One thing I don't understand with many Flames jerseys is that the striping patterns don't match the other stripes on the same jerseys. In my opinion, this was worst on the cowboy shoulder Calgary-wordmark thirds. Just didn't match at all.

Looking at these black pedestal jerseys, why does it go white-black-yellow-red on the cummerbund part of the jersey and the socks, then goes yellow-black-white-black-red on the sleeve, and then red-yellow-black-white on the pants? If you were designing a jersey you would think you would want this to match or maybe be inverse in different parts, but not be so all over the place. Maybe I'm missing something.

For the Blasty's, it annoys me that they added more white in places (mostly by using the white C's on the shoulders compared) compared to the originals. But they took away the white striping. So now the pedestal pants also don't match the jerseys because they have an white in the striping pattern that is gone from the jersey and socks.

There's been a big improvement since the flag jerseys and wordmark thirds, but this kind of inattention to detail is still an issue.

Edit: My list of colours in striping is probably super hard to read without looking up at the image posted by TheRealPepman.
