Arnold_Palmer Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 Looks like they’re going to debut their new colour rush alternative jersey August the 11th against Montreal. Curious to see how those things look in the field.

Goalie Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 It will be like the Jets black ish one. People hated it but look good on TV
Noeller Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 the new jerseys are hideous. Saw a couple people wearing them last week and it was just God awful. Not as bad as the blue camo, but it's darn close...

I don't like the new jerseys on fans either, but I liked them as uniforms for the players. Bubba Zanetti 1

Goalie Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Those camo jerseys just reflected the **** show we were on and off the field then. These ones will probably look slick on the players and TV. Would I buy? No. The camo jerseys looked worse on TV The Winnipeg Argonauts Edited June 15, 2022 by Goalie Bigblue204 1
Wilbur Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) With that big 'W' on the front looks like an American college team from the 40's. Hopefully they look better in a game situation. Edited June 15, 2022 by Wilbur Bigblue204 1

No. The camo jerseys looked worse on TV The Winnipeg Argonauts I personally do not like the W up front or the solid colour (matching pants/top). Also the pics make the uni's look like a spandex unitard (too tight). Just not a fan. Noeller 1

Not as bad as the blue camo, but it's darn close... I think as just a jersey fans will wear as a top they are not great. The big W just makes it look like an overly long t-shirt. As part of the overall uniform including helmet, pants and socks it works a bit better. So it won’t necessarily work as a money-maker.

I don't love the new ones but they are nowhere near as bad as the camo The camo was a mess, although we are undefeated in them (1-0 all-time!). Another low point was the gold tops with gold pants combo, although not as nausea-inducing looking back now as when I first saw it live in 2013. Edited June 15, 2022 by TrueBlue4ever
Rod Black Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Oh. I tried on the new alternative jersey. It was slimming, high end, and comfortable. It will grow on ya. Edited June 15, 2022 by Rod Black Stickem 1

I was at that game so I remember it pretty well. I thought we wore them once or twice more that season then retired them for the current jersey we wear today.
TrueBlue4ever Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 Pretty sure we only wore the camo only once for the Alouettes game.
Rod Black Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) The new alternate has dual stripes on the shoulders with two purposes, they flatter a fit individual, and they represent back to back championships. The visual broadening of the shoulders accents the upper “V” of a masculine physique from behind. Notably becoming to females. The “Royal Blue” is consistent with fans all time favourite, and blends beautifully in the stands. Mrs. Black’s sister was particularly delighted to report her reaction equated to the first time she witnessed a shorn scrotum, currently her favourite. Both of which may not be for everyone but certainly remarkable and possibly a popular, lucrative, spin on a classic colour. I suspect brother Wade had influence in the design.

JuranBoldenRules Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 I liked the gold jerseys from the mid-2000s and the 2012-13 ones as well. We just have basically no good memories with them.

We just have basically no good memories with them. Some jerseys look really good on the players as part of a full uniform, but are dull when just the top is worn by the fans (the San Francisco 49ers are a good example) while others can be nice as just a fan jersey top but make the overall uniform just look bad. Those gold jerseys were an example of that to me. But then I have always preferred a white jersey to a yellow one.

That didn't last long, but looks good in the closet.
