Alberto7 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I saw this on the TSN article about John Limniatis and Googled it. Here is what I found: www.jamd.com/image/g/1792093 12 Jan 1996: John Limniatis of Canada kicks the ball during a Gold Cup game against Brazil at the Los Angeles Coliseum in Los Angeles, California. Brazil won the game 4-1. Mandatory Credit: Jamie Squire /Allsport Does anyone remember Canada playing with Umbro uniforms? I don't. I know we have been with Adidas for a long time and briefly with Score but not with Umbro. Does anyone have other pix from this era? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcaout Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 We had Umbro in the mid 90s after the score jerseys of 94 qualifying. I don't remember the above style though, doesn't look like it even has a CSA logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tintin Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 We had Umbro kits twice in succession, both times with red, white and a black third. Of the six shirts in total, only one of them sucked, but I bought it anyway because it was such an improvement on the Score fiasco. The material was sublimated with the shield of each province and territory (two at the time). What he's wearing in that photo was not available to the public and doesn't look familiar.

redhat Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 We even had Umbro training staff shirts ... in blue. (I have one.) The CSA logo is on the right. I have a Soccer Canada issue with the 96 GC; I'll see if I can scan and post a few pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razcle Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Here are the pics I dig up. The jersey that he is wearing does not look fimilir. Also, the logo doesn't resemble the badge of Canada Soccer for what it is worth http://www.eng.uwaterloo.ca/~edean/soccer/Canadian-Jerseys.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhat Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Maybe these would work: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I seem to remember an alternate black Umbro jersey as well, it was all black with a white stripe running the length of the shoulders (similar to Arsenal's current shirt style). I even think we wore that in WCQ against Costa Rica for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bettermirror Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I love the 4th kit for 1996! The White one. We came close to the reverse Ajax one - that is the way to go in my opinion,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegan Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 We should get a kit combo that actually identifies us as a team. Look at teams like Argentina, Croatia, Brazil and even teams closer to home like Mexico. Stick with one sort of template and don't vary too much. I like the idea of an Ajax type kit. That would definitely identify us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soju Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 O/T but Radz scored his first goal for us by beating 3 Brazilians and netting? Anyone have a vid of that? Seeing those 90's kits makes me long for the days of sleeves past the elbow, black boots, collars on the shirts and mushroom hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
