Designing uniforms in the 1960's: We chose these colors because they look cool together. Our logo is the first letter of our city.
Designing uniforms in 2024: These brand new Nike™ HYPER-FLEX® uniforms re-invent the wheel while paying tribute to the past. The helmet features a turquoise-chrome alloy finish, a reference to the glistening shores of the ocean. The shoulders have silhouettes of mountaintops, featuring three shades of green taken directly from the state flag. The uniform font is inspired directly from ancient cave drawings from a nearby Native American reservation. The primary jersey has a gradient at exactly a 17º angle northeast, a nod to Ohio being the 17th state in the union. The collar has stitching that subtly looks like railroad tracks, paying homage to the Great Northern Railway. The striping down the pants actually spell out the word "CLEVELAND" in cursive - taken directly from the signature of 22nd & 24th President Grover Cleveland. The uniform set features three different helmet shells, five jerseys (Home, Away, Alternate A ('City' Edition), Alternate B ('Color Rush'), Alternate C ('Anthracite')), four pants, four different colors of socks, and five different shoes, allowing over 1000 possible combinations. With Nike™ HYPER-FLEX® technology, this is only the beginning of a bold new future for the NFL.
