BelfourThibault Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Apologies in advance if this has been posted...I haven't seen it here yet. Last night the Cincinnati Cyclones unveiled their new logo and white jersey. I was a fan of the set prior to this. I liked the tornado logo as well as the colors. These are pretty horrible, in my opinion...big downgrade. What are your thoughts?Edit: Just saw CC's tweet from last night with the announcement. Delete this if necessary.

Ben5 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Huge upgrade. This looks like the logo for a professional team. The last one did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinturner95 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I think it's a little '70s but I like it more than the previous  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFB Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It's a downgrade of pretty monumental proportions, IMO. That's not a bad shoulder patch/wordmark update, but I thought that little Cyclone guy was almost at legend status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The logo looks (like someone said) a 70s WFL logo. The black accents on the bottom are really weird...what's with the angle? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Wait, this was the old one?I don't like the type or the triangle, but the mascot logo on its own is so much better than the new one.

LAWeaver Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I'm not a fan of the new logo, but it's an improvement. The hurricane is not centered. Plus, if you look at the base of the black 'spikes' from the hurricane, (the outer black outline), it's curved instead of pointed. It bugs me every time I see it @loganaweaver - Twitter / @loganaweaver - Instagram / Nike Vapor Untouchable Football Template / Logan's Logos  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelfourThibault Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 Here's the full set. And I know that I've already made my opinion known on the new set, but every time I look at it, all I can think of is "beer league version of the Carolina Hurricanes".New: Old: (alternate) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Well, at least the old logo had character.... I like the concept of the new logo, but not too crazy on the font though. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 "GIVE ME A C!"It always bothered me how the old white jersey was predominantly black and yellow with small traces of red that weren't noticeable from the stands. I know the Stingers of the WHA wore yellow and black, but I don't like anything in the city wearing Pittsburgh's colors so I'm glad they've changed.The jerseys are....odd. I don't know what the stripe is supposed to be or why one of the little dashes is a different color, but I think they're sort of cool in a weird way. It's a nice change of pace from what they've been wearing the last decade. I'm a fan of the logo, though it feels more like a shoulder patch than a primary crest logo. I thought "Twister" had gotten stale and the Cyclones wordmark was one of the most amatuerly rendered logos in all of minor or major professional sports so I'm glad they moved on from him. Overall, I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 The asymmetry of the design is pretty aggravating, and re-using the crest on the shoulders is lazy. I'm expecting a name/number font that doesn't match anything to top it off.

rvrdgsfn Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I like the gray jersey and the logo has grown on me. I'm still trying to figure out what the stripes at the bottom mean though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
