walby2 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 The Toronto Argonauts debuted their 1983-edition alternate jerseys in last night's game vs. Calgary. 1983 was a big year for the Argonauts because that year, they managed to end a longstanding championship drought by winning the Grey Cup over the hometown BC Lions at Vancouver's then-new BC Place Stadium. I think Reebok did a pretty good job of staying true to the originals, which to my mind are one of the most iconic looks in CFL history (although I'm pretty sure there was no Nissan tag back then )Here it is, as seen on QB Ricky Ray and RT Jarriel King:Here's a scene from the 1983 Grey Cup, where Dan Ferrone and A Guy I Don't Recognize are hoisting the Grey Cup after a 31-year long championship drought for Toronto: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sluggermatt15 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I like them. The navy blue and light blue look great with the white. Take that Nissan sign off and it's another GREAT uniform. The helmet looks cool, IMO, especially the logo. Looks like Reebok got it right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

NorthStar74 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 That football logo with the A in the sail is the perfect one... the jersey is also perfect so best for the Argos to switch over from what they wear now to that 1983 set for good...

walby2 Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 Interesting...practically a consensus thumbs-up on this one. Considering the negative reaction to the BC Lions new alts, looks like Reebok did a bang-up job with this set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
