SC BIlls Fan Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 For those who have old jerseys that has a number that coincides with a new player. Go to changethename.com They will make the new name change to your jersey. You just sew it on over the old one. Works great! I'm doing my old Watkins jersey with Diggs and my old Darius jersey with Phillips. Cost is between $30 - $45.

4_kidd_4 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Sorrentino’s on Sheridan in Tonawanda is a really good place to get a nameplate swapped out. A little further north, Stuart Sports in Lewiston does a nice job too. If you are in the WNY area, would highly recommend supporting such local businesses, not only could they use the $, but they are already tried and true masters of crafting Bills & Sabres fonts.

Used this site.... the blue they have on file for the bills was sent and did not match the jersey color in the least. I just threw it away. coulda just torched a couple of $20’s and it woulda been more fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I’ve never been a jersey guy, but my sons have had plenty over the years (including a signed and framed Bruce Smith). I considered Kyle, and after recent events I’d also consider Levi Wallace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) From Paul Lucas’s Uni Watch page, that used to be in SI and then ESPN.... He got a visual preview of the Bucs new uni design a couple of weeks ago, but was not allowed to take any pictures. A designer mocked these up based on Lucas’s description. Basically, reverting to the mid-90s SB era design, minus the orange trim, which I personally never cared for anyway. IMO, this takes them from worst unis to Top-10.
