captain patch

ok so i have a white ov jersey and really want to get a "c" patch for it... anyone have any ideas as to just get the captain patch and not a whole letter kit, ebay wasn't much help.... any ideas would be appreciated, i cant be the only one with an ov jersey who wants a captain patch for it can i?  Think it's only right that he gets the "c" but who gets his a then?...

fyi for the future, this is more fit to be a fanshot than a fanpost.

re: the C patches, i think there’s a stand where they do lettering at verizon center, but someone will know better than me.

Yes, there is a stand at Verizon that does the custom jerseys (not in the store, it’s a smaller one on the main concourse). You can take a jersey there and have the “C” added. I believe the others are correct on the cost of about $10.

maybe you can call kettler capitals iceplex and they can mail you one or something. or if you can find someone in the dc metro area that you trust to go there buy you a “c” and mail it to you.

I know I heard something about a stand at Verizon that would iron on a C for $10 or so. In a similar way, you could get a friend to buy you one from there and send it to you.

Kettler definitely has them. They put an “A” on my Ovie jersey for free last year (d’oh).

You could also try River City Sports for an online option. They’ll definitely have the letters, but you’ll have to negotiate getting them to send it to you or how much they’d charge to add it to your jersey if you sent it in. They’re a good shop.

Now…anyone know how to get an iron-on “A” off and replace it with a “C”?

Just keep the A, it shows you aren’t a band-wagoner. =]

I got lucky, when the color scheme and jerseys changed I bought a home Semin and a road OV with a C on it. I always told people I was planning for the future.

At the risk of coming across as a uniform nerd, does anyone know if the C’s put on at Kettler or Verizon are the same font and color wise (blue with white outline) as the actual jerseys, or just leftover letters from replica jersey making? I have seen many jerseys around Verizon on which the latter seems to be the case.

by Straight Outta Cauthen on Jan 10, 2010 2:08 AM EST reply actions  

The “A” I got at Kettler is blue with white outline, though I can’t speak to whether it’s replica or pro quality (since my jersey is a replica anyway). I was actually confused at first when I saw it – I had never really noticed that the letter is blue before.
