July 21, 201312 yr Dude, this is an 80's retro jersey... Oh, that explains it. Like Ozzy, I don't remember much of the 80's.
July 21, 201312 yr Looks more 90's than 80's from the little I can see of the Bombers logo on the sleeve but I'll take it with the name "CLEMENTS" on the back for sure. It'll go well with my 70's Brock jersey...
July 22, 201312 yr I wish they would put up a picture of the jersey complete with a number / name on it. I'd like a better idea of what I'll be spending $200 on ordering than a blank with the words "CUSTOMIZE IT" on the back in generic font.

July 22, 201312 yr So, this is a thrird jersey rather than an 80's version. Hope so as I'd love to see this jersey more often than just once.

July 22, 201312 yr I saw that but I don't really trust a computer generated image. I want to see an actual photo. The mockup they did for that banner makes the lettering look hideous.

July 22, 201312 yr Collar and lettering are not good based on this pic. Mike is right...would be better to see an actual one. Still...nice to see that it's similar to the 70s Royal Blue's.
July 22, 201312 yr The complaint I have from the 70's jersey as well as this one is the striping on the sleeves is too thin. The Gold stripe especially. Look at that pic of Brock. That's how it should look. Now, look at the third jersey. Not only does the Bomber logo look cheap but the striping does, too.

August 2, 201312 yr Retro jersey looks great and I'll definitely be picking one up but I have to say, something about the price seems a little off; cost of a plain jersey, no stitching/patches, is $109.99. Cost of a jersey with fully stitched name & number, according to the twitter post shown, is $209.00. Are we to assume that the cost of some letters and numbers is almost as much as the cost of the entire jersey itself? It's not just the Bombers either, NFL jerseys sell for pretty much the same price. And like I said, love the jersey and will pay whatever for it but it just struck me as kind of odd.

August 2, 201312 yr The fact that BlueBall (and others) will pay whatever for the jersey is probably why they're priced where they are. I think it's branding driving the price there, moreso than material & labor cost.
August 3, 201312 yr Don't like the logo above the name plate either (even on my current jersey) .. looks like a cheap after thought. Better than where the Riders decided to put theirs.
looks awesome!
