going to find at Pantherland and in the arena. They do it this way because it’s way quicker and easier to produce name/number jerseys on the spot for both off the rack sales and customer requests, so they just order in blank jerseys and then the numbers and name plates and make the specific player jerseys based on demand.
The real proper way to do it is to stitch it on. You’re going to pay out the teeth on an already expensive jersey to get one like this vs the heat press though.
I had this happen recently but the letters were coming off. That was after just one time through the wash following all care instructions
I’ll stick with vintage lol
