I honestly didn't realize there was such a "problem" with the old jerseys or these new ones. I don't get how some of you think they are terrible.

Hate the fake laces, hate the vertical striping, hate the black logo/sleeves/helmet/gloves/pants, really really REALLY hate the flags.

Hate the font, but at least they un-italicized it...

Summary: hate it. Screw you Flames.

They look basically the same minus the piping and taller vertical stripes. They won't look as naked with numbers.

2017 Flames jersey I would have preferred they went with the Retro colours and or the current colour scheme but no stripe on the bottom.
This new look is like a pajama shirt or something.
The Greasers look awful period.

I say that's a swing and a miss. Not the ugliest jersey by far but it's still a disappointment. I definitely will not spend money on this.

Nah. Just going to get the old Jersey with Smiths name and # now that there is little to no change between the old and new jerseys. I'm not going to spend $240 to replace the brand logo.

-Changed the laces so they don't dangle
-Obviously got rid of the Ugly reebok logo on the bottom front left, the back below the collar, and the left arm (3 spots). And added the adidas logo to the back below collar (1 spot).
-Tweaks to the collar and NHL logo.

Basically when you compare these two jerseys the new ones look cleaner with the removal of piping, removal of the reebok logo in triplicate, the adjustment to the flags and arm numbers, and the adjustment of the laces.
I think they made some nice adjustments and that's really all we were told they were going to do anyway.

I'm not sure why they kept the awkward underarm design. Although given how minimalist Adidas went with these, maybe we're lucky they didn't eliminate all stripes and go solid red.

Yep I think they are an improvement... but overall a missed opportunity.
