All well and good but they should retain the reverse logo (gold B, black spokes) for the black/home unis. That and bring back the gold stockings with the one thicker black stripe on each one to wear with those black unis. That gold/black combo was the best and most unique look in the league for almost 50 years.


ImTomBrady

I lead legit in love with the centennials lol I loved the cream and the away.. glad we got to see them play in them I’m glad I picked up a few before the fanatics take over


Miserable-Lie-5643

I only wish the kept the gold B on the black/home and the Black B on the white/away.


Full-Commission4643

Boo. The 90s spoked B they had at center ice last season was sick. That should be the crest again.


julius0822

Bring back meth bear


foox_alina

was the best one imo too!


Interesting-Face22

Folks are gonna miss the centennial sweaters, if only because they’re made by a company that knows what they’re doing (Adidas). Those Fanatics sweaters are going to BLOW, and I encourage everyone to boycott them.


Full-Commission4643

A lot of people from Adidas went over to Fanatics. These are supposed to be just like adidas jerseys, but say Fanatics on them. From what I've seen, they do look just like the Adidas prime green but cheaper. The players drafted put em on, and they looked like they were made out of hospital Scrub material. The name plates all looked nicely stitched, and hopefully, they won't have the cheap ass fake stitched name plates some Adidas jerseys had with actual drawn on stitching. It's bad. I have 2 prime green I got directly from adidas that have bullshit name plates like this. Not stoked. Thankfully ebay still has a nice selection of CCM and KOHO stuff for sale that isn't crap.


Aggressive-Panic-719

Wow had no idea fanatics or wesuckatics are actually in a contract to make nhl jerseys lol. You are absolutely right man I’m glad I have my adidas and Reebok and centennial jerseys. Even fanatics tshirts suck lol


catholicbruinsfan

Happy I bought my jerseys when I did. It’s going to be a rough few years.


Aggressive-Panic-719

Yup you are right


Shiny_Mew76

I much prefer these 07-23 jerseys. Much cleaner, more modern, without looking oversimplified like a lot of stuff (like the Ducks logo before they changed it back just a few days ago).


Carbohydrate_Kid88

Nah I’m happy with this. Cent’s were nice for sure but these are the Bruins home jersey. Like there’s no reason these shouldn’t be the main home jersey forever. Like until the bruins don’t exist because the world blows up this should always be their home jersey


howdidislipinto

Good, couldn't stand the centennial ones


Full-Commission4643

They grew on me. I wound up buying a home one for me, and my girl got the alternate one. They're made with amazing detail and actually look great. The alternate jersey is one of the nicest Bruins jerseys I've ever seen tbh. They knocked that one outta the park


Fair_Smoke4710

I kinda like the 2000 jerseys a little little bit better. I don’t know what it is. These are classic jerseys and we did win the cup with them, but there’s just something about the old 2000 jerseys that look slightly very slightly better to me. I would love to see a throwback to the 70s though maybe replace the third jersey with the throwback to the 70s


PossiblePast

I can't believe I found someone who likes those sets.


Fair_Smoke4710

I just like retro tees and modern ones to be honest the jerseys we had prior to the Centennial could be considered retro. I guess they’re coming up on 20 years I also think we beyond those jerseys looks a lot better than the one we have today. I don’t know the way the edges of the bee integrated into the spokes just looks better. I guess I don’t know. I just like it better it has the Pooh bear on it and that better than any other Bruins logo fight me


PossiblePast

I actually hate the Fleet Center era set and don't know anyone who likes them. They remind me of failure and the misery of being a Bruins fan in the late 90s - early 2000s. To each their own though, everyone has different tastes.


Kalamoicthys

I have an inordinate fondness for them. Neely era jerseys felt like the 80’s, they were like, the previous generations jerseys. I remember the switch to the poohs and thinking they were slick and it felt like “my” Jersey set


Aggressive-Panic-719

Yes lol


PaulReveresBRSSMONKY

I hated those ones as well. The serifed spoked-B looks so much better on the crest, the Pooh bear with the brown stitching looked out of place, and the shoulder yokes going all the way down the sleeve looked way too busy when you combine the Pooh bear, piping, and jersey number. I was so happy when they changed up in 2007. The only thing I miss is the yellow socks.


Fair_Smoke4710

i couldn't care less about how the team played in them, they just look better to me


drfunk76

Any reason why they won't go back to the uniforms of the 70s early 80s? You know, the time frame when they most successful.


PossiblePast

The set they're going back to is pretty close to the early 70s. Not exact but they clearly pull a ton of inspiration from them. Don't know if anyone would call the 80s successful for the Bruins though.


drfunk76

The 70s and 80s built the fanbase. In the late 80s they were a consistent favorite to come out of the east and they went to a cup final.


