I thought that was a lot better than the color rush white look they have been using a lot as of late. I also noticed that the Alouettes wore their red uniform with blue pants and red socks and I honestly much prefer the Als' using their white pants with the red jersey. I liked the cambridge blue socks too since they actually fit well with the helmet stripe (which doesn't normally fit the uniform at all). Fun fact: as of a few years ago, teams must wear different coloured pants. Since the Argos were the designated home team and chose to wear white pants, the Alouettes couldn't wear their white pants and were forced to wear blue.

Jezus_Ghoti Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Completely agree that these new light blue socks really look great with the Argos' all-white look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the Alouettes still have their silver pants or would those be considered too close to white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after last year's flirtation with white helmets and pants, the Als seem to have gone there full-time, since silver hasn't been seen on the pants or helmets at all through the first eight games this year.

I don't recall that ever being said, not that the CFL tends to announce uniform changes all that well (unless it's a league-wide thing).

Chewbacca Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I don't know if anyone has seen this yet but I wanted to share it because the RedBlacks have given their logo the rainbow treatment for the time being and I think it looks amazing. I think their logo in general is highly underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 If the uniforms didn't look the same as three others and have a hash tag it might get more love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. Their home uniforms are garbage. I actually really liked their last black jersey. It was unique where now it is basically a Stampeders third jersey. I don't mind their away uniform but still, it has the same generic Adidas CFL template, which is disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Love the sawblade logo. The uniforms and all-caps name are trash, unfortunately.

I would love to see the Stamps wear their red helmet with their black alternate uniform for a game. They totally need to ditch that black helmet. I still do not understand why they think it looks good with their away uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 After watching the Alouettes/Blue Bombers game, I must say, Montreal knows how to wear an all white uniform. They looked fantastic last night against Winnipeg's blue and gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 The Stampeders need to take their outlaw uniform and create a new uniform set out of it. Throw away the awful cookie cutter current set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeypower Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 You can see some of the Stampeders were wearing last year's jerseys because the shoulder patch is covered up. Other players appeared to have new jerseys because there was no patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
