monkeypower Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Consider me pleasantly surprised that the horn football is on the sleeves and not a second use of a double-E. The helmet stripe is out of place though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJ Sands Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 The yellow stripes on the white jersey are a swing and a miss. Same goes for the pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they'd have added a green stripe above and below it would've looked better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 It’s definitely an upgrade but still not perfect. I can live with the white numbers on the home jersey, although I’m sure a die hard Edmonton fan would disagree. For me, it would have been even better with a yellow outline on both the home and road numbers also what about shoulder numbers? That area looks so empty without them.

nuordr Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I'd much rather that striping pattern the pants instead of plain gold pants. But I would rather have stripes that match the helmet stripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeypower Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 FWIW, the Stamps are wearing the 75th anniversary jerseys in the preseason game today. From those jerseys making an appearance again, that lady at the locker room sale saying the black jerseys wouldn't be back, the (2012-2020, 2021-?) home and black alternates being 50% off for months now and no black in social media graphics, it really would lead you to believe that the Stamps are changing something... but nothing has been shown. They do appear to have gone back to the "regular" helmets again with the (Yankees/old Tigers-esque different logo) horse on both sides and removed the striping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-tron Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I'm guessing that the 75th red retros will be the alternates this year and are being worn in preseason so that the new home and away uniforms can be rolled out right before the regular season begins.

Well they've got 12 days to do that if that is the case and CSEC hasn't really been the type to surprise jersey launch. If anything, they're the opposite.

nash61 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 I'm super confused. The Ticats have been practicing in black pants with two yellow stripes on them, but they wore solid black pants in their preseason game vs MTL.

I don't know that this is the reason, but teams frequently use old equipment, pants especially, for practice gear. They'd certainly look better on field with striped pants, but nobody asked me.

Except AFAIK, the black pants (used in game) are the old gear, and the striped pants (used in practice) are the new stuff. 1 Quote On September 20, 2012 at 0:50 AM, 'CS85 said: It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Here's some from a local reporter's Twitter feed: I don't think they're going to be *that* noticeable from the usual TV camera angles. But maybe they'll be distracting just knowing that they're there.

Either that or they stripped the Reebok marks off and they're only for training camp. I think it's more likely that these are new, because who keeps gear that long and just now starts using it?
