The Cleveland Browns are the latest to unveil new helmets and “new” throwback uniforms. On Tuesday, after following in the footsteps of the hastily-drawn Detroit Lions, Cleveland revealed its latest look for the 2023 season.
The Brown will officially wear a new white helmet with an orange stripe going across the middle. And they’ll pair that helmet with some classic 1946 throwback uniforms — a.k.a. one of the last times the team was good. They’ll wear this combination three times in 2023, and honestly, it’s not all that bad of a look!
I mean, the helmet could use some work — it looks like a glorified high school metal cap — but overall, these are quite sound. It’s not an awful idea to tap into Cleveland’s glory days, too:

The Browns could’ve easily screwed this up — they kind of already did with a new modern dog logo. So, at the very least, they salvaged their fashion sense with these threads.
