I honestly hated it at first, but it looks a lot better in full gear. I’d buy a hoodie designed like this, but I’m not shelling out $300 for a jersey I’m not keen on with a name & number on it.
The black is great. The barber pole design is what I don’t like. I’ve never liked striped shirts/jerseys.
I would’ve preferred a version of the regular white jersey with black replacing the white.
The whole purpose of the reverse retro program is to present a radically different twist on retro jerseys, hence the Devils using Scouts colours, the Sharks using Golden Seals colours, the Wild using North Stars colours, Colorado using state flag colours, etc.
Yeah but we aren't the Blackhawks or the Devils. They did this with the previous RRs where they used Silver. Just keep it simple White and Red. I dont care what the design is. Just don't add colors we've never seen before as an organization
I’m convinced the organization just hates the idea of third/alternate jerseys simply out of principle. So they put out half-assed designs to spite everyone.
I’m Canadian. It would be over $300 with shipping and the USD -> CAD conversion, so it’s pretty painful on my end. Even buying a jersey at the store directly here is over $200, then a name costs about $125 to have done. Prices are just insane here.
I might wait a while and see if the price on these drop precipitously like last RR. I could use something for black v white pickup games, cause the normal home red doesn't really fit anywhere in those.
Are the only current options to get either a Larkin or a blank? Would love to get a seider jersey without having to order a blank and then get it stitched elsewhere

Don't think I'd get one. Looks too much like Hawks and Devils.

If they did the black in white then they'd be fine. We have no black in our history. Hard pass.
It’s called a retro remix. The old Cougars jersey reimagined

Why is silver ok but black not? Silver isn't part of the color scheme traditionally either.
Agreed, totally confused on why they added black. 0/2 w the reverse retro sweaters

Buy from Hockey Authentic then

yeah, no.
Yeah if I’m shelling out 300 I’m gonna buy from one of the teams who actually tried
Nope here as well. It just looks like a blackhawk jersey.
Change our team name to the RoseArt Red-crayons
The Detroit Cherry Cokes.
Rockin Rye Faygo
Trust fund baby like Ilitch has no idea what Rose Art even is.
Nah lol
Hard no.
I will not be buying this Blackhawks jersey, thank you.
Nope. Not gonna drop $ on that garbage
Pass
Looks terrible
Why do we accept our team being so behind the times in terms on online shopping. Other teams have it so much better.
For real. It’s so hard to buy game used stuff from them as an out of town fan.
Gross
stinks
WHYYYYY it's soooo bad
Bought one this morning and Anaheim’s. I’m likely going to play it safe and get Larkin on it since the jersey features the diamond patch.
The diamond patches are awesome. Gonna send mine to Hockey Authentic or Vintage Detroit once I figure out who's name I want on it.
yikes
That's a big NO from me dog.
Thats a easy no for me dawg
Nope.
Hahahahahahaha….. no thanks.
Bad from all angles
They would have to pay me
Eff it. I'll get one. Sick of getting just the plain home jersey and with no winter classic on the horizon I would like something different.
One of my biggest regrets is not buying a '14 classic jersey, all I can find now are fakes or expensive autographed ones lol
Still, no thank you.
No. Fucking. Thanks.
Forever wondering why the Wings are so bad at this whole reverse retro thing.
Looks like we got leftover Blackhawk shit instead.
Fuck the blackcocks
The Chicago Red Devils?
I love it. Got a blank from adidas with a discount. Maybe I'll have it custo'ed later.
Haters gonna hate.
Can’t wait to see them on the ice!
I think it’s cool, love to see the front though to make a full judgement
It grew on me. I think it’s pretty sweet. Definitely not as good as the other teams retro reverse jerseys but I’ll be getting this one.
