Luke_Groundrunner Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Here it is, the newly unveiled logo of the Bakersfield Condors. The Edmonton Oilers new AHL affiliate will begin play next season.So what does everyone think of the new look Condors? Improvement over the old, or not?

Gothamite Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 I liked it better in the old colors.They could at least have fixed the stick.... The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosrs1 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 So basically just the old logo without the roundel behind it with "Bakersfield" on it in the parent club's colors. Reasonable approach I guess and the same one the incoming former AHL ECHL teams took. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinsUp1214 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 I've always liked the condor itself, but good gravy that wordmark is bad. The "C" is just a bit too rectangular for the rest of the wordmark, and the serifs on the "N", "D", and "R" look pretty awkward. I was hoping they'd have made a new wordmark or just eliminated it altogether.The Condor does look pretty good in Oiler colors, though. I really like the look of it.

dwertman Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 its not the worst of the new AHL team logos IMO...but its far from the best...you guys are right though he does look good in Oiler colors Kings Cross AFC -BIP, Winnipeg Falcons - TNFF, St. Louis Archers - MLF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I think keeping a recolored version of the old logo, and getting rid of the circle, which just cluttered the whole thing up, is a good move. I do wish that they would have addressed some of the sloppy detail that could be cleaned up, as well as the awkward lettering, but as a whole, the angle and crouched position of the condor has always been just right in my opinion.

DelayedPenalty Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I never realized how awful that wordmark is. In the current colors it doesn't stand out against the black of the condor and the dark green and burgundy. The orange makes it pop, and draws attention to how bad it really is. Just the condor on the stick would be a better logo, keep the wordmark separate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 The drop shadow on the word mark should go the other direction. This really confuses the eye. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
