    Cheap,, unlicensed knock-offs made in a Chinese sweatshop. I'd rather spend the extra bucks for the real thing.

    I have a couple of the knock offs and a couple of Official jerseys, the differences are so small that i really prefer to buy the knock offs. If you spill your beer on a knock off it is not as big of a deal.....lol

    I'm sure if I went to downtown Toronto I could find a Stempniak jersey

    Do I want to drive 2 hours and overspend on one? No

    MAJOR LEAGUE SWEATSHOP IN CHINA
    Licensed goods for the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NASCAR, and the NCAA, are being made in China by workers who are forced to toil 18 to 20.5 hours a day, 7 days a week, with just 15 days off a year. The average wage is 16.5 cents an hour. Workers have zero rights and are fired for even asking that their wages be paid on time.

    Workers live at the factory in dorm rooms sometimes sharing a room with as many as 19 other workers. For this privilege, the workers pay the factory owner, on the average, $15 (US) per month.


    Reebok Flees Canada
    Approx. 10 years ago ccm/rbk fired all of their skilled employees in Harrow Ontario and moved the production to communist China.


    Adidas to Move NBA Jersey Production Overseas
    Nov. 25 -- Sports apparel maker Adidas plans to move most production of NBA players’ official jerseys and shorts out of the United States, according to managers of the main factory producing the gear.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Everyone wants cheap goods, but they don't want to know what the workers in these sweatshops endure to produce these cheap products.

    "cheap foreign labor" costs US and Canadian workers their jobs. I guess no one cares as long as it's not their job that is impacted.
