Searching for perspective on the 2013 Indians
August 13, 2013Peter King: “I was just as wrong for jumping on Kosar”
August 13, 2013It’s been a while since we’ve done a contest with our partners at GV Art and Design. They have certainly been busy, launching a brand new beautiful store in Lakewood, Ohio on Detroit Avenue! The grand opening was last weekend and they had a fantastic turn out with a line that stretched around the block on Saturday afternoon.
Not only did they open the new store, but they debuted six new shirts as well. They launched new Bernie Kosar and Webster Slaughter designs, as well as a couple of landmark shirts of the Terminal Tower and bridge guardian. The Cleveland beer tap shirt is certain to be a hit, but the biggest reaction so far has been for the Team Cleveland design.
So today we are giving away one of the Team Cleveland shirts. To enter, simply leave a comment with an answer to the question below. Be sure that the email address you use to comment is current, as that is how the winners are notified. One entry per household please.
Today’s Question: Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
Please restate the question before you answer. Good luck, and congratulations to GV Art on the new store!

Commenting only to say that I ordered the Team Cleveland shirt yesterday! Saw a Pittsburgh equivalent yesterday and I was thoroughly unimpressed. And not just because it was from Pittsburgh.
I will buck the system by saying I don’t want any of them to be redone. I like the Cavs varieties, Indians I think are standard fare and once again against the grain I like the Indians logo, (yes Chief Wahoo too) but most of all, I don’t want the Browns helmet changed. It’s us as in CLE – solid, not flashy. World wide the HELMET is known for NOT having a logo. I would like to see more brown and orange on the uni’s a little less white because the white is the least color on the helmet.
Indians are long due for an update.
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone? I’d like to see the Cavs redone. Too many things about the current uniform still say Lebron.
That’s why I said “get a chance to wear” instead of “wear”.
A guy can dream, can’t he?
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
Definitely not a fan of the Ketchup and Mustard Cavs jerseys, so for a completely redone uniform I have to go with the Cavs. The Browns uniform is a classic, and I like the Indians recent touches to their uniform. I would like to see the Tribe go back to the crooked C as a symbol. Its the best and most unique of the symbols they have used and I like the symbolic nod to the “crooked river” aka the Cuyahoga.
Which Cleveland team uniform would I love to see get a makeover? I would love to see the Cleveland Indians get a uniform makeover! I feel as though the Cavs get redone every couple years and the Browns have a clean look going for them. The Indians definitely need a fresh look and maybe even incorporate the chief wahoo somehow.
Probably the only way a sports team from Cleveland will get to call itself “world champions.” Here’s a thought have each of the sports teams adopt the same uniform. That’ll blow Peter King’s and the rest of the liberal mainstream media’s minds!
As for the dreaming absolutely last night I pummeled J-honny Depp and made Amber Heard mine!
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would I like to see completely redone? The Lake Erie Monsters of course. Bring back the Lumberjacks! I love that beaver!

The Indians – let’s move on from Wahoo – I love how GV and other Cle designers have been embracing other symbols – the feather, tepee, totem pole, etc. that are some better alternatives. I even like the idea of relating more to the “Tribe” aspect (that idea was a finalist in the UniWatch redesign). Just don’t touch the Browns!
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone: Browns – no more all white uni’s!
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
I like all the team’s uniforms, but if I had to choose I wouldn’t mind seeing a different Cavaliers uniform. I really liked the 80s-style uniforms, I thought that color scheme was fantastic. I love the Browns jerseys, we need to wear the orange pants and brown jersey again, just once.
I really love the shirt, hoping I get lucky. Can’t wait to visit the store and take in my first Browns game later this year.
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
Indians. I like the regular ones, but I wish the alternate home/away jerseys would be a little more creative, incorporate a little more red/chief wahoo.
Today’s Question: Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
Cavs.
‘Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely designed?’. Have to go with the Browns with no change to helmet..Cav’s/Indians have too many options to address.

The Browns desperately need new uniforms. Leave the helmets alone, if you really insist on keeping the history and tradition, but the whole rest of the uni should change. Why cant they sport all brown uniforms a couple times a year? Or gray jerseys and pants with brown and orange accents? Honestly, with no logo or true mascot they are a blank slate and Nike would have a field day with new designs.
And wouldn’t new uniforms be a slam dunk business decision? We have proved there is seemingly nothing that will stop fans from buying tickets. Why not force people still walking around in Tim Couch jerseys to upgrade?

