Getting rid of most of the signature jerseys would have made me happy enough, getting away from Reebok just makes me giddy. Whether Adidas or Nike end up getting the deal, I'm just hoping that jerseys are done right starting next year. I like Toronto's, Hamilton's and Edmonton's current home and away jerseys, more of that and going classic retro's will hopefully end up happening. Also hoping they realize that most of the time less is more.

Hope they can keep the Argonauts colours which are now pretty much perfect. I don't want the Argos looking like the NFL's Titans. I really hope it's Adidas again. I'm not big on the Nike NFL designs.

With the latest re-design in 2012 and because Adidas owns Reebok I doubt any real changes to jerseys other than the signature jerseys will be gone for good.

Also hoping they realize that most of the time less is more.Edmonton and Calgary jerseys look a little too NCAAish. Go back to solid home chrome Green for the Eskimos...similar to the ones they were during their heyday when they won 5 straight Grey Cups. The Stampeder should have the solid red or white. I'd love to see the Argos go back to their thick stripes on the pants ala their jerseys from the 80's, but it presently is not bad....perhaps a shoulder patch of the late 70's and 80's boat logo somewhere on the jersey while leaving the Shielded A on the Helmet.

Hopefully it means the end of the horrible signature jerseys. I don't have an issue with a 3rd jersey, but I prefer a throwback as opposed to the crap we see now. Personally, I blame the Oregon Ducks for this.

[R.J]

I agree with Angelo, most of the signature jerseys need to disappear. While searching via google I found some decent jerseys that Adidas has done, there are murmurs that the Bombers are planning to go Royal Blue as there homes, I wonder how many more teams will also receive jersey redesigns. If the Argonauts do go with something new as well as a rebranding of the team I think we all know what I'd like to see.

Boat logo primary helmet, then pride jerseys and pants (switch the pants though).

Can you remind me what the pride jerseys and pants are?

I love the updated boat logo altho I also love the white helmet we wear with signature -- maybe we could keep that as an alt helmet. But please please please Adidas, bring back the boat and keep the current colours.

But with the oxford blue helmets and updated boat logo, then as I pointed out previously switch the pants.

[paulwoods13]

Yes, switch the pants for sure. I'd also prefer the current striping with all three colours (including white) accounted for.

I generally loathe the monochrome look but the one exception was this year's look in Game 1 or 2 when we wore the signature white helmets with regular white pants and jerseys -- looked fantastic to me. I actually like the helmets shown above as well, for what it's worth.

I'd also like the Argos to consider reviving the pant stripes from the Jason era, but with the shields in double blue rather than silver, of course.

[R.J]

This was posted on twitter and I'd have to agree, I would love to see the Stamps return to these. My understanding is that the team's trainer loves the colour black, but IMO black has never been a part of the stamps colours until the last 5+ years and there is nothing wrong with red and white.

^^^^^what he said. I HATE the Stamps' current look, LOVE the old look.

[Gill The Thrill]

That Stamps jersey from the early 80's is awesome, very similar to that one shown.

Please no white helmets on the Argos...those helmets look like crap especially with a blue uniform. The white helmets they got now with the road uniform, not the signature uniform looks OK, but the official helmet should be blue....Bring back the boat and oar logo that the Argos had the last time they played at CNE, that's a classic helmet that would catch a lot of attention.

Blue helmet on all white road unis always looked good in the 80's. That 1991-93 look was also good, nice jerseys with the road white jersey and blue pants and vice versa.

The Stampeders' trainer has final say on the team colours?

Agreed that the Stamps should go back to the red and white.
Typical uniform designers default move - add black. SMH.

As for any new Argos uniform designs, I hope they drop the whites altogether.
The team colours are Oxford blue and Cambridge blue.
They should have a design that incorporates those two colours primarily, with one version using the Oxford blue as the dominant colour, then reverse that exact design so that the Cambridge blue is the dominant colour.
There is no longer a need to have a "visitor white" jersey.
White can be used as an accent colour if desired.

My $0.02.

From my understanding, he had been pushing it for years, I doubt he had the final say or anything, but seemed to get through to someone important.

[ArgoRavi]

Not the trainer but longtime equipment manager George Hopkins who got into a dustup with Michael Bishop on the sidelines at SkyDome in 2007.

[Argocister]

Perhaps we should go all white .... And rename the team the nomads

Thanks for this Ravi, this whole time I've had this feeling that I got Hopkins job title wrong, I just couldn't recall what he actually did.

LOL...Didn't he also have an incident with Danny Barrett, when Barrett played for B.C.?
