    That's not a bad design, excluding the ridiculous number set.

    That toes the line between modern and classic. I'd like to see it with brown pants, however.

    exactly if you exclude the number font.

    where's the brown stripe/stroke on the helmet as it is on the sleeves, which is a mainstay of the classic browns helmet?

    Right. It's not supposed to change according to Haslam. Or did he not say it quite that way? I can't recall. Maybe just that it would be orange with no logo.

    Too much orange. And I don't care for the numbers either. Other than that, my first thoughts are I don't hate it.

  • This is just BS filler until draft day...

    Mock up from a guy who knew the supposed insider. The insider described the numbers as smoke columns, but I think he's got smoke columns confused with smokestacks, because this looks like Cartoon Network. I'd like to see another mock-up thrown together with normal looking numbers. The orange is good color. Replace the orange pants with brown. Keep the original helmet, and I could be okay with this.

    These would be the ugliest uniforms in the league. I think we have the nicest Jerseys now and I'm not sure why we want to change.

  • Im not big on the uniform stuff but when we were overseas the last time my roommate and I used to play some madden and I used to always change the unis to orange top and brown pants. It looked pretty sweet, so when I heard about the orange it was pretty interesting.

    Oh I threw up a little on my phone when I saw the mock up.

    Looks like a Halloween costume. Terrible.

    If the Browns came out with these uniforms, the situation would resemble the scene in Frankenstein where the villagers come out with torches and pitchforks to kill the monster. In this case, they would not be after Boris Karloff, but Jimmy Haslam.

  • Haha, pretty much

    Nah, some Arena League stuff. I hope Haslam has more sense and respect for tradition before he approves something like that.

    I think that is way off. My bet is they tinker with the current unis, maybe add an alternate uni, maybe make the orange the primary, widen the pinstripes a bit, and use a flat orange instead of the shiny on the helmet (which id dig).

    yeah, that's something i think we can all live with. but what you are saying right there is not a HUGE DRASTIC TREMENDOUS changing of the uniform as reported by some.

    If they had those unis then they should just change their name to the Creamsicles.

    why would they want to make orange the primary, other than Haslam's ties to the Vols? I hope he's reviewed the Bengals ORANGE look

    I like the Bengals orange look and the only reason I wouldn't approve the browns wearing orange is because its already too much orange in one division

  • The Bengals' major problem is their god awful fucking striped helmet

    Looks like they stole that idea straight out of Rollerball

  • Get the helmet to what it is now, change those Atari numbers and get rid of the grey socks and it would be decent.

    I think it's a pinstripe on either side of the gray stripe.

    I'm actually a big fan of the thick stripe look on the helmet, I believe I posted something last year about it.

    I'll see if I can dredge it up.

    EDIT:

    @tim-couch-pulls-out said:

    I don't think anyone is advocating adding tael or fuschia.

    I, too, want what you described. I want the overall look of the jerseys to stay the same, but modernized. I don't think we need any sort of drastic changes whatsoever. I believe that a jersey similar to Seattle's would be nice, with the orange used as an accent color on larger, more modern numbers.

    I think changing the helmet stripe minimally would go a long way. I'd personally like to see them emulate what OSU has done, widening the middle stripe, making the middle stripe metallic while the outside stripes are matte.

    We do not need a logo on the helmet. Our helmet stripe IS the logo. It's the focal point of the helmet and is easily recognizable. Accentuating that is all we need.

  • Eh better not to speculate. I like that mockup minus the numbers and orange on orange. But it's not worth guessing IMO. Let's just win with the old style this year.
