Does anyone know the reasoning behind the ECHL using AK Jerseys? Personally not a fan of AK Jerseys. Will the NHL follow suit? My team uses LUTCH but since the Russian invasion we are having issues.
ECHL is using AK for Jerseys

20 years ago the AK jerseys were crap but they've gotten better over the years. I still prefer Kobe K3G for my beer league jerseys but my most recent team uses a colorway (Philly WC) that is almost impossible to find but AK has it.
always looking for non Reebok L & XL shells......

Nothing wrong with AK jerseys.
The company is completely vertical and Made in Canada.
They are definitely nice unis in my experience, and I feel like being domestically made is the major selling factor.
Good Idea; Whistling while you work.
Bad Idea; Whistling while you eat.

AK is a good company and do offer some really nice uniforms, def a higher tier than the typical crap I see in beer league like mens league sweaters and Tron). As far as the deal, it's business, AK probably had the best offer to ECHL, tat's how business works... the league doesn't care who makes them as long as they meet a certain quality criteria and the price is right.