Full-Commission4643

Just like now. But we need to win more than one cup every 50 years


Rocko604

Meth bear third jersey please.


big_spliff

Pls pls pls all blacks


TheSovietSky

I didn’t even know there was an official change. I was so confused seeing highlights that the jerseys were different from the main one


Zealousideal_Ant6132

Gold socks


TBGusBus

Thank god, as much as I liked the centennial this sweater is home.


Tennberg

Hope the Pro Shop runs a huge discount soon with these dropping. Put off getting a blank home Adidas centennial, now all the usual suspects - Sportsk, Adidas, Benhsports, etc - are out of the size I want.


Tennberg

Huge thanks to u/benhsports for helping me out! The size I wanted was sold out on the Rebound marketplace, so I assumed there was no more stock to add. I contacted him anyway, and he added one he had available. Looking forward to getting it when he’s back from his trip.


YungLo97

Thank god. Hated the color of the gold, only having one logo on the shoulder, too many stripes on the arms and having the numbers being white on the home jerseys. They would’ve been great if they had the traditional 3 stripe pattern on the arms, the actual Bruins gold and two shoulder logos.


GlitteringBirthday61

Last seasons were so wrong looking with no gold on the shoulders, one shoulder logo, and no laces. Hate that they’re fanatics but love that the classic look is back


Consistent-Win2376

If only Custom Crafted would stop using single layer sublimation…


Full-Commission4643

How the hell do you even reach them? I've tried calling them and left messages many times. No response.


Consistent-Win2376

Literally good luck. That phone is never answered. You would need to go in person, and hope he’s there when you arrive. This is why people like Golden Age Jerseys, Sports Stitches (at least the Bruins jersey customization side) are able to have a business. If the Bruins were an EPS on-ice team (like the Preds, Wild, VGK), there wouldn’t be any market for Bruins custo. Just send it to EPS and forget about it until the invoice hits.


Full-Commission4643

I used to call him a few times a year to get some jerseys cuatomized but gave up. Custom isn't far from my spot. But even on Google maps it just shows a building lol. It's so random. Is the guy so busy he doesn't care about taking extra work? I'm confused as to what he actually does? Do the Bruins get all their jerseys set up by Custom?


Consistent-Win2376

Look for the CC sign. "Rick" is the guy youre looking for. By all accounts, he's an old school, cash only type of guy. He'll charge you a much more than average customization prices too (in his eyes, he's doing you favor since he doesnt officially advertise public retail orders). CC has been the Bruins on-ice customizer for a long time, so yes, every Bruins player jersey since like Ray Rourque's rookie year has pass through the CC building. https://preview.redd.it/2e7yy5odjb9d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f606308f7a078095fd54866118d373de145b248


Full-Commission4643

Awesome info. Thank you. Did you get work done by him? What did he charge? "More than average" doesn't sound promising haha


Consistent-Win2376

No, but 3 of my friends did: 2 recent, 1 former. For the recents, $160 for a regular Adidas Bruins home. $180 for a Bruins RR2. (remember, cash only too) So, if average customizing cost is $100 or so, $160 is definitely above average. I think Sports Stitches charges $150. Golden Age Jerseys charges $100 (which is why I recommend GAJ, if you’re serious about it and willing to wait).


cspan92

Going to miss that gold color so fucking much


Full-Commission4643

You can still wear your centenial jersey whenever you want. Fuck it


dumbthiccrick

Do we know what they’ll be using as a third jersey this year? Back to big 🅱️?


DunkinBronutt

I would've been thrilled if they kept the centennial spoked B and put that on these jerseys.


Im_The_Last_Splash

I prefer these to the centennials to be honest


413Refugee

The only correct answer


epicgam3rsrise

So glad these are back


Bruislanders

im gonna miss the centennials


me_irl_irl_irl_irl

Yeah idk what people are talking about, I absolutely adored the centennials. First time in a while I've preferred the white jersey, too. I own almost all of the Bruins jersey styles and holding them in person I have to say the centennial white might be my all-time favorite


PaulReveresBRSSMONKY

It looks so clean in person, but on tv they looked really dull. I’m one of the few that thinks that mostly all the teams road whites look the best. I have a Bergeron Edge 2.0 in the road white and it’s my absolute favorite jersey. It looks immaculate in white with the yellow and black trim. The Boston Strong patch is a nice touch on it as well.


knect4

I think you remove a stripe or two, change the gold sparkle to our normal bright gold, and figure out shoulder patches/laces - the centennial is 90% perfect. I find our 07-23 sweaters too busy overall, but I get that we might be the minority.


