Browns will have Gray Face masks and the stripes on the pants will go back to orange brown orange. they will also change the jersey stripes

eM

Is this now a permanent change or will it just be used as an alt for 2006 as was reported earlier?

EDIT- my fault; I thought the first post on the old thread mentioned it would be an alt; however, it just says they didn't know if it would be an alt or a change.

At any rate, much like what the Colts did for 2004 it's not a major change to their look, just a team that currently wasn't too far off their "historic" look returning to the "old days".

Grey facemasks is the worst current trend in the NFL, IMHO.

In my opinion, the only non-silver-or-gray helmeted teams in the NFL that could get away with Gray facemasks now are the Giants (to match their pants) and the Steelers (to match the gray circle in the logo.) Anyone else, it just doesn't seem right.

Their white facemask with that helmet is amazing, why deviate from that???

Must disagree - white facemasks are too bland for me. Even a gray facemask is an improvement....

I agree with the first poster. The white facemask *pops* and makes the unis as a whole more visually appealing. Going from a white facemask to grey is going from interesting to boring.

When was this change reported as being an alt?

EDIT - I just went back and reread the first post on the other thread from November, and I was wrong - it just says they don't know if it would be an alt or a permanent change.

Ahh, the throwback craze continues..... :rolleyes:

The Browns uniform was already a "throwback". I guess they think with their "new" additions to the uni, that 1970's fashion is making a comeback. Those grey facemasks, orange/brown/orange stripes on the pants, the busy sleeve stripes and multicolored striped socks will really look "dy-no-myte!". Hopefully Otto Graham re-signs and doesn't sign with the Chicago Cardinals.

Say goodbye to the orange pants too (the only interesting part of their recent uniform; it made them unique in the NFL).

Sad thing is that you could really do something nice with brown/orange (think Virginia Tech) in a updated uniform. Ohh well......

what is so wrong with a classic look? especial for a team with a history as rich as the browns?

They already had a classic look that fit they're tradition.

Now they're going retro just to go retro...and they're getting uglier in the process.

I'm not sure what the new sleeve striping will be, but I doubt as if it is as good as what they have right now.

Grey is not only an awful choice because it doesn't fit the Browns color scheme at all, but also because grey facemasks look absolutely horrid with orange helmets.

Retro for the sake of retro is crap.
