walby2 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Why are so many CFL teams eschewing the helmet stripe? It makes the uniforms look half baked... the Sask/Ham photo looks like a NCAA Div III game someplace where it never occurred to the equipment managers that stripes might be an appropriate touch.

Nook Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Posted by @TheRiderStore yesterday. Could be worn with the Riders white throwbacks. I'm wondering if the Riders will have both green and white throwback jerseys this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering if the Riders will have both green and white throwback jerseys this year.With the team using white helmets (last night and above), will their fans be wearing a lighter shade of melon on their heads? I can haz sig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stampman Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 With the team using white helmets (last night and above), will their fans be wearing a lighter shade of melon on their heads?Good question...Maybe there's a Rider fan that knows the answer...(On another forum I read a comment from someone who thought it was the Stamps fans that wore the melons. I've only ever seen or heard that from Rider fans.) Comic Sans walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve your type here."

M4One Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I was okay with the Stamps black pants at first, but after watching highlights of their first game, I know they need white pants. It just doesn't look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kw11333 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 This league jersey change is just so random. Some teams have a massive upgrade(Tor/Ham), couple pretty much stayed the same(BC and MTL), and the biggest downgrade is league history perhaps, and their jerseys were not even that great prior (Sask). Also a big "MEH" goes to Calgary and Edmonton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just doesn't look right.I respectfully disagree. I was at the game last night, and I think the black pants look great with the red jersey. Need red pants for the road though.

Need red pants for the road though.They do look better with the new jersey than the previous jersey--but it just ain't right for a team also known as the Red & White...

Windstorm Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I agree with everyone else, the mono uniforms (like all white for Saskatchewan and all blue for Toronto) just don't look right. At least some of the teams, like BC and Montreal, have it figured out (light pants with dark jersey, dark pants with light jersey). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I'm guessing he's referring to the shade of gold on the helmet, versus the one on the uniform. It really does look like the Bombers forgot to order new helmets for the new unis, so hey, since we've got these retros laying around, why not, close enough.

bleuet Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 CAVILLO's name was not even sewn correctly in the center of his jersey.Like I anticipated, the ALOUETTES white letters on front looks ugly as soon the jersey is not totally straight.Why in the hell they did not bring back these classicsAmateur work by Reebok.
