What is the difference between replica, premier, and authentic hockey jerseys?

Question

basically, replica means cheap look alike, something for an average fan to wear to the game that wont cost a fortune. i must warn you. my replica redwing and maple leaf jerseys both front team emblems curl. its because the were steam printed on.

Premier, higher quality, lighter, but still cheep enough for fans. but the front logo is actuall stitching, that will not curl up and ruin the jersey. it has higher quiality faberic and more comfortable feel.

and authentic, my detroit redwings Nick Lidstrom jersey is authentic. it is the most expensive, but most comfortable thing ive ever worn in my life. the reason authentics are made is because of the demand of "what the pros wear" so its made from stretchable faborick that is very light and durrable, it is quad sewed which makes it nearly impossible to rip. its water proof to prevent added weight of sweat and water in the jersey, it has a fight strap which is manditory for all adult league jerseys. and the emblems and names and numbers are actually apart of the jersey, not stitched on after.

Replica Hockey Jerseys

Answer 3

Authentic Hockey Jerseys

Answer 4

Authentic are to the exact specifications as the ones worn by the players, Premier are sort of semi-authentic...they aren't to the same specs as the on-field (or authentic) but they are close with sewn on name and number (I believe), and the replica are the ones you would wear during a backyard game...all the graphics and numbers are screen printed on the jersey rather than sewn on. The replica are the least expensive and the authentic are the most with the premier being in the middle.

Answer 5

the different between replica jerseys and authentic hockey jerseys is they are from different factory.

Some of replica jerseys also have OEM equipment to make the jerseys, they look like same.
