The “C” is much bigger than on the originals. I thought the smaller logo was cool. There is something a bit “brighter” and more polished to the updated version. I go back and forth between which version I like more. I still think I prefer the original set.

Agreed. It is brighter and crisper. Not sure if that comes down to better fabric, but the originals never seemed so crisp.

The shade of yellow is now brighter and a bit more orange. They also made the yellow elbow stripes thicker.
I prefer the 80s style if I'm being honest.

Either way, the retro white (when paired with the red/yellow gloves and red pants) is the nicest uniform we ever wore, whether you're talking the vintage or Heritage Classic version. I've been saying it for years..never expected it to actually come back. What a time to be alive!

I love that they wore it at home a couple of times. I would like to see it used at home at least 10 games next year.

And then red on the road a few times, like in WPG when they wear their retro whites.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see the team wear both home and away retros in the qualifying round and playoffs if we make it that far.

Pretty much all but confirmed that they will be wearing the retros full time. We may have seen the last of the black flaming C for a while, since the team did wear the retro reds at the very least in the playoffs last season, I expect at least that one again.

I really love it as well, however I am waiting for it to be made available without the Heritage Classic patch, only because they lost that game. Had they won, I would have bought it with the HC patch.

Yes, I am that picky about the small details.

Me too.

Though I don't think I care if they won or loss, I just don't want a jersey from a single game ... want it to be every day.

See, I’m weird and I like the HC patch. But I also want one without the HC patch. That way I have the Heritage Classic version and the away version (if the rumours are true).

Got a Heritage Classic white jersey from Adidas with a faulty 50% off coupon that wasn't supposed to apply.

Came with the patch and I just finished removing the stitches. Came off cleanly and looks much better without the patch.

Now to get Rasmus Andersson put on it I think.

Sorry didn't mean to hijack it, I tried to post in the thread KK actually did post in, but didn't link the image properly and the thread was closed.

I know we currently rock the best Jersey Set in the league and I didn't mean to bump this thread to discuss those glorious silks (esp our White Away lets be honest best in the league), but here is a new concept I spotted online. EDIT:**I dont know how to embed images from instagram** Follow the link below.

Out of the jerseys in that link, I like the updated ‘04 red jerseys the most

That 2004 jersey would make a sweet alternate, make it happen, two jerseys that Flames wore to the cup.
