I like one of the jerseys, but really, they're in the bottom half.

What do you think of the Flames' current jerseys?
Overall, what are your thoughts? Hate 'em? Love 'em? Indifferent?
Vote, let me know.

The most disappointing in the league but far from the ugliest.
Reason for that is that some of the ugly ones I don't know how to fix. I'm not sure what Columbus and Carolina could do to make me think they are top 10.
For the Flames it is insanely obvious what they need to do but for whatever reason they refuse. It is madness I tells ya. Madness.

Honestly I don't think they're awful, but they're dated. They reek of the 2007 "let's get funky with the new EDGE designs" mentality that too many teams got caught up in. Most other teams that suffered from that have updated and cleaned up their look. Time for the Flames to do the same.

I like the colors and basic scheme but they could use a refresh. The 3rd jersey is actually a nice jersey minus the stupid "Calgary" crest.

Only one more year until they are gone. Hopefully we hear "Introducing for the 2017-18 season, the Calgary Flames retro Adidas jerseys for home and away" from Ken King.

The home and aways are the worst, with the random piping/striping every which way. Plus the shoulder flags.

I don't really rank jerseys that carefully, but voted barely top half. They're not terrible, but clearly not top 5 either.
I agree with Cecil that there's no reason for them to not be better. We have a good color scheme, a good logo and really beatiful classic examples to draw inspiration from. It should not be that hard to come up with much better jerseys.

I really don't like the black C. I prefer the thirds over the regular ones.

I wish they'd bust out that charcoal black on black jersey with red piping that is at the shop. I think it's maybe their practice jersey but it looks awesome.

Amongst the worst in the league. The originals and the 2004 set stand out as the best by far. I can't believe they've been running with the current ones as long as they have.

Sure, if this is 1989. But it isn't. They are done, they were nice for the time but they are not coming back.

They're great except for the shoulder patches.

They've grown on me in recent years. I think the white ones are actually quite nice. The red ones would be better if there was a white border around the Alberta flag, and the vertical stripes were coloured differently or scrapped altogether.
Still definitely in the bottom half of the league though.

Great timeless logo, but the colors and design of the jersey feel dated. Blue flag on red looks terribad.
Funnily enough it's the Retros that feel the most fresh.

I wasn't even alive in the 80s and I still think the retros need to come back full time. Or at least some variation of them.

I would like to see them try a version with the shade of red that the Red Wings home jersey uses instead of the red with orange tinge that they currently use.
