    I don’t hate them but too simple. Shoulders remind me of the grey Alouettes. I don’t mind going with that shade of blue as an alternate, why mess something that I thought was perfect? Overall, a bit too boring. Reminds me way too much of a soccer jersey.

    I’m getting a heavy St. Mikes vibe after seeing the player photoshoot with the pants and helmet together

    Football jerseys need to have numbers on the front.

    What happened to double blue? I love Cambridge blue, but it has to be paired with Oxford blue. The light blue can be used for away jersey. But dark blue needs to be at home.
    GO ARGOS!!!

    Overall, I like them and think they are an improvement over the previous iteration. We haven't had numbers on the sleeves since 2004 and so that's an interesting throw back. I like the oars on the shoulders and on the pants. I prefer the word "Argos" to "Toronto" that the previous jersey had. I'm not a fan of the number font but understand it has roots to the Canadian navy and like the nautical theme overall to the design.

    I do wish that they had an Oxford option as well. 3 jerseys, 3 sets of pants, and 2 helmets. The amount of combinations of those would be fantastic and maybe it's something they can add next season.

    Still not as good as the 2017 uniform design though.

    They do. Only the blank ones don't have numbers.

    I am reserving judgment on the new uniforms.

    Haters gonna hate but I think they look great. Not too plain like the last jerseys but nothing too ridiculous. I like the shoulders. I wanted stripes but overall I'm happy with these they are sweet.

    I would prefer more Oxford in the equation but overall they are nice. Probably like the white version more than the blue which is rare for me.

    Design elements are all good -- number font, the oars, etc. But . . .

    I'm past the point of hoping for contrast between top and bottom -- clearly the uniform designers of the world have unanimously concluded that the monochrome/pyjamas look is hot stuff. I've long since lost that battle. But the socks?! Why on earth do the socks have to be the same colour as the pants? Especially on the road unis? I can live with everything else (much as I'd have preferred contrast), but if this is the socks look we will get all season, I'm really disappointed.

    Much better than the previous jersey, but not as nice as 2012-17. Overall, I don’t mind it.

    I'm OK with a year in the Cambridge. We've had far worse.

    No guarantee that these are short-term though.

    We generally swap every 3ish years?

    I'd expect we'll have Oxford back prior to that.

    Overall an improvement over the uniforms from last season but the bar had been set pretty low.
    Not the biggest fan of the all white uniforms, would prefer contrasting blue pants (either Oxford or Cambridge) to keep the uniform more interesting.
    No stock on 2XL and larger uniforms??

    The first thing I saw were feathers on the shoulders similar to what Gabe wrote. Like Paul commented, the bland all one colour look is now a thing in football uniforms, so it is what it is.

    Better than the bland junk the team wore the past 3 seasons, at least there was an effort made. It could have been better but they are ok.

    Love the Cambridge blue; but I'm with Paul that the trend to all one color is not that great (maybe once a season look) and contrast in the pants or socks adds to a much better look. And those oars on the shoulder are a nice try, but end up looking like they could be anything other than oars. Shoulda tried for a ship logo, even a new stylized one.

    Argos really mixed and matched top and bottom last year. I think they likely will continue with that trend.
