 And I honestly kind of like it.. The only things I'd change would be to drop the "Belt" at the waistline, it's too busy. And possibly drop the strips on the side of the shoulders. I would match the belt to the darker color between the pants and jerseys. The off set color for the belt makes these look too much like candy corn. Especially if the rumor of changing the orange to a "candy orange" color is true.
Am I perfect? No
Am I trying to be a better person?
Also no

Actually, our current helmets stick out like a pumpkin on a porch.

Not sure about the matte finish, but I do like the darker orange. Is it called burnt orange?

Agreed. That was my desktop background for about 4 months.

I think it would even look better with some orange gloves and shoes accented in brown and white.
Idk about the uniform though the more I look and think about it. I like this picture but I think its mostly just the socks and undershirt that set the uniform off. take those away and you have a plain orange jersey with brown numbers.

Now that's a change in uniforms I could support.

this is one of my favorites so far If the jerseys were that shade of an orange color, then I could absolutely get behind an orange jersey. I think that the numbers would be really hard to see from the stands, or on TV, though.

Not sure about all of it, but I definitely like the helmets a lot better than the pumpkin orange we have now.

I'd go with that for sure.... and I'd be OK with the dark orange metallic helmet as well. Thoroughly updated look, while still keeping in touch with the past.

this is one of my favorites so far I love that look - except for the striped arm bands - they seem a little cartoonish imho...really love the metallic helmet color...

And they are part of an undershirt, which would require players to wear an undershirt with longish sleeves. Not gonna happen.

this is one of my favorites so far The older I get, the more reluctant I am to readily accept change. I've not wanted the team to change the Uniforms in the least for most of my years of fandom for the Browns. I've groused at the thought of it. But damn, that's a great look. Almost mean looking kinda. I may have to change my mind. In fact, I think I just did. LOL

Agree with you about getting rid of the arm-stripes; otherwise, I like 'em. I'm not even a fan of orange jerseys, but those look good to me. Add some brown jerseys and white jerseys, along with some pants in either orange (that orange, not the Sipe era orange) or white, and you'd have a bunch of good looking combos.

Does anyone even know when the new uni's might be announced? Is there a day, a week, or period of a month that other teams release their changes? Just wondering...

From what I remember the NFL has an annual meeting sometime at the end of March or beginning of April that they unveil new uniforms. So expect that last week in March.

I would prefer to keep the jerseys either white or Brown. I would like for the shade of orange to be much darker on the helmets and the uniforms.
We can keep the overall general appearance of uniforms, but gotta get rid of that pumpkin orange color.

No.. just.. no.. Yeah, I think that it would have to be a lighter gray, almost silver type color for it to work, even with a darker orange helmet.

Are those even Brown, they look black - and the chartreuse outlined one, oh my - are we trying to be Seattle?
I really hope those are not the new unis. Whoever picked them needs to be fired if they are.

Those are the Pro Bowl uni's, so they are black. However, I kind of like them if they were Brown. Not in love with them, but they wouldn't be horrible either.

I still hate the helmets. Gotta change them. I don't hate the helmets, but I think that they can be updated, and made to look even better than they do today. I wonder if someone can do up a lighter silver jersey with the darker orange trim, like this orange: (or maybe even a couple of shades darker)
