Jerseys Unite Teams, Fans, and Communities
Can jerseys unite a team? A community? A country? You bet they can. With the historical playoff run coming to an end for the Winnipeg Jets, the ‘Whiteout’ also came to a close for another year. The Whiteout, for those who haven’t heard, is Winnipeg’s unique tradition where virtually every fan agrees to wear the whitest […]
Playoff Patches
I’m a little disappointed with the teams in the playoffs this year. Not because the Jets didn’t finish first in the division or that not all the Canadian teams even made it in. I’m disappointed because there’s only ONE team in the playoffs wearing a patch! I’ve mentioned in the past how I’m a big […]
What’s in a name?

Teams these days don’t have just one star player. Rather, they have a few standouts who excel for various reasons […]

So I thought I’d share with you what it is that makes us unique. We are coming at team jersey customization from two important approaches: World class jersey […]
Kiss Cutting with Keener
Kiss cutting (AkA reverse layers) is a really elegant (and cool) way of displaying numbers or letters on a jerseys. Most often when team’s use multiple layers for their numbers they use a technique called ‘Stacking’. The dominant colour is laid on top of the other 3 layers. In the photo below, the white layer […]
Keener Jerseys and the Charity Jerseys for Pro Teams
The Keener Jerseys Charity Jersey program started up in 2017 with the Nashville Predators Foundation and the Nashville Fallen Firefighters Foundation Association. Keener Jerseys created a unique ‘turnout jacket’ style jersey for each member of the Predators. The jerseys were then signed and auctioned off with all funds raised shared between the local charities. The First Responders […]

Hypnotized By My First Jersey
I can remember precisely the first time I saw a customized jersey. I was six years old and in a mall with my mom. In front of me was another kid, around my age, sitting on his dad’s shoulders. He was wearing a blue Oilers jersey with Gretzky embroidered on the back. I couldn’t take […]
RIPKEN’S 8
Numbers are funny, and I’m not even a mathematician. All teams have their distinct fonts that have subtleties that someone in my position needs to be on the lookout for. For example, where exactly do A’s, C’s and patches go on a team’s jersey? How far apart should numbers be? And is there an upside […]
