Captain Tsubasa Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Nice update to your Sockers wordmark! And the kits are also gorgeous. That aside, without wanting to kick off any Euro/US naming debate, I would recommend to call the team San Diego SC instead. The SC would double up as "Soccer Club" as well as "Southern California". And with this name Sockers would still work as nickname too. Edit: For the crest I would really love to see some evolution of the current Sockers crest. I love how they emulated the concept from Boca Juniors and include a star for each championship into their crest. Especially if they "move up" into MLS it would be nice to pay homage to all the old titles in this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCM0313 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 ...after a few years they'd be the Los Angeles Sockers, so you better design for that too, amirite? (Ducks.) Too soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Very nice! I really like this color scheme and have wanted someone else in MLS use it. Brightens up the league quite a bit.

BigRed618 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Not bad. That's about the best you can hope for from a name like Sockers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaipod Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I really like this. If the San Diego ever did get an MLS team, I would be more than happy with them adopting this logo and uni set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with this name Sockers would still work as nickname too. I'd split the difference and do what they do in Seattle - San Diego Sockers SC. That way they could be the Sockers but have some kind of differentiation from the indoor team. Also, since those 13 stars on the crest are for indoor soccer championships, I think it would be wrong to have an outdoor MLS team co-op that.

Berlin Wall Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 That's great. You cought the feeling of the 70s very well in that logo and I would love to see something like this in the MLS. Would be refreshing somehow. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowski Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I like the pop of the logo, it really draws me in. Not to mention it's a blatant middle finger to the Chargers which is too perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben7 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I really like the colors (would love a touch of orange tough ) and overall clean uniform design, but the logo itself, not so much. The logo should have some kind of SD iconography (as the Sockers current logo does, with the unmistakable SD skyline and Coronado bridge) and a bit more focus on San Diego, rather than the team name. the San Diego Soccer Club actually has a pretty cool logo too. overall shape similar to the SD city seal Iconograpy Sun/Palms/Beach and Balboa Park or some typical local architecture San Diego font looks kinda neat with the little edges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdolce Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Why incorporate "1973" in the circular logos when Sockers moniker est. 1978. Otherwise, all four look good. Re-post with 1978? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawk36 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Aren't teams going away from the soccer ball in logo thing? I'd love to see the team be named the Sockers but don't think it needs a soccer ball. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
