Digging Up Old Memories

When the Swift Current Broncos unveiled their retro third jerseys a few years back, they did so with a tie-in to their look at the time, with black running down the arms in addition to the blue and green color scheme and original logo.  This week, the Broncos went all the way, as they unveiled their new home and away uniforms and logo...and it looks a lot like what they wore when they first started, albeit with a few changes.

The "SC" shoulder patch on the left features the city logo with the wheat sheafs circling around it.  The logo itself, as well as the "Four Broncos" patch on the right shoulder, were given an updated look.  As you can see in the picture above, the home and away jerseys are going back to the blue, green, and white of the early days, and I can say it looks good on them.  The color scheme has always been their identity, whether it has been for good (1989 Memorial Cup champions) or bad (the 1986 bus crash that claimed the lives of four Broncos players, hence the patch on the right shoulder).  It's great to see the Broncos go back to their roots, and their fans couldn't be happier.