I know the “traditional” Clevelanders are going to hate this, but here it goes: COMPLETELY redo the browns! Change them to an old 30’s semi pro team “The Cleveland Skeletons!! Colors: neon green and black, uniforms: glow in the dark rib cage and leg bones with s skull helmet! The dog pound becomes the boneyard and the end zones are dubbed the graveyard! Yea, I hear you “we CAN’T change the browns!! WHY NOT? what has the tradition got us? It’s time for a change!! Once everyone got over it, it would be awesome!! The players would flock and the promotional opportunities are endless! Lets Go Skeletons!!!
I would love to see the Cavs. they look old and dated
Cleveland cavs. Need a more rugged blue collar tough team look
Redo the Browns, going so far to rename the team. Stop trying to compare the Nu-Browns to the team we grew up with. They are not related, they just dress the same.
I’d like a complete makeover of the Cavs look, even though their current one is pretty good. Nothing will ever top the ball-in-net in the V orange and blues. That logo rocked.
Today’s Question: Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
I’m thinking browns. Brown pants orange jerseys
I’d like to see the Browns’ uniforms updated.
I would like the Browns uniform to be redone. Keep the color scheme and the helmet clean, but spice the uni part up.
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
Cavs. I really do not like the uniforms of the rebuilding and I just associate them with losing. I’d rather them go back to the ones of them making the playoffs
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
Cavs uniform. Would like to bring back the old school look just like on GV art and design’s cavs logo shirt.
Today’s Question: Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
personally i was torn between the two teams we rarely discuss on here, but having to pick one, I’m going to go with the Cleveland Gladiators. The color scheme is fine and all, but I think the arena teams uniform is just plain boring, when I think revamping a uniform in onto a more modern, conversation starting layout could be beneficial to the team in the long run, in the vein of some college teams like Oregon and Maryland, for example. There’s a lot of cool schemes they could incorporate, with the helmet even undergoing a change, that I think could get more people interested in wearing the product and becoming more interested to the product on field.

The Browns – every other sports team has had multiple uni redesigns… so it would be a great change of pace. Keep the colors, maybe a deeper brown and brighter orange…but more brown!
Who do I send my address for my shirt?

I would like to see the Cavs uniform changed. I don’t hate the Cavs uniform but I just could not picture the Browns and Indians in anything else.

I’d like to see the Indians redone. I think it’s time to lose chief wahoo completely. Some simpler design centered around a feather would be the way to go.

I would love to see the Browns put something on the side of their helmet.
Definitely the Gladiators. Nothing about that uniform says “Cleveland” to me. I’d start with a logo change. Instead of that C/sword collage, how about a roided out Brownie Elf holding a sword…or better yet, two swords. Said Brownie goes on the helmet. The jerseys should somehow appear similar to chainmail – I’m no designer, so I’ll leave the specific up to the pros over at Russell athletic. The pants can stay the same, but all players will be required to brush fake blood stains on their pants prior to each game, in order to further intimidate the opponent. Last but not least, all players on the team should be required to wear gladiator spikes. What are gladiator spikes? Picture these with metal studs on the bottom: http://cdna.tid.al/3e99fce1a120422e19cc4f306ce29f9239a37655.jpg.
Why stop at the uniforms? Since the Browns just renamed their stadium and I don’t expect them to make another change any time soon, I suggest that the Gladiators – who will be a hot ticket with their new unis – build a new arena on top of the Horseshoe Casino and call it Pandemonium Palace in honor of Nev Chandler. Instead of pyrotechnics, the Gladiators will emerge from the tunnels between two imitation smokestacks in a tribute to NEO’s rich industrial history.
If anyone cares to know, I’ll take a large t-shirt.
Go Browns.

My apologies for posting twice. I forgot to restate the questions initially. Gotta follow protocol…

The Cavs, I suppose. Either that or Chief Wahoo being made more prominent in the Indians.
Definitely not the Browns, of the other 2 I guess I’d go with the Indians? I don’t care about Chief Wahoo and I would like to keep him but if they could come up with something cool I’d be alright with it

Indians – I’m not a fan of the “cream”, and don’t think they have the right shade of red.
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone? Zero they are perfect except occasionally seeing some orange pants!
Which Cleveland team’s uniform would you like to see completely redone?
Probably none. But if any, it would have to be the Tribe. The Cavs are not bad with the wine/gold, and the Browns are too iconic.
definitely reboot on the Browns uniform. Brown is hideous beyond an accent and Orange is overused in sports. not sure who the old guard never want to change guys are but I’m over 50 so at least 1 old vote against current. Agree with deleting Chief Wahoo on the Tribe.
The Cleveland team’s uniform I would you like to see completely redone is the #Browns.
If we were gonna re-do a CLE uniform, its gotta be the Indians alternate home “cream” unis. For starters, I hate the overly retro block-style lettering; it’s boring and unimaginative. Plus, NOBODY looks good in cream. When’s the last time you saw anyone wearing a cream-colored shirt and felt intimidated? Oh right, never. Alternate, particularly Sunday day-game, attire should be a refreshing change of pace that stands out (Remember how everyone looks forward to the SD Chargers powder blue alternates), not drab uniforms that look like they have been sitting in an attic collecting dust for 40 years. I think its time for a remodel.
