You know why? It's a simple design that relies on colors and striping. It also has uniformity (the shoulder stripes are matched to the socks). Uniformity in a uniform, huh? It has ZERO Nike branded design elements to it other than the swoosh, which is actually hidden fairly well. Oh, and the design just so happens to incorporate the most successful time in Dolphin history. in describing the throwbacks, you also described the current uniforms. they’re also built on stripes (only 1 instead of 3 which makes it more uniform) and unique color and its only Nike element is the number font which as bad as it is, is actually very conservative compared to others.

Didn't they post some uniform schedule with striped socks that turned out to be a nothingburger? 4 hours ago, MJWalker45 said: Never trust social media from teams. It's meant to show off the artist's abilities, not upcoming changes. I should've added that caveat. Still cream/off-white or lightish gray are the only colors that the Browns should ever consider adding their palette.

If they were going to an off white helmet that's the only time it'd make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See your point, but having the same striping all over the uniform makes my eyes hurt. Looks like someone with OCD designed them. Also, Brown sandwiching the orange on the white pants has never looked good to me. Don't really care anymore though after what the Browns did last night. I can't take it anymore, so they can keep the horrible uniforms because they are the harbingers of hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure. Obviously, the individual pieces of the identity have their own aesthetic struggles (logo, wordmark, numbers, etc.), but I much prefer the vibe of the current uniform to the throwback. The brighter aqua is distinctive and the lack of stripes reinforces the notion that it represents a vast body of water. It has a cleanliness that evokes the streamlined, deco-style forms without being a novelty. 4 hours ago, NikeRuinsEverything said: See your point, but having the same striping all over the uniform makes my eyes hurt.

There’s little interest if everything matches, and it really does tire out your eyes (most times). There are ways to make it succeed, but it usually involves simplifying other elements, like logos or type, which many people apparently don’t like, either.

They got the old stripes and word mark mixed with the new numbers. You'd think a major sports company would at least TRY to get it close, wouldn't you? I think it might be intentional because it’s riffing off the endless QB NOB jersey which is the old style. concepts: washington football (2017) ... nfl (2013) ... yikes potd 10/20/12 origin story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VDizzle12 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Probably nothing, but the Browns official site was just redesigned featuring the elf. Along with the script endzones from last season and the training camp logo, it does feel like they are going retro with everything. We'll see if it lasts...

Bathysphere Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 As discussed in the other threads, they’re doing some kind of “earn your stripes” campaign for the preseason where the players are stripeless until they earn their spot on the 53-man roster.

kimball Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 So should we just expect the Browns to go stripeless this year? "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific." Lily Tomlin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
