For the third jersey, it would not surprise me at all if it's an updated version of the old Sunday gold jerseys.

Stadium Series is anyone's guess.
Meh. Super disappointing.

A buddy sent me an image of it blank, looks better than with the numbers populated.

i mean, everyone was pretty much expecting the yellows right? they aren't great but it's no huge surprise either.

Were those originally only worn on Sundays in the 80s as nocera alluded to?

Honestly, I was not, given that we already have the stadium series jerseys. Why make something that looks so similar?

Again, throw the actual logo on it and it immediately becomes better. Move the numbers to the sleeve and it's great. This just comes off as lazy.

I was expecting this but obviously in the Adidas template with the Pens logo (including the damn triangle because that's the Pens logo).

How **** easy is that?

I agree, those changes would make it look better. The mesh up top is so **** hideous, though. I guess I was just hoping for a different style of throwback.

Yeah, that mesh makes it look really cheap. Other than that I don't mind it, I think. Will like to see it in person.

I think my jersey buying days are over anyway so it wasn't like I was rushing out to get one regardless of what it looked like.

Maybe it'll look better on a bigger person. For some reason, it looks like Letang is wearing a kid's jersey. Who knows.

Yup. The good news is the Pens just saved me $200.

Here's the blank:

The yellow gold needs to come down off the shoulder a bit. It looks like a vest.

And now that you mention it, all I see is the vest.

Exactly what I said elsewhere. Even before seeing your photo I thought the yellow should come down further towards the elbow like the older jerseys. There's way too much black on the sleeves. I also don't like the single layer/color "C" & "A". Small details are lacking, but they kind of added up.

Also agree on using the actual logo. Not a fan of this crest for an alternate.

I don't like it. Not at all. On a scale from A to an F, it's a C-. No bottom stripe, no triangle, and those sleeves make it look like a vest. I'm assuming the issue with the shoulder/sleeves is a result of the adidas template.

I'm with nocera on this one. They just saved me at least $200. I haven't bought a new jersey in a few years and I was looking to upgrade. I'm sure I eventually will, but it won't be to this one.

I hate the all yellow look. I like to crack on Nashville for their Tweety Bird look when they have the all yellow motif going. Why even bother with a 3rd jersey? Oh wait, that's right, cash money. Silly me.

Oh I actually love that dimple effect on the shoulders. If it makes a difference, it's on all the jerseys in that same spot, including our home/away. I think they are just very prominent looking in that photo due to lighting.

To be fair I think all of the Adidas jerseys look cheap, like a high school football jersey.
