Uglybus Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I don't like the uniform badge. It's just too... empty. "Okay, Mr. OKC, you obviously have never been to Louisville." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's too much blank space and the curved text just looks off. Is that official? Because from what I've read, it's just a mock up of what it COULD look like. Which I hope is true.

14er Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Concerning the arm badges, I wonder what the lion head would look like inside the old pentagon outline? Use nothing but the lion head inside, and keep some continuity with the pentagon shaped background. It may create some issues with the negative space, but I think I'd like that better than a circle.

Gothamite Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 They had issues with blank space in the last one. I'd like to see them embroider or heat-transfer the lion alone directly on to the sleeves. They could choose a contrasting color for each shirt. Like MLS, customizing the color of the logo to each team. And no need for a circle outline or even text. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

RyanMcD29 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I like the lion head but not much else about the new logo. The purple color's a little too out of left field, I don't like the font choice, and the patch application (if that's the real deal) looks too much like something for an amateur league than one of the biggest leagues in the world. Not to mention the circle and purple is going to clash with a ton of kits around the league. The Champions League patch works because it's black and white even though it's circular. This one doesn't based on that mockup. Personally, I would've kept the sponsorless logo they've got now That being said, they've got a good thing going with the new lion head so hopefully they center everything around that instead of the wordmark.

Gothamite Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Now that we've seen them in action, I've found an instance where I like the new logo much, much better than the old: on the refs. That's gorgeous. Simple, bold. Doesn't need any lettering. I really wish they would use that on the sleeves of players, instead of the circle-version. Use the dark-crown version for clubs with white or light-colored sleeves like Arsenal or West Ham. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Of course the right sleeves will now have adverts as well so we'll only have to deal with this one side of the shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the dark-crown version for clubs with white or light-colored sleeves like Arsenal or West Ham. Right. The circle robs the lion's head of its impact. And the lettering, a modern sans serif font, clashes badly in tone with a classically-inspired image such as that. The lion's head alone would be a fine logo for the players as well as for the officials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uglybus Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 What if the Premier League pulled an MLS and gave each team a different colored lion? "Okay, Mr. OKC, you obviously have never been to Louisville." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most leagues keep a limit on colors for the logos so I think anyone other than MLB & MLS would sign off on this. With the possibility of striping on sleeves it could help the logos stand out more.

Gothamite Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Update, just so this doesn't get lost in the megathread: the Premier League unveiled the new number set that will accompany this logo going forward. There will be five approved colorways: white with black details and black, navy, red, and yellow; all with white details. Here's the full set: I like that they're using the lion head on its own here. That really should be the default. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Remember, this was the set originally released as a possible option when the logo was unveiled: They made the right choice going back to the drawing board.
