That's what confused me. I know you and your collection, and "replace" doesn't seem like a valid description (absent something fairly unusual causing damage)"Replace" you say?I bought one to replace the old one.
Well, maybe "add to" as you know me... May have to reposition some things...
Of course "re-arrange" is second nature for you.
It boggles my mind that the U does such a poor job of offering up replica sweaters - especially when they absolutely NAIL one like the skating Goldy and it's clear that the fan reaction on SM is off the charts positive. Maybe it's similar at other programs for hockey?
The "U" has been an absolute cesspool with merchandise the last 10-15 years. It's embarrassing for a college like Minnesota. Goldy's Lockeroom use to be great, but the stores are becoming fewer and fewer and less and less Gophers merch. Plus, the "U" sold their souls to Fanatics, which is utter garbage.
Credit where credit is due, they sell the New Jerseys in the store at the arena. Sid they’d have the 3rd next year.
The complaint is that they're replicas, and not really faithful replicas at that. They're better than they were a few years ago, but still not really all that good. Also, the colors of a lot of the other merch have been way off, but that's starting to get better now, too (but still not very good).
What a lot of us here for sure would like would be to get authentic jerseys. But, between Nike not wanting to make them, and the U somehow afraid they wouldn't sell, they're impossible to get.
I found these at a second hand store this weekend. It's weird that they have a Kessel figurine as one of the 3 choices. This was well before NIL and after he had left. They were made in 2017. Wonder what kind of royalty, if any, Kessel got. They are officially licensed by the NCAA.

Does anyone have one of these? Are they really jerseys? They just look like shirts.

They are sublimated aka graphics just printed on the material, no stitching. A lot of money for something like that.
I know and that's like 30 bucks off. It might be computer generated but it does look like body paint! I'm just looking for an actual jersey not a shirt or sweatshirt.
Kids size, $100, a lot of folks would be expecting a stitched K1.
