I stumbled across this while looking for a Moose jersey in celebration of winning the division. Let me start that I know fanatics is untrustworthy, but I can’t seem to verify if this is an actual Adidas authentic jersey and not the fanatics attempt at a replica. Any help is appreciated!

It’s probably legit. I got a Mikko signed jersey from Fanatics awhile back and they sent me a certificate of authentication with the jersey.
I will say be prepared for a lot of random phones calls from Fantastics about future Mikko jersey signing events and signed merchandise. lol
Is it actually signed? Otherwise that’s a freaking insanely overpriced jersey, authentic or not.
Yes, that is an Adidas or at least what’s shown is. The fanatics brand one would have a jock tag and no fight strap. I guess it depends how much you trust them but they’re authenticating that it’s a real signature. I doubt they would screw around with fake signatures when they have the league contract
Those are some awful pictures but for the price I think it’s legit. At the very least keep your receipts and if you don’t get what you were promised they will refund you. Maybe ask the people at r/hockeyjerseys.
Wait, what’s the deal with fanatics being untrustworthy? I just bought two replicas jerseys last week.
Fanatics has been the official online store for the NHL for a while now. You’ll see NHL Shop, Fanatics, Lids, etc use the same online presence. They’re advertising in the item name and screenshot as Adidas so I would trust it as such. I’ve gotten autographed pucks from Fanatics, which come with a holographic sticker and QR code identifying authenticity.

The problem with fanatics is you might get a #92 McLandeskog with a Tampa Bay logo then good luck trying to reach an actual person to get it fixed!
“Authentic” adizero yes
Fanatics offers poor quality
