When I read the title of this thread, I thought it referred to a new era with increased competition from the CFL from the Alliance of American Football starting in 2019 and the reincarnation of the XFL in 2020. However, I then realized that will be back to the future, considering all the previous leagues that have come and gone.

LOL, I can see how that can be confusing.

New Era takes over but CFL uniforms will remain the same in 2019

I'm hoping that in 2020 Calgary goes back to their actual colours, but I won't hold my breath on that one. Only jerseys I'd tweak or change are BC's, Calgary's, and maybe some tweaks to Montreal; everything else is fine IMO, but I'm sure teams will make minor tweaks.

Great deal. The company is eager to expand its brand from mostly hats and landing the CFL will be thought as a huge milestone. This year, it's very noticeable the lack of Adidas merchandise, which was never truly strong when they did care. New Era will be looking to make an impression and I would expect some great clothing, even for us Argos fans too.

Until Equipment Manager George Hopkins no longer works for the Stamps, black will be part of their uniforms. My understanding is that he has been the one to ensure that for the past couple of decades.

Hopkins pushed for it to happen with the Stamps for years, but also it seems to be a Calgary thing now though. Flames also went heavy black starting in the 90's. The Roughnecks who've always had black as their secondary colour feature a lot more black nowadays then when they first started out. The Stamps and Flames thing is ridiculous because their "retro" colours looked great IMO.

Stay tuned, I can confirm one CFL team that will have a completely new uniform look for the 2019 season. #CFLGameDay #CFL

I wonder which team, and if it'll end up being more than one.

Smart money is on Mtl, which has changed its look and logos all season, and IMO is in desperate need of a complete makeover. Khan is based in Mtl.

Montreal's new colours and new look confirmed.

VICE Media looks to be a new sponsor with the Als.

[gilthethrill]

I watched that video....so which uniforms are the home ones? The navy blue or the black? I don't like the look of this.

[paulwoods13]

So glad to know we are getting another black uniform. I hope Argos bring out alt blacks as well.

Agreed, nothing to write home about so far.

[R.J]

Alouettes new colour is deep steel blue not black for FWIW. Essentially they went with the Houston Texans colours.

[paulwoods13]

The picture of Poulin and Stanback at the 1:00 mark of the video sure looks like two different colour schemes, one with a much darker (almost black-looking) base colour.

Where in the world do they get these goofy colour names: "deep steel blue," "gun metal black," etc.?

[R.J]

Stanback and Pouliet are wearing the same jersey; it's just different lighting.

Summer:

New Era becomes CFL's new sponsor. Idea, still being discussed for Adidas to perhaps be the shoe supplier.

Alouettes toyed with the idea to unveil their new look midseason to have Xmas sales push. CFL, encourages to hold off, for a league wide spring launch.

I would expect to start seeing hints for other team looks being dropped throughout the course of the new year.

Spring, league will unveil every team jersey.

I will keep you updated with any info I receive. #CFL #CFLGameDay

I really don't know what to say...is the league trying to remove itself from its proud history?
