    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

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

    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.

    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.

    Jerseys should be identifiable by team logos and colours. Therefore I don't like team names written on jerseys and I really hate city/province names on jerseys.

    It seems though that all CFL team jerseys have this feature. Why?

    Radically Canadian!

    I am reserving judgment on the new uniforms.

    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.

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

    Out of the park, no, but I like them enough to get one. I wish there was a little more Oxford blue, perhaps if they coloured in the oars. The oars are a cool idea, but they need to be a little smaller or more defined as people have mistaken them for swords, feathers, etc. Some Oxford socks would set off the look nice. The white away with blue pants are going to be the best look. I’m sure we’ll see that combo at some point.

    For anyone considering purchasing the fan jersey, I’ve read they fit a little tighter than previous years and to size up. Can anyone actually confirm this? I’ll now have to wait to test size as I’d hate to drop $200+ on something that shows off my nipples.

    We can hope that's the case, I guess. But I've noticed that NFL uni reveals include every possible combination. If there are more mix-and-match looks, Oxford pants or socks, etc., we should have seen them when this new look was rolled out, IMO.

    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.
