The Argonauts seem to have an aversion to being truly "double blue"... they always seem to want to be just one or the other. It's rare that they ever have a look that makes effective use of both shades.
This is not a bad look, its charm lies more in the fact that it is very modern in terms of the design touches as opposed to being exceptionally well executed. I agree with the posters who have said that it needs more of the Oxford Blue. Maybe in the pants or otherwise. As it stands this looks like a great alt but not quite right as a primary. The previous poster does make a good point that it's a unique look in pro football, so I suppose I have to give the Argos their due on that front.
Finally, maybe this is just my thriftiness, but I'd be slightly annoyed if I was an Argonauts fan. Anyone who bought the previous Argos jersey (the glorified practice jersey with no striping) got screwed. Now not only are they stuck with the same plain jane jersey, it's the wrong colour now.
