The IceJerseys Customization Difference

There are a few other websites and traditional hockey shops out there that may offer jersey customization - but not all customization is the same. At IceJerseys.com, we take tremendous pride in our tradition of offering the best jersey customization available anywhere - and we have thousands of satisfied customers since 1999 to prove it. In fact, many of those customers regularly extol the virtues of our superior jersey customization services within our own IceJerseys Bulletin Boards (feel free to join and ask questions if you like).

Customization Confusion
The problem is, for the average consumer it isn’t always so evident what you get for your dollars when you order customization for your hockey jersey. To set the record straight, when you shop at IceJerseys, you can be assured that whether you order customization on a new Rbk EDGE Authentic, Premier Replica, Youth Premier Replica, or the classic 6100 Authentic or 550 Replica jerseys, you will always receive the same authentic pro-style customization. That means everything is done to match exactly what is worn by the players on the ice.

The IceJerseys Authentic Pro Customization Commitment
When you order customization from IceJerseys, you can be assured you will receive:

• 100% Authentic Hand-Sewn Customization
• 100% Authentic Pro Twill Materials
• 100% Authentic Pro Fonts
• 100% NHL & NHLPA Licensed Customization
• 100% Precision & Accuracy
• 100% Fabric (not twill!) Name Bars (if applicable/available)
• 100% Authentic Customization as Worn On-Ice by the Players
• 100% Satisfaction Guarantee

100% Authentic Hand-Sewn Customization
All of our customization is hand cut and sewn by skilled sewers experienced in the unique ‘Z’-stitch technique required for authentic jersey decoration. All twill numbers and name bars are sewn to your jersey. No glue, no heat-seal, no heat press, no screen printing – no shortcuts!

100% Authentic Pro Twill Materials
All twill used in the customization of your jersey is 100% authentic in color and texture. If a team uses Glacier or Sparkle twills, you can be sure your jersey will have that very same twill.

100% Authentic Pro Fonts
We only use officially licensed NHL fonts as provided by the NHL. Even though there are cases where some teams may have discrepancies or inconsistencies with the official font, we do what we can to make sure your font is a perfect match.

100% NHL & NHLPA Licensed Customization
All jerseys bearing the name of NHL players must be produced by a licensed NHLPA customizer – and we are proud to be using officially licensed customizers for all of our player jerseys.

100% Precision & Accuracy
We make the extra effort to make sure your jersey is done as ordered – including correct spelling, placement, inclusion of ‘A’ or ‘C’ when applicable, removal of loose threads. We know it is important for your jersey to be done right, and we do our very best to make sure it is.

100% Fabric (not twill) Name Bars (if applicable/available)
There is no better indication that your jersey is not authentic than the use of a twill name bar. IceJerseys uses whatever is used by the team (which is either a fabric name bar, or none at all – depending on the team and availability).

100% Authentic Customization as Worn On-Ice by the Players
All aspects of our customization are geared towards insuring that your jersey looks just like those worn on the ice by the pros. Others may take shortcuts to drop the price at the expense of quality and authenticity, but at IceJerseys, we know that real hockey fans would prefer quality and authenticity to a cheap imitation. Whether we are customizing a current NHL jersey, or a jersey from another league or era we will make sure our customization is done as it is (or was) worn by the players. Note: For some older jerseys, we may ask you to provide photos if we are unable to confirm the customization style.

100% Satisfaction Guarantee
Even though we take every step possible to ensure your customized jersey exceeds your expectations, there is the rare possibility that our customization just isn’t up to snuff. If that is the case, and we have made an error on your jersey – or the workmanship is sub-par, we will do whatever we can to make things right. This would likely include repairing the jersey in a timely manner and covering any additional shipping costs that may be incurred to return your jersey.

As you can see The IceJerseys Customization Difference gives you peace of mind that your jersey will always be done right, no matter what!

A Word About The Competition
We have had a few inquiries from customers asking us why IceJerseys.com charges from $54 to $79 for customization (depending on how many layers of twill a team uses on their jersey), while some competitors only charge $55 (on a Premier Replica Jersey). At first glance, it looks like the competition has a sweet deal on customization… but what do you get for your $55? Unfortunately it is far from authentic customization – and this is not necessarily so evident. If you carefully read the small print in the features description, you will see that your Premier Replica jersey will be customized with “Single layer screen-printed twill personalized name and number heat pressed on the back”. What does this mean? If you order a jersey that is worn on-ice with multiple layers of twill (such as the Pittsburgh Penguins Dark Jersey, or the Montreal Canadiens Dark Jersey), you will have one-color twill, with the additional trim colors simply screen-printed on top. The twill will only be heat-pressed to your jersey, not sewn.

We understand that for some, the $29 savings is worth the sacrifice of authenticity – and we have no problem with that. But we also know that the majority of hockey fans want their jersey to look just like the real thing - even if it may cost a few dollars more. For those who buy customization from one of our competitors with the belief that they are getting authentic pro sewn customization like we offer at IceJerseys, there just might be an unpleasant surprise when their jersey arrives. At IceJerseys, we have built a reputation over the years by consistently delivering top quality, professional, hand-sewn jersey customization. Take a look at the images below and see the difference for yourself.
