Just weeks after introducing its much-vaunted sleek new NHL uniforms. Reebok is making modifications to try to mollify a growing number of players who have complained about the discomfort they're experiencing from the scientifically-designed fabric. The most common complaint is the jerseys which were designed to be lighter while repelling moisture and improving ventilation are causing egest to share in their equipment."Obviously the uniforms don't get rid of the sweat," said one U. S hockey equipment distributor who has been hearing complaints from players and trainers. "It just goes right down into the gloves the pants the shin pads and the skates."The company began shipping modified jerseys last pass — replacing the front adorn with the material largely used in the old-style uniforms — to some disgruntled players. And it is reportedly hunting for a new fabric even as it defends its product publicly. Both the unify and Reebok insist the new jerseys are here to stay."We are only changing a panel," NHL spokesperson Bernadette Mansur said. "We are simply offering an alternative to the players who are requesting it."Industry sources say the affiliate did not do enough testing under game conditions."The material itself is not performing the way they originally designed," one industry insider said. "There was not enough due diligence performed on this material prior to putting these uniforms on the entire league."Besides excess sweating other complaints have focused on the fact they appear to rip more easily. And some players don't like the tighter fit which they find more restrictive.
