Retro Winnipeg Jets Jerseys?

[FMichael]

Since Calgary, and Ottawa went “retro” - any chance we see Winnipeg do the same in the near future?

While these are from the Heritage Classic - I think they would make a great alternative.

Their logos are so plain right now, anything would be better.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Those retro jerseys are much nicer than their current ones.

Honestly, the current logo is the best in the history of the franchise and the previous franchise. The unis themselves are too busy, but these ones are bland. I'd rather they just make a better version with their current logo.

Their old logo is simply the best. Would love to see it on a regular basis.

That's so ugly you want to vomit. Boreball-style jerseys should be forbidden in hockey. I agree that their old logo is their best though.

I understand your feelings towards them since they seem to get a controverse opinion throughout the league.

I dig it a lot tbh.

Personally they should just change to these retros they look awesome in my opinion. Never liked the new Jets jerseys. But that's just me.

Those old ones are awesome but I think it's a bit less likely than the Calgary or Ottawa ones. With those two, they changed the jerseys in a bad way and then recently just fixed it by going back. With the Jets, we have a whole new team now with the "original" 2011 jerseys. The old ones aren't even the most recent old Jet jerseys - these ones haven't been used since the 70s. Who knows though, it'd be cool to maybe do a modernised hybrid one in the future.

I just wish the dark blues had white lettering with red outlines instead of red with white

I'm very confident that this is exactly what they are going to release once they decide to switch their jersey set-up eventually. The feedback on those retro style jerseys is pretty much 100% positive around the fanbase and even across the league. It is too much money to pass on and instead gamble with a new design that people will be pissed about... everyone will be stating how stupid they are to not go with the obvious choice. It just makes way too much sense marketing wise.

To me, the only question left about this topic is "When?" - and I think it will be as soon as the current core is done and they go into a rebuild phase. Teams that have changed their look and feel have acted similarly to it. It's a good way for your marketing to insert a fresh and positive breath of air into a "negative" situation (i.e. going to suck for a couple of years until they are back with a good young core). That is at least how I see it as a Marketing Designer myself.

Best in the league.

 

[Dr Black]

I like their retro jerseys more than their third jerseys.

 

[Guardian17]

As a Jets fan I really wish they'd go to the Heritage jerseys full time even if they have to slap the current logo on them.

 

[Larry Hanson]

They should definitely go with the retros, so should the Nucks.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

They should definitely go with the retros, so should the Nucks.

so should literally every team in the league. Teams are catching on, with St. Louis, Calgary, Buffalo, and Ottawa going back to their classics. Any jersey designed after 1995 is f***ing garbage.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Retro's are beautiful but I do like the Jets current logo & jerseys.

I think they should incorporate those jerseys at some point, but as someone else said I wouldn't be ready to get rid of the current logo yet, its a very nice modern Jets logo.

 

[JKG33]

The Jets have a very solid logo currently, but the jerseys are among the worst in the league. The retro jerseys are beautiful, but the logo is kind of dated if it were to become a primary.

In a perfect world the Jets take their current logo, modify the colors slightly, and slap it on the jerseys in the OP.

Something like this?

Quite frankly I thought their 1990s sweaters and logo were the best ones.

This would be one of my favorite sets in the NHL.

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

I would honestly love these, sales would soar too.

But Mark Chipman won't get his head out of his *** and to put it in perspective he won't do anything about Paul Maurice who should've been let go as early as 2017.

Yes! And then personally I'd do an alternate red jersey. Or baby blue if management is married to that color
