Change Is Coming..
-
How many other teams have changed their uniforms?
San Diego
Denver
New England
Tampa Bay
Jets
Giants
Bills
Lions
Eagles
Falcons
So why not us?
San Diego-traditionally wore white helmets
Jets-switched back to their classic uniforms
Giants-hardly qualifies as a change
Bill-switched back to traditional look
Lions-hardly qualifies as a change
Eagles-not much of a change, more of an update
San Diego-traditionally wore white helmets
Jets-switched back to their classic uniforms
Giants-hardly qualifies as a change
Bill-switched back to traditional look
Lions-hardly qualifies as a change
Eagles-not much of a change, more of an update
The Giants was also not really a change as much as it was going back to their traditional "ny" on the helmet vs. the GIANTS on the helmet that they went with for a few years.

I canot wait to see this board blow up next yr, when they bring out the helmet. It will be great...LOL

Didn't happen.

A Browns fan that hates the color brown.
I don't have to like the color brown to be a fan asshole.

These guys and there gay uniform threads.

This topic comes up every year.
That said, if it was determined we needed more color, I wouldn't mind bringing back the orange pants.

I don't care if we wear pink pants, just as long as we wear some brown jerseys at home. All white is great... if you have built a winning tradition behind it. going 4-12 with it last year left a very sour taste in my mouth.

I remember the changes the Indians made in their uniforms when they exploded in the 90's. They started winning in the ones they already had.

Nike has an NFL contract starting next year. If we ever were to see a change for the Browns then it would happen this offseason. But I don't expect it to be very drastic at all. As much as I love uniforms like Oregon and Maryland, I just don't think it fits the Browns.
I did this mock up a few months ago, keeping the same tradition but mixing it up.
I like the idea of a different helmet, but I was thinking Brown with matte paint. Maybe white and orange stripes, white numbers on the sides, and brown facemask?
a paint finish similar to what Wyoming wears.
I love these. Nothing wrong with something new and a side of tradition to go with it. These are very sharp and make our colors wearable. Is it a magic fix, absolutely not, but it helps. I remember playing soccer in High School and we go new uni's my freshmen year, and tell ya what, it does help bring out a little more confidence when you like how you look.
But the biggest cure will be winning, hands down.

Uni's were a big topic on KNR yesterday. I say let's do it.

Leave the damn uniforms alone! No logo on the helmet either! Awwww poor little younger generation needs to have flashy uniforms to get behind their team! Too effin' bad! It's football! Not a fashion show! If you're not going to support your hometeam, along with the name history and colors that Cleveland Browns fans fought to keep, then go cheer for another team!

Oh, I wouldn't mind some changes to the uniforms themselves. I have seen some good looking mockups at various times on here. But, obviously the Browns/White/Orange color scheme must stay....and absolutely no helmet logo.

I agree. Any of the mocks above would work just fine for me.
I prefer white on white, but if some of the examples shown fired up a new generation of fan who hasn't been able to get fired up over the play, then so be it.
Our helmet is unique. That better not change.

Roo the middle uni is awesome as an alternate, nice job on all of them really.
honestly i might even like a white top/brown pants based upon what i see here.
i don't mind admitting an alternate brown matte logo-less helmet with striping of thin white, wide orange, thin white might have the power to get me cheering slightly louder ballpeen. but only on occasion, of course.....wide open can only sustain turbo for short intervals.

It's not that I need flashy uniforms to get behind the team, it's that every time I see that orange helmet,
IT REMINDS ME OF LOSING!!!!! Sometimes change can be a good thing. Just sayin'. -
Where's Tampa? Gee- your "inside info" was a crock. Us oldsters AHEM- had it right all along. Those Nike mockups were all bullshit too.

My mockups were just ideas I had to change the uniform up a bit. They were in no way based on fact/rumors. If you don't like my ideas I respect your opinion, I just think you could have had a better choice of words than "bullshit."
I believe Tampa was the one commenting about the silver helmets, radical changes etc. I repeated told him not to expect anything drastic for this season and he didn't believe me. Now with a new owner the topic has resurfaced a few times and Haslam has stating he will do some research and even hire focus groups to decide the look of the Browns going forward. Does this mean change? Who knows. But it has become a possibility.

Lets fave the facts, The Cleveland Browns are not winning any most popular team contest. NFL fans really could care less about the Browns. A Couple of reasons
1. Losing Record 11 of the past 12 yrs
2. No Big Names that the Fans can get behind (like Rodgers, Ray Lewis, AP, Etc, Etc)
3. Not growing fan base- People are leaving Cleveland as fast as they can. Example: My brother left Cleveland and moved to Florida when he was 20 he is a hardcore Browns, Buckeyes, Tribe, Cavs fan like myself. His daughter who is 16 yrs old is a big sports fan (great softball player) When ask who her fav teams are she says Florida Gators and Tampa Bay Bucs. People ask how your Uncle and Dad are huge Cleveland Fans, she says why would I root for the Browns and Buckeyes when I do not live there and never have been there. Point is there is A LOT OF KIDS OUT THERE THAT THINK THE BROWNS ARE A JOKE. This Generation is key for the Browns (2-18 yrs old) to build there fan base.
4. Uniform lacks what 2010 and beyond is all about. People want to wear something that they think is "Cool"
5. Really people who care a tradition is people who have not won anything. You think the New England, Balt, Pitt, Green Bay care about what the team did 50 yrs ago. of Course the players will say they do, because they do not want to piss of the old timers in football.
6. ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE NEVER SEEN JIM BROWn. To us hes the greatest running back ever, but ask a Bears fan who is the greatest?
What can we do to pump up the Browns
1. Start winning DUHHHHH
This will piss off people, but some do not know the complete history of the Browns.
Ready....Change the UNIFORM.
What a lot of people do not know is that the Browns use to have 2 helmets..Solid white (1946β1949); solid white for day games and solid orange for night games (1950β1951); orange with a single white stripe (1952β1956); orange with a single white stripe and brown numerals on the sides (1957β1959); orange with a brown-white-brown stripe sequence and brown numerals on the sides (1960); orange with a brown-white-brown stripe sequence (1961β1995 and 1999βpresent).
If the Browns went to more of a updated look, we will draw the younger generation. Kids DO NOT WANT TO WEAR BROWN. The Browns are working on a change. It might piss some people off, but this is what it is. As soon as my "resource gets me a pic" I will get on here, helmet- silver with 1 orange stripe down the middle and 2 Brown stripes next to it. On the side of the Helmet will be a "B" yes it will have a logo.
Orange Socks
Pants will be same color as helmet with Brown strip highlighted with Orange, Jerseys will will be more modern as well, Silver replacing the white look, with more Brown and Orange stripes down the side, They will have a VERY DARK BROWN for there other Jersey with same striping (replace the Brown with Silver)
What it sounds like they will introduce the new helmet and Jersey at the NFL draft.
I know some of the old timers will bepissed and I am sure they will tell how stupid it is, but the fact is you are not getting any younger. These kids are ones who are buying the uniforms and gear the Cleveland Browns
EVERY TEAM GOES THRU CHANGE.
It is coming, so get use to it. You will still root for the Browns because that is your Love. They will just look a little different thats all

Brown is definately a homely color, but your team is called the BROWNS so your uniforms have to include that color. You are never going to have the "coolest" uniform on the block, so get over it.
