In recent years, Colorado State has experimented with different color schemes and helmet designs to create a more modern and dynamic aesthetic. Some iterations have incorporated metallic accents, unique patterns, or even camouflage elements. These contemporary designs have helped to revitalize the Rams' brand and appeal to a younger generation of fans.

The standard sleek modern Rams head in a green circle is common on a white shell, however some throwback style pieces have come out on game day with the retro orange tinted Ram wearing a sailor-style cap with "CSU" on it.

In the late 20-teens, the modern "Sunshine-C" logo in red and gold augmented the white shells with blue stripes.

Regardless of the specific design, the Colorado State Rams helmets consistently maintain a sense of tradition and pride. The ram's head logo, a symbol of strength and resilience, remains a constant feature across various iterations. Whether it's the classic design or a more modern interpretation, the Rams' helmets serve as a visual representation of the team's spirit and commitment to excellence.
