JohnnyAbonny Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 Specifically this shade of “old gold” that they used from 86-88, as they used a slightly different (imo better) variant for those 3 years To me, this is the perfect Bomber road set. You can see the difference here, as they’d worn the older, slightly duller and more mustardy shade from 70-85, including 1986 exhibition. Also, little trivia- the club wore white pants at home with royal blue jerseys and gold helmets, for just one season, 1965. I kind of dig them actually, especially the massive back numbers. I’d like to see them someday as a one-off retro for a HOF game or something. Noeller, wbbfan, rebusrankin and 5 others 2 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect what hes done this year, but, I dont expect him to turn out to be some bonafide db year in and year out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Black Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 The ‘65 furthest right uni’s, blue and especially white (the flashings on the arms) really catch my eye. Great post! Noeller and JohnnyAbonny 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man I’m a huge football uni nerd, I could talk about that **** all day. Agreed! Yet for me, the ‘65’s ARE the traditional look! your post totally reminds of the larger numbers on the back. Loved that too. Do I remember this correctly, the pants back then, were the fronts “shiny” material and the back of the legs were “matte”?

Also appreciated learning he’s actually pretty quiet and lets his playing talk for him. Thinking the Riders could benefit in having that a bit more.

It’s hard to tell cause a lot of the photos were b&w but I’ve for sure seen some from the early 60s where the pants were shinier on one side You can kind of see it here Edited October 6 by JohnnyAbonny Rod Black 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have to agree, though begrudgingly since it’s Sask. Still think Ford is the better player, but Milligan’s no jobber. I didn’t realize he was 30. I hope they overpay the **** out of him and extend his deal past ‘25. rebusrankin and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s from 1990 when they changed to more or less the “Vegas gold” they used through 2011. They also added gold trim to the numbers. wbbfan and Rod Black 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
