A couple seasons to digest: Our new unis

Let me preface this by saying I enjoy nostalgia. I think a lot of the jerseys in the 80's were amazing, and the 90's ruined everything. We've had a couple years now with our new uniforms and I have to say I'm amazed at how bad they are in comparison to previous jerseys. Simple question: Do you like the new duds now with some time under them, or, do you long for the 90's or 80's jerseys? Or something new?

  • The new jerseys are disgusting. They completely overthought the process and should've followed suit with the whole "old is new again" thing that has taken over recently.   Classic, simple, clean. Th

In layman's terms, this is the new Bomber jersey ...

colin pls stahp.

If this what a typical Bomber fan looks like, I now see why Reebok needs to make bigger jerseys.

Somewhere in between a stick man & the dancing jelly dude above, I'd say.

Bombers should just go with the Royal Blues as the Home Jersey, White's as the away and Navy Blue's as the retro/3rd jersey.

I'd like to see the 2001 helmet & unis as the 3rd jersey.... 

I'm pretty sure the CFL said every team would have an "extreme" jersey this year, like the black ones BC had last year.

Someone should email the marketing team @ WBB to show them this poll. Small sample size but cmon.

They need to go Royal Blue for home, Gold for the road or White and then something for the third.

What's the difference between royal blue and navy blue? 

Nicer blue. And we win GC's when we wear them as our regular jersey.

is that a serious question ?

Yes. I asked my GF and she has no idea either.

It's not that weird a question.

Try looking up the difference on the 'net, you'll see many interpretations, some of which are very close to each other.

Add in the fact, as a poster pointed out, that fabric denseness and makeup may have the colours trend towards each other.

One man's Royal may end up looking like another man's Navy…to an extent.

It may not be a weird question but once you see the 2 colours there's no doubt the colours are different.

That's my question. Which is which? Pics would help...

Navy blue is much darker. Powder blue is a lighter & brighter blue. There are all kinds of pics of the Blue Bombers wearing those colours in the 70's, 80's & 90's.

Okay so Navy is darker and Royal is lighter, right?

Sigh, gbill2004.... Here's Dieter Brock  from the 1970's wearing Royal Blue jersey. Also our third jerseys are Royal Blue.

Why the sigh? Google Royal blue and Navy blue and the exact same colors come up.

Dark blue and light blue I can understand.

Sigh because I don't understand how  you don't get this: How can you not see the difference?

I SEE the difference. That's not the issue. I just didn't know what each was called; navy vs royal.
