apuszczalowski Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Flyers were selling the pink jerseys last year (probably more teams did too) I figured they were probably sold with proceeds going to a charity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robviously Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 The worst part is that the actual design of the jersey is better than the one we actually have. The striping on the pink jersey actually makes some sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SDS Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Nah... too much material. Actually, she looks great in it. The jersey hangs to right about the bottom of her cheeks. When she reaches up to get something out of the pantry in the morning it is a sight to behold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bmwolf21 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Flyers were selling the pink jerseys last year (probably more teams did too) I figured they were probably sold with proceeds going to a charity I don't think the proceeds go to charity, it's just Rbk and the NHL trying to tap into a previously under-served fan demographic. MONTREAL, CANTON, Mass., and NEW YORK, Oct. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Reebok and the National Hockey League today announced the launch of two NHL-licensed apparel collections for women and children. The women's line includes t- shirts, tracksuits, outdoor jackets, headwear and pink and powder blue jerseys, each product featuring NHL team logos in ultra-feminine styles. The children's line, which Outerstuff, Ltd. will manufacture for Reebok, will feature more than 75 styles of children's wear, including replica team jerseys, locker-room apparel, onesies and creeper sets, in sizes 0-20 for NHL fans ranging in age from infant to 17. Both collections are available in the shop section of http://nhl.com/, at NHL team stores and in retail stores throughout North America. "Forty percent of our fan base is female, more than any other professional sports league, and 24 percent of our fan base is between the ages of six and 17 -- the second-highest among the leagues," said Brian Jennings, Senior Vice President, NHL Consumer Products Marketing. "Both collections are in direct response to demand and are the result of a collaboration between Reebok, Outerstuff and the NHL to provide two of our largest fan bases with products that show their strong connections to the game." The key element of Reebok's new NHL licensed women's and girls' collection is the white-and-pink replica jersey, inspired by the authentic jerseys as seen on the ice. Other elements of products for female fans include team t- shirts with glitter and rhinestones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopeleslyobvious Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I don't think the proceeds go to charity, it's just Rbk and the NHL trying to tap into a previously under-served fan demographic. The pink jerseys seem to be stirring up some controversey. Anyone else read the letter in this week's THN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Seats Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 So why do they assume women are going to want an ugly ass pink jersey? Why not make one in the regular colors that just has the different cut to fit a woman? My guess is that those would sell much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not make one in the regular colors that just has the different cut to fit a woman? My guess is that those would sell much better. They've always had those in the past. I think it's a safe bet that they didn't sell very well (why else would they try this?). The question is, why didn't they sell well? Maybe women want the same jerseys everyone else has (crazy feminists ;) ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
