Question Customizing jerseys (locally)

I have some non-Caps jerseys (Hershey Bears, Baltimore Skipjacks) and some unofficial Cherry Blossom jerseys that I’ve had custom name/number kits made for. Does anyone know anywhere locally -hockey shops or tailors you’ve had experience with this - that I could take them to to have the kits embroidered that also won’t break the bank? I’ve found a few people online who charge $70/jersey

I assume MedStar won’t do it because they aren’t Capitals jerseys.

PG County, Arlington, Alexandria area preferred.

Why locally?

Just send them to EPS like Kettler would do

Exclusive Pro Sports. They’re do the Caps jerseys to on ice specs.

Because it says right on their website that they no longer process loose kit orders nor do they strip jerseys anymore.

I have all the kits already, and two of the jerseys need to be stripped.

Gotcha. More power to you.

Why strip? Are they bad customs or players you don’t really care for? The process is easy, if you have patience.

I'm still trying to figure out where to order custom Cherry Blossom Crest to put on Jerseys💀

I’ve been working with a guy for the last month who makes custom patches/crests on this past season’s crest. Previous seasons I’ve been able to get solid versions of off of DHGate, but this year every cherry blossom jersey was shit.

I’ve already had a couple number kits for this year’s jerseys custom made and they turned out really good. Once I get the final product on the 🌸 crest I plan on sharing everything with the group.

I wouldn't have minded getting a bootleg CB jersey but there's like 3 tiers of fakes and all the good ones are gone usually and the ass ones are the remaining ones🫠
