Yes, the ad for the $249 jerseys specifically says "Single layer printed twill lettering package". It's not real layered twill; the colors are just printed onto a single layer (which, if past examples are any indication, will fade over time with washing). You'll want to pay the full $299 to get a blank jersey professionally crested with three sewn layers.

Going to have to wait and actually see these in the store before actually buying one. It's so hard to tell what they will be like from a picture on a website.

I'm heading to FanAttic today to take a look at them in person, if I buy one I'll snap some pics...if I don't buy one, it'll speak to a certain level of quality...

Ah missed that part, thanks!
Going to have to wait then and get the real crested numbers done on my jersey then. Hate the silk screened numbers.

Single-layer printed twill is the devil. Buy a blank and let me customize it for you, sewn three-layered twill guarantee!

They mean the numbers/name bar right? The online jerseys are still the Adidas authentics with the sewn on crest?

I believe that's what they meant. I'll pop by the Fanattic after work and post some pics of the uniforms.

From what I've seen the major differences are:
-wider proportions
-made in Canada, not Indonesia
-lighter, better quality material. Looks like the Indonesian "authentics" use Reebok Premier material.
-no Adidas button on lower left
Probably some other minor differences too.

The Flames are advertising Feb 3rd vs CHI as retro night.

Dumb question, but what size did you get and how does it fit compared to the Reebok you might normally wear?

That might not be entirely true. The Maple Leafs are getting a special uniform for their 100th Game.
