Pro: Safe choice
Cons: Been There Done That, Boring
Pro: You know this is a organization that would have screwed up something new
Verdict: Meh, but I gave away my throwback to my brother so will need new one. Will buy #19.

Safe pick.
I think I would have preferred a new third that was actually nice but you can’t be mad that this is the choice.
Now make this and the white retro our main set and then actually give us a nice third with the black C as our 3rd.

So why was everyone worried about flags? I don't recall us having a single retro jersey with flags on it

Because Calgary seems to love to go off the tried and tested paths with Jerseys and come out with some god awful decisions.

I am good with this and love these jerseys. I don't understand all the build up and drama to announce this though. Seems silly

Chalk me up as pretty underwhelmed. We've seen it many times before and was expecting a fresh take or at least something slightly new. Won't be shelling out for another retread like this.

Well the collar is different and the stripes seem thicker.
When the Flames get creative, it usually doesn't go well LOL

Personally, I prefer the previous retro roll-out as the neckline and dip were much nicer

Looks like just the collar changed slightly.

Good I guess, though I wish they had downsized the stomach striping a bit so it wouldn't look so much like a miniskirt.

Maybe part of the problem is that we have been looking at Split98's version for so long now. It is all shiny and lit up. Beautiful. Then the first thing we see is a FanAttic toddler jersey in terrible lighting and it's a bit of a letdown. The video looks better.
This was a good move by the Flames (shocking). Eventually these should be the full time uniforms and a new 3rd can be designed.

Now just transition this into the primary home shirt and make a classy set of white away threads based on these colours (which would sell like hotcakes, guaranteed). This is the obvious next step, right? Right KEN KING? Please read.

Will definitely be buying one of these, even though I already have two other versions of retro thirds. It's just different enough to make it worth it to me
