It's more like a Tennessee Titans look. Hopefully it's an alternate jersey kind of thing and is only worn once. They lost in this combo so hopefully it steers them away from it. If the Argos were wearing white pants, this would be the top look in the CFL.

kiwi_canadian Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Als wore the white helmets at home last night. Is this going to be a permanent thing? Looking at it now I think that if they use the white pants at home with the white helmet, the look will be OK. Silver with the white helmet makes it too cluttered.

It's cause the CFL doesn't allow the same uniform elements between teams. Ottawa normally wears all white on the road (Really wish they would stop it) and Montreal wears a light coloured helmet and pants most of the time (except the blue pant's that they wear vs Saskatchewan all the time) So Ottawa had to go with Black White Black which looks ten times better than all white.

Looking at it now I think that if they use the white pants at home with the white helmet, the look will be OK. Silver with the white helmet makes it too cluttered. They have worn the white helmets with their burgundy jerseys twice (both times against Ottawa) and silver helmets with their burgundy jerseys twice. It's too soon to tell if this is meant to be permanent, but they're definitely wearing the all white look more with the white jerseys (four white helmets, one silver helmet). This is also easily the most the Alouettes have worn white helmets since returning to the league in 1996. It's possibly because the Lions have abandoned their full time white helmet.

greyraven8 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 One of the better uniform match-ups in this Labour Day Classic.

Maybe if the pants stripes went all the way down as well, that would help the look a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I actually like BC's "mismatched" uniform set. Although, I wish the logo on the black helmet was the same orange that matched the orange helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartacat_12 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Calgary is the only team in the league with a red helmet, yet they continue to wear the boring black helmet on the road. When they pair it with the red pants it throws the balance completely off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-tron Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 The Alouettes are wearing their white helmets with away jerseys, blue pants, and blue socks for the first time this season (and ever, if I'm not mistaken). I think I would have preferred the red socks just to balance it out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed wholeheartedly. In my opinion, when the Riders wear them they're not only the best looking team in the CFL, but one of the best in all of football, period. Grey Cup history or not, putting the retro look on the back burner in favor of anything current is almost inexcusable. Also, re: Winnipeg, they're just a road uniform shoulder yoke removal away from perfection. After a few games of seeing it action, the blue jersey is already there.

nash61 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 So I was thinking about a CFL where each team had a unique colour (specifially helmet). Hmmm... this might be worth a concept.
