The Cincinnati Bengals have released their new look that will carry the team forward. The new look is a clash of clean and sleek design elements allowing for the colors and helmets to take center stage. The striping on the shoulders and pants have been simplified to allow them to stand out and be more bold against the uniform. Across the chest of each jersey is the classic Bengals wordmark. The numbers for the uniform have had a slight angle added to mimic the design of Paul Brown Stadium and that of a bengals claw mark. The numbers took their inspiration from the number set worn in the 80s, with less of a drop shadow but still maintaining the outline. The finishing touch on the jersey comes on the inside of the collar where Paul Brown’s signature is found embroidered in. The bengals will have three different pants options to go along with the new look that feature the updated striping down the sides.
