RichMan Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 So most of us are determined to show the world what is our favorite activity in life by wearing hockey related swag to and from the game, here and there, well just about anywhere. Here are the brands that I've discovered over the years: - Gongshow - Hockey is Life - BHLPA - KEWL - Puck Bunny (ladies need to represent too ) Feel free to add your list. There is surely a substantial amount out there to make it worth our while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnyman666 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 1) No 5 Hole (Kevin Weekes’s brand) 2) Violent Gentlemen (George Parros’s brand) 3) Rink (made to look like Pink) 4) Hip Czech I have thought of my own. Yes- it will totally make fun of all of the hockey lifestyle brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IPv6Freely Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I’m not a fan of any of them. Maybe it’s my age but stuff like gongshow and the like just feels really juvenile. I have my Sparx T-shirt and a hoody on its way, but other than that usually just various Leafs shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not too into that type of thing, myself. I do wear my Factory Mad shirt often, as well as Blues shirts, but I can’t get myself to wear a lot of those lifestyle T-shirts. That being said- I have an idea for my own line of T shirts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULTIMA Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I spend thousands of dollars on goalie equipment. Brands can afford to throw a $25 t-shirt or baseball cap in the box. But for me to pay to show support for a brand that I bought equipment from to....show support of that brand. Nah. I could have put my money anywhere and I chose brand X. That's already customer loyalty enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My word of mouth is treated as gospel anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have put my money anywhere and I chose brand X. That's already customer loyalty enough. I do agree it'd be a nice touch if they'd toss in a tshirt or something. And I agree about the free advertising. There are definitely companies I WANT to provide some free advertising for though. Sparx is a good example. Some people may not have heard of them or may not have tried the product and I'm more than happy to explain to them the benefits, etc. Rebirth Sports is another one. I've referred so many people to them at this point they should be paying a commission! LOL. I'd also wear vintage stuff, eg. a vintage CCM logo shirt would be awesome.

Punisher Goalie Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Dude I wear branded stuff all day long lol. I like to pretend I’m sponsored. I do the same thing with golf - bag, hat, etc. Poser x10. I’m just old enough to not give a fuck what anyone else thinks I just want to live my fantasy pro goalie life haha.

RichMan Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 The apparel I'm referring to is not what represents a brand of goalie equipment manufacturers but more so hockey theme related clothes, the kind that reflects our lingo, our position played, our quarks and humour within the game and the hockey community.

Holes in his hands. Totally a hockey player though - sweet beard, hangs with his boys and walked off death on Friday by Sunday morning. Hockey players don't get hurt.

aircanuck Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 My undergear t-shirt begs to differ. Boy, I love that t-shirt. I kind of like the NO5HOLE stuff, but it's rarely in stock, especially in common sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
