  1. Always love when people go with 4 jerseys per team in their concept series. Especially making their 3rd different but still kinda traditional. And always gotta have a retro. Also love how you have an explanation for each design. And the merch is an added touch. Good job!
  2. All of these so far are very good! Like able to have their own unique yet traditional approach. Toronto, Saskatchewan and Calgary really stands out to me.
  3. I know that compared to the other leagues, the CFL isn’t as big in terms of teams but none the less I thought this year I’d do a CFL week by week uniform match up ranking! As well as a uniform power ranking. Week 1 1: Winnipeg Blue Bombers vs Ottawa REDBLACKS (19-17 Winnipeg) Winnipeg’s home and sway’s are by far the best uniforms in the league. A classic modern retro style done right. Ottawa’s new away uniform has grown in me, it’s a good concept, maybe would be even better with black pants but the plaid being here is the best feature. Also maybe a red stripe on the helmet might look good too? But regardless (and despite my team losing) this is a good match up that we didn’t get last year. 2. BC Lions vs Edmonton Elks (59-15 BC) This is the regular season debut of the new Elks away look and it does a lot better than what they had before, it’s still needs a tune for it to be better standing alone (like two green sleeve stripes to cap off the yellow ones). BC on the other had has a good looking colourful uniform here with good contrast. I guess the only thing I could add to it too would be orange socks and the return of the helmet stripes? But overall a good looking match up in a massive blow out that could be a sign of a rebirth of the Vancouver market! 3. Saskatchewan Roughriders vs Hamilton Tiger-Cats (30-13 Riders) Hamilton’s away uniform either with yellow or black pants is great (this uniform alone elevates this match up) the big problem with it is that there needs to be a stripe or two on the pants! Saskatchewan could have gone with green over white as I’m not a big fan of their all green look. Another thing they could have done was bring back the helmet wrap around but that’s just me. Overall though it is a bottom-mid level match up solely for Saskatchewan’s all green look. 4. Calgary Stampeders vs Montreal Alouettes (30-27 Calgary) This one is bottom tier for me because I thought it was kinda bland. I’m still not entirely sold on Montreal’s new look though I’m a fan of the away’s contrast (with navy, white, navy, red). But the jersey itself is too simple and looks like an NCAA 14 team created uniform. And that new helmet is not doing then any favours either. Doesn’t fit the rest of the uniform’s simplistic MO. Calgary on the other hand, looks good-ish? I say that because it’s kinda odd to see any team in the CFL start their season with an alternate uniform outside a special year. They did all the press in the uniform this year too. And while I like it, it makes me wonder what the away or even home uniform will look like. But still, never thought Calgary and Montreal matched up well anyways. The Uniform power rankings: 1. Winnipeg 2. Hamilton 3. BC 4. Ottawa 5. Calgary 6. Edmonton 7. Toronto 8. Montreal 9. Saskatchewan What are your thoughts?
  4. Hamilton really needs to put a strip on the pants and they are easily a clear #2 in the CFL uniform pow… oh :censored:, that Alt knocks them down to 4.
  5. Chicago vs Minnesota at Lambeau… you are crazy and I like it. Kinda a Calgary vs Winnipeg in Regina vibe
  6. Hate me but this patch I thought was the best one, part in no way cause of reasons…
  7. I think Ottawa already did theirs, at least maybe a new home jersey is coming? would love t see black pants with the white jersey.
  8. They still look off, they could have gone with all yellow numbers and it would be more at home on the jersey, mat least more consistent with branding.
  9. They didn’t need to touch the numbers, the all white numbers just look off, sure they pop but not in a good way.
  10. My dark horse pick: Super Bowl XXXI! The uniforms are classic, the turf (however deadly) and field was vibrant, the fox broadcast is amazing and the logo caps it off with flavour! Also the Packers won so that keeps me going.
  11. I know these two jerseys are from last year but due to one team being Canadian and one time being American these two uniforms finally match up since April 16th 1995 and oh is it nice! I know they both have subtle differences but you can’t deny this looks great!
  12. I think Super Bowl XXXI is the best looking Super Bowl. Maybe it’s the field design, maybe it’s the Packers uniforms and the bright Patriots uniform, maybe it’s the Fox Broadcast, or the actual event logo but it’s the best looking one in my opinion. also helps that the Packers won!
  13. Argos going with their old “A” 1991 Helmet decal to celebrate the 91 Grey Cup winning team for this (and Wednesday) weekend.
  14. Blue pants would have been best for the Lions.
  15. I’m torn, it’s a great rebrand but I always though it was missing something and that something is a navy layer to the bolt and numbers. (Completely disregard the bad striping on this one but add the principle of the numbers and that would look so much better) like it adds some definition and makes the elements stand out more.
  16. I mean sure, let’s just make you the fines guy in the CFL.
  17. It was the best photo I could find, but it was taken during warm ups, during the game you wouldn't see any of that.
  18. This is a very superior uniform match up for both Toronto and Hamilton. Lots of colour from both teams, No mono white or black uniforms, if only Hamilton had a black stripe or two on their pants but still. This is a look and a half.
  19. Or maybe a stripe or two on the sleeves akin to the 2013 80’s throwback?
  20. Their practice jerseys use gold, they look so much better.
