Subtle, but still there.

There were simply too many stripes on the old jerseys, which made it look cluttered. As for your comment on the shoulder yokes: red on white is a very drastic and bold statement, which usually needs a buffer. Very similar to yellow on black, which is why Boston’s shoulder yokes work so well. Green on white can stand alone pretty well, especially this shade of green. What works for one jersey and color scheme does not always work for another.

@buck: I’m sorry, where in my post did I say everything was a fact? A fashion critique is wholly subjective, and that’s what this is: a fashion critique.

@nude tayne: I agree. the Edge jerseys do hinder creativity to a point, which is unfortunate. But, if you look around the league, you will see teams doing a lot of innovative designs with them. The big problem is not using the color palette well with the design they developed. The Edge jeresy is partially to blame, but the true test of creativity and innovation is working through road blocks and barriers.

The Black with the Green Star trimmed in Gold was perfect!

The fit and cut are awful. I’ve worn an Edge uniform (jersey and socks) in my league and it’s easily the worst thing I’ve ever put on. They look terrible and constrain jersey designs way too much. They need to go now. Maybe then we’ll be able to see some truly innovative and classy designs.

As for most Canes fans, we actually like the hurricane warning flags on the bottom of the jersey’s and wish they had incorporated them on the new ones.

When they were at home it looked like they were wearing black pajamas. These will look better on TV at least. I have to agree with you about the logo looking like a rough draft and about the striping on the road jersey. I’m expecting some tweaks to the design (and the logo) over the next few years.
