Cavalry's (spoilered for size):

NSFW!
Like the sublimations on the Halifax kits, though home collar is odd.

York home looks like a bandage wrap across the chest. And away is a lazy. No sponsor yet I assume?

Nothing special about Hamilton. Though they have the orange on both kits, maybe what Calvary should've done with green?

Winnipeg home looks like German third strip or training kit. Away looks cool, though it's a stretch for the red stripes to be interpreted as two rivers.
And the jumble of lines on the bottom portion, worse then a tramp stamp.

Edmonton's is a mess, and the busiest unnecessary design, from odd looking stripes in the front, not in the back, to a rabbit. This while the coach calling quite oppositely the fact that he wants and likes a clean design, and he also doesn't care about wearing a dark kit in summer and wants them tight. And the same sponsor as Winnipeg.

Pacific is an odd color choice, as if they couldn't pick which bright color they liked best so they picked both and called it a day. And same sponsor as Halifax.

Be interesting to see the short and sock combos, as that can make or break the overall look too. Are some of those really bright color jerseys really going to be the same color shorts?

I like the Calvary sponsor the best. It's not a copy of another, it's not a kit sponsor, and the only other unique one, having our kid play Timbits soccer back when, Hamilton's looks like a grown up veriosn of the Tshirts that kids get at 4 years old. Again, maybe move the C and maybe split the white collar with a green and red stripe (like Pacific did) would give it a bit more character.
