The team is named Redskins, not witch doctors!

Re: New Helmet Idea

Washington Redskins Logo - Chris Creamer's Sports Logos Page - SportsLogos.Net

I've tried to copy and paste the old feather used from 1959-1964, but have been unable to do so, so here is the link.

The purpose of the feather is the same as a ball cap bill, it was to shield the eyes from the sun.

A little tweak by Summo maybe would help it, but I like it better than the spear, or the R, or the current logo. Maybe on a Gold background as an alternative.

My least fav is the R.

No! to me the feather over the top middle sucked. I never got into it. As far as the Arrow, I think it was with the Skins prior to Florida State using it so if anything they copied the Skins. Plus they use different colors. They actually use the Gold color and most of the time the pants are Gold. I could see us using the all Burgandy top and bottom with the arrow for away games. White top and Burgandy bottoms for home games.

I liked the yellow helmit with the R also. Would be neat if they found a way to use one helmit for away games and another for home games.

Maybe find some way to draw an axe on each side of the helmit. Maybe instead of the face in the circle how about a face taking up the whole side of the helmit and his head dress being the feather down the center?
