For me the best replicas were the CCM / Koho series 550 that were available from 2000-2005. Those were close to the authentic but very affordable. Only differences were the logos were a different material, but still very good, lacked the fight strap, weren't as bulky and did not have double reinforced elbows. Otherwise it was the same air knit fabric and were very durable.
The reebok Premier's released afterwards were a serious step down with all the pilling that would occur and the extra cheap vinyl shoulder patches.
