The entire Canadian Football League has unveiled new uniforms
Adidas has taken a bit of a hit in the United States, losing the NFL, the NBA, Michigan and Tennessee to Nike, and Wisconsin, Cincinnati and the nation's No. 2 retail spot to Under Armour (with whispers UCLA will follow later this year). But the Three Stripes has picked up a big win north of the border: the CFL.
Adidas is now the outfitter of Canada's brand of American football, and on Thursday the entire league unveiled its new looks.
Let's go in alphabetical order, with each team's old look on top and new on bottom:
BC Lions
Calgary Stampeders
Edmonton Eskimos
Hamilton Tiger-Cats
Montreal Alouettes
Ottawa Redblacks
Saskatchewan Roughriders
Toronto Argonauts
SP-ARGONAUTS7NOV Toronto, Canada - November 7 - In first half action, Toronto Argonauts quarterback Trevor Harris (7) congratulates Toronto Argonauts slotback Chad Owens (2) on the Argos' second touchdown. The Toronto Argonauts played their last regular season game of the year at the Rogers Centre against the Ottawa RedBlacks. It is a must win game for the Argonauts to move on to the playoffs.

As you can see, some teams made wholesale changes while others essentially sprayed on a fresh coat of paint, but at first glance it appears every team either upgraded or stayed the same. Not bad, Adidas.
