    Will they be using these for both road and home? Never liked white on white.

    Otherwise not bad, I still think the one after this will have just the 'A' instead of the sheild.

    The logo has gotten larger, which is good. I think those helmets look spectacular!

    I like them, as long as they are with the road uniforms. Dark blue helmets with home jerseys of course, otherwise they end up looking like the Titans.

    I like them but I also still like the dark blue helmet. I hope the shield size increases on the oxford blue ones too!

    hope they increase the size of the logo on the blue helmets too!!!!

    never liked white facemasks, especially on blue helmets.

    There was nothing wrong with the double blue three stripe white helmets they wore last. Disappointing if they just use the one stripe.

    Hmm. I seriously thought that the helmet had just come out of the box and that the blue stripe was packing tape to reinforce the top during shipping.

    If that's an actual paint stripe... I don't think it's very attractive.

    If it is an actual paint stripe instead of packaging tape - it's not even straight lol.

    Love the upsized logo, looks like the training staff experimented with cheap blue masking tape for the stripe.

    I actually like the single stripe but still think the triple stripe from last year looks better. The all white face mask is different as well.

    Good catch on the face mask. I missed that.

    I like the larger logo but I've always preferred double blue for everything, but then again my wife thinks I taking wearing my favourite colour to the extreme.

    I want to see these in person before coming to a final conclusion but:

    Large logo -- good
    Retention of shield over plain A -- great
    Lack of Oxford Blue in the stripe -- bad
    White facebar -- not to my taste, but might grow on me

    In watching a clip from practice yesterday, they looked much better on TV than what it appeared on the picture tweeted. I think I like it.

    I like it too. Has anyone confirmed they'll still have blue helmets for home uniforms?

    I've always been a big fan of the double blue striping. The single blue stripe looks like a work in progress. Thumbs up on the larger logo.

    Got this off of the Argo website --- does it not look like the oxford colour helmet has a larger logo? I think it does.

    The blue helmets have the same light blue stripe as appeared on the white ones and the face mask is dark giving it a very different look.