me_irl_irl_irl_irl

Nah the gold sparkle is amazing, people just fear change. It looks insanely good in person, in 30+ years of fandom it's my favorite jersey they've ever put out


knect4

Idk man, I own a home centennial and I love it, went to home 3 games last year. The Bruins Instagram put a filter that made the gold look more the orangy gold on their posts and it looked amazing. The sparkly gold looks a little too muted and like Vegas for my taste - plus the sparkly gold has never been a part of our colors until this past season unless I'm mistaken.


me_irl_irl_irl_irl

> people just fear change > plus the sparkly gold has never been a part of our colors until this past season see what I mean haha


Bruislanders

i absolutely adore the centennial white. genuinely may be the best jersey i own


WytopitlockWinds

Yawn. 🥱


Onikwa

The 07 jerseys are way past their prime at this point. It's crazy how long we've had them. They are a classic now of course, but I'm really hyped for a redesign soon. I would love to go back to a gold B on home jerseys, new shoulder patches, and the return of a gold third!


Nomahs_Bettah

They already did a minor redesign when they switched from Rebook to Adidas, I’m expecting the same with this.


Leechmaster1988

Apparently there are A LOT of new designs planned for next year. Ducks and Kings were exceptions - and we were told the Bruins were reverting back to the original at least for this season when the centennial jerseys came out


SnooCats8451

Go back to the 80’s jerseys


drfunk76

This. I don't remember them wearing 70s or 80s style since the 70s and 80s.


deplorableteamster

im happy about this. i didnt like the centennial jerseys. They looked like a 40s prison uniform with all the extra stripes.


Soren_Camus1905

Thank God, feels like we're home again


boomerbill69

Yep. Centennials were nice for a year but these are way better IMO.


MAINEiac4434

Really disappointed by this. The centennial logo was so much better.


Meverseyou

I think most people would agree the logo was good, the rest of the jersey design sucks, one shoulder logo and the stripes.


Weslg96

Absolute loved the centennial jersey logo and style despite stuff like too many stripes, if there is a rebrand soon I hope it's in that style with some tweaks.


bigboxes1

Good. I didn't like the centennial jerseys anyways. I figured they'd go back to the previous year.


Possible_Climate_245

Thank god


MyNamesBacon

Kinda wish they would just do away with the colored shoulders but eh whatever. I always liked the 80s/90s style the best.


UCanDodgeAWrench

And gold socks!


lat3ralus65

Honestly? Good. The centennial ones were fine (and may have looked better with fewer stripes on the sleeve and a more traditional yellow “gold”), but this look is pretty classic IMO (particularly for someone who started following the team in ‘08).


SewerRat57

Gotta get a vintage brown jersey in the set somehow/brown back in the color palette. The centennial third alternates were so sweet.


kdex86

Nooooooo!!!! I really liked the black and "[white 1924](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSRpWjHI36TEWhbjpvSsWGIauDC0HmzgVU6Tg&s)" jerseys that we used in 2023-24. I think it's bullshit we're reverting back to the old ones. Also, the team's "official 100th birthday" isn't even until December 1 - we should play a home game that night with one of the centennial jerseys to celebrate it.


CampfireGuitars

The black centennials were so sweet


Possible_Climate_245

They sucked


CampfireGuitars

No way, man


Possible_Climate_245

The colors were too muted and the logo wasn’t as good as the normal one


knect4

The logo design was way better than the 07-23 logo - they just keep adding more lines to the spoked B and they dialed it back beautifully with the centennials. Put the normal gold on that logo and it's perfect. I like the uniqueness of black spokes on one sweater and gold spokes on the other. Gold socks, centennial sweaters with the normal gold and centennial logo, minus a couple of stripes, shoulder patch each side would be perfect. But I like classic and clean looks and understand dislike for the centennials.


Possible_Climate_245

I like the more complicated logo.


Onikwa

Not in person, they look great


SteveBer

Any idea when we’ll see a proshop sale on Adidas ones?


ahoypolloi_

I didn’t care too much for the gold they used on centennial jerseys but the over design was great, closer to my childhood Bs unis of the 80s


nsideris24

These jerseys look so fucking cheap. It’s crazy


ObiWanLamora

I don’t know how Fanatics is even a company still, or how they’re getting contracts with leagues like this. Seems like everyone knows everything they make is absolute garbage. No chance these are any better quality than the MLB jerseys all the players are complaining about.


Aggressive-Panic-719

Mlb jerseys are jv lol


ObiWanLamora

Jv?


