As an homage to the Mustang it kinda works. Not sure the brand has the same broad appeal these days so probably misses the demographic.

The actual lion looks like a 3rd grader drew it, would be better with good artwork.

Agreed. I don't mind the Mustang reference but the logo overall just looks poorly executed.

As far as the logo goes, I don't find it any better or worse than the original honestly. I do like the colors of this alternate though. I think it looks sharp. I do have an affinity for blue/silver combos though

Looks like what you'd see in a Div 3 college helment.

Well I just hope (actually I’m praying) that we go with an actual “TROW BACK” and don’t pull some stupid crap like this.

What I’d actually love is, the throwback colors with the current “angry” Hawk and design.

Just my preference, not trying to win the internet today.

And I’m suspecting that it’s more of a homage to the Auto industry in general.

Wait, they do play at “Ford Field”.

Disregard, but I still think there’s 10k designs that would kick this one’s ass.
Art and design is certainly subjective but HolyCatfish, this is bad if you ask me.

You win.

What you suggested is what I wanted them to do in the first place.

I think the Lions have one of the best color combinations in the league. I'm not sure about these helmets , I think there's so many other possibilities

Always found it odd that such passive colors (blue and silver) are the main colors of a team called the Lions. I feel like red, yellow, orange, etc are much more representative of a lion.

I agree. I loved the light blue and silver color scheme but hated the stoned seagull. It has to rank up there with Tampa Bay's gay pirate as one of the worst logos to have ever been worn on an NFL helmet.

The Mustang II? I see an II on the side... Mustang II, worst car ever made because it ruined the perception of a true Muscle Car.
