    its fine…its a jersey, its meant to be worn while playing hockey

    they have tiny holes so you can get air flow
    and you dont die of heat when your playing

    It is suitable, but you do still have a slight risk of messing up the jesrey in same way or form. A skim may cut/rip or someone’s tape from their stick may mark it up, etc. I wouldn’t wear it, so you don’t potentially ‘injure” it and so it stays fresh for when you want to wear it out and about. Most jerseys now have them if not all do have the small holes for light weight and for ventillation.

    yes, thats why its a jersey, not a shirt

  • Kimmy (QOP):

    I have worn replicas many times to play . No biggie. Jerseys of all can and do rip at times. That happens. I usually wind up with puck marks on the jerseys more than holes . They are very durable

    it’s fine, but the constant washing form dong that makes the logo rough up on the edges. Won’t look as nice, but won’t be terrible either. And it’s not a mesh like this, http://hottydog.com/library/RedFootballJersey.jpg
    But an air knit, like this:

    The fabric is a air knit, which is meant to be worn on the ice. Not all do, but most do. The air knit helps keep you cooler. That was the huge complaint some players had about the RBK edge jerseys- they didn’t have them. It got hot, and they went back to the air knit.

    What’s better even if if you don’t already have the jersey is to buy an uncrested NHL jersey. These are the Authentics minus the fight belt and logos, and are on sale most places.

    But the Replicas are authentic minus reinforced stitching, and fight straps. And the logos are glued and not sewed. New (RBK edge) are made of different fabric even if, those aren’t as excellent, the’re hotter. Fit’s nice even if.

    Small answer: Yes, they’re fine, The CCM replicas are fantastic and the RBK Edge replicas are a small radiator, but still fine.

    Jerseys are no different than clothes, even with the best care they will show cryptogram of wear and tear over time. Otherwise why did you buy it?