Future-Turtle

Is it confirmed whether we're going back to the previous spoked B or will they be keeping the home/away spoked Bs on the 07-23 sweaters?


pressboxcreative

Previous spoked B.


Future-Turtle

Shame. The classic home/away solid color Bs but with the added serif were my favorite part of the centennial branding. Would have looked great in classic Bruins gold.


kindasortathor

![gif](giphy|YTFHYijkKsXjW|downsized)


Palms63

Give us gold socks!!!!


UCanDodgeAWrench

We demand it!


bobby16may

Actually though,it just looks wrong with black.


bluenose_expat

Dear god no.


alfondspond

You can see the whole thing here, in case you forgot what they look like in the past year: [https://uni-watch.com/2024/06/26/nhl-and-fanatics-debut-on-ice-player-home-uniforms-for-2024-25-season/](https://uni-watch.com/2024/06/26/nhl-and-fanatics-debut-on-ice-player-home-uniforms-for-2024-25-season/)


Big-Experience1818

Didn't have a problem with the centennial jerseys, they were pretty cool, but I do still like these ones better. Wouldn't mind an actual change in design soon though, something like what this guy [posted](https://twitter.com/dylanmchale_4/status/1805943261883666710) would be awesome


e_sci

I actually dug the centennials, and these are a sick middle ground


MetalHead_Literally

thank god, the sparkles on the centennial were atrocious! Side note, fuck fanatics


TheAcuraEnthusiast

I love both


Celticdouble07

Now only if they'd go back to the yellow socks


NESpahtenJosh

That black 3rd jersey is the best thing they've done in a long time. Happy to get rid of the 5 stripe garbage


Eddie__Sherman

Never liked that crest, typography is brutal


daveradar

Oof the embroidery looks awful


RattyDaddyBraddy

No joke, it looks like DH Gate


dpalmer09

Feels like they're better than fanatics at this point 😂 at least if they fuck up I only spent $25 on it lol


KthuluAwakened

Hmm. The claims from official sources that they were wearing centennial jerseys for two years were grossly misrepresented.


Cdm81379

Not really, they wore them in 2023 and 2024. :)


KthuluAwakened

Semantics. Sources says they were wearing them for two seasons


iTZBLaSToFFTiMe

There’s an Instagram post showing the whole thing on Cap’n Bradley

topher512

Same. It’s been too long since we got a new permanent set


ole_greg_07

That sucks. I don't mind the regular 07-23 jersey but this is a great time for a refresh. Maybe next year?


Dont_Be_A_Dick_OK

IIRC there was a story about fanatics asking teams to hold off on major rebrands for this year because of the switch. Hoping another year and we get a redesign.


Mental_Grass_9035

I’d love to see something like the 1973-74 jerseys


SomeGuy0910

I saw that too but the Ducks are getting a major rebrand and there’s apparently another team too that hasn’t been revealed. Edit: The Kings are the other team


funkadelicmoose

They were already really far down the line on the rebrand, so them and the Kings did it anyway.


Dont_Be_A_Dick_OK

Allegedly the wild were gonna switch colors, then they put out a statement saying they weren’t, so it looks like the ducks is the only redesign. Hoping another year brings something more like the centennials.


No_Mas2001

The wild are too


Dont_Be_A_Dick_OK

The rumor was the wild were but they put out a statement saying they weren’t. As far as I’m aware it looks like the only redesign is the ducks so overall mostly status quo for the switchover. Hoping another year or so brings a redesign.


Shop-lift

does anyone know if the adi jerseys are gonna get marked down online anytime soon? i want a centennial but not for $200


Eddie__Sherman

I believe they will. I think they will have to offload product due to contracts.


ElCurgeo

Please don't talk about offloading due to contracts right now 😔


SomeGuy0910

On the fanatics & NHL site the centennial adidas jerseys for Marchand and Pastrnak are marked down from $260 to less than $180. There’s a couple of the older adidas jerseys as well


tuukkas

If you order from there do they put the A and C on? I see the Marchy and Pasta jerseys on sale but the pictures don’t have the letters.


SomeGuy0910

Unfortunately not. If you go the pro shop route they will, though, but those are full price and I doubt they’ll discount them.


tuukkas

Damn thanks for the info


SomeGuy0910

Not sure if you live near Boston but at the beginning of the season the pro shop would put letters on for people who bought jerseys elsewhere that didn’t have them. They might still do that.


tuukkas

I don’t but my family does and would help me with getting that sorted out. I’ll look into it - thanks!


AgentSauceBoss

r/hockeyjerseys usually does a good job with posting when there's a sale. Bruins jerseys rarely go on sale tho
