BBTV Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 The white gradient on the pants doesn't go with a yellow jersey, but make it solid and we're in business. Also lose the sleeve numbers and put the blue arch there. And the silly "hello my name is" gimmick needs to go. They should have a yellow jersey though.

Put a solid stripe on the pants and lose the sleeve numbers and I’m good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkerws Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I think it would mirror the blue jersey. Maybe the horn pattern will move up to allow numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 The shade of yellow is too bright in application. Also, a white gradient on the pants wouldn’t look great with a yellow jersey. And what’s with the white shoulder hoop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty friggin' obvious. To be fair... The white panels are the only thing that visually links the bone jersey and pants to the other uniform pieces, because the socks, shoes, and helmets almost always include parts that are white by default. Doesn’t look great, but all bone with no white might be even worse on the whole. On 1/27/2021 at 6:54 PM, Gothamite said: I hear that a lot, but it doesn’t make any sense. Counterfeiters can recreate proprietary fabrics, they can match colors, duplicate custom fonts with ease, and somehow we think they’ll be stymied by vector logos they can download from a hundred sites on the web? Those logos are there for retail jerseys, to promote the brand when worn with street clothes. Neck collar logos are particularly intended to show when a jersey is worn under a jacket. Deterring counterfeiters doesn’t even enter into it. Counter to your point, while custom type *can* be replicated, counterfeiters generally don’t do a good job of it, and the type is by far one of the easiest ways to spot a fake. In support of your point, however, they don’t even get block numbers correct, so maybe it’s more work than is necessary. Fakes can also be spotted by the production and finish in most cases.

After Chicago Fire case I'm not sure if Rams even made any market research. Anyway alternate logo isn't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have a team whose primary logo isn't on the helmets, is it the worst thing? You could do what television partners used to do and use an isolated helmet horn as the logo, but then that looks weird and decontextualized without a blue background, and once you add that, you've basically just made a helmet logo.

Maybe not the worst thing, but it is not good. I think the facemask looks especially weird when rendered in embroidery. A non-helmet logo looks better and more consistent with the rest of the NFL team hats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 As we've discussed on here before, the solution for the Browns is to design a logo that uses an anachronistic helmet model rather than a leaguewide template so that it is recognizable as a distinct primary and not the absence of a logo. Brownie is a fine enough secondary but the plain helmet is the brand at this point. You just have to do a little more work with that fact. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colortv Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 A helmet logo is the least creative and most uninspiring thing imaginable. This should be the Browns logo(doesn't have to be on the helmet). Look how perfectly it fits in with the rest of the league.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC, someone made a helmet out of a C and B that didn't look forced. I'm about to attempt to use the search "feature" to find these... wish me luck.
