  • The club, owned by Jimmy and Dee Haslam, can not be called the most successful in American football, but it is well known for changing the head coaches almost once in a year.
  • Meaning and history Cleveland Browns have been using an image of a plain helmet for their visual identity since 1970, in order to emphasize their uniqueness and individuality, as they are the only team in the National Football League to not have any logo on their helmets.
  • For the first twenty years, the club had a logo with “Brownie Elf” in two interpretations, and in 2015 the Dawn Dog additional logo was designed.
  • 1959 – 1969 In 1959 the Brownie Elf was refined and the color palette was changed to orange and white, in order to show the energy and dynamics of the team.
  • The contours of the image were modernized and made thicker, the ball was moved to the left hand, as well as the elf’s head was now slightly turned to the left.
  • The symbol stayed with the team for another ten years.
  • 1970 – 1985 The first plain helmet logo was designed in 1970.
  • It was a minimalist yet pretty detailed drawing, which reflected the main specialty of the team and its signature absence of images on their helmets.
  • The helmet was now colored orange and placed in a 3/4 turn.
  • The grille on the new logo was more massive and executed in white and gray in order to add volume and make the drawing more realistic.
  • 1992 – 2005 In 1992 the helmet was refined again, the grille was now all white, with some light gray shades, but the contrast was brighter, that on the previous version.
  • 2006 – 2014 In 2006 the color palette changes from orange and white to orange and gray.
  • 2015 – Today The current version of the rugby club’s visual identity was designed in 2015.
