I think a few people here would celebrate the death of Kabel, although I will sorta kinda miss it. 1967 leaf with the text from the 35-point block font centred properly?

That's not true block, but it is the most similar to the 35-point font. I was personally hoping for the 1967 font, but this is better than no font.

chcarlson23 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 No doubt anymore that the logo is going to look great, but what about the sweaters? I personally want to see the alt. pattern become the home and the basis for the away. or maybe at the very least thicker stripes on the regular jerseys. But all I'm really hoping for is that the socks stay the same... "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

BigBubba Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Excellent news. I haven't been this excited and/or nervous about an unveiling since, well, ever. (Beats the Blue Jays' 2012 rebrand by a hair.) Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Check icethetics for a mockup of what the logo will look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 The Icethetics mockup should be pretty close, since he says he's seen the new logo. Looks like they knocked it out of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgo Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 (sees logo) (opens wallet) Tis nice. They'll make a killing from me buying both the new stuff and the older stuff on clearance. 6 hours ago, chcarlson23 said: No doubt anymore that the logo is going to look great, but what about the sweaters?

T-ROY Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 It's not that I don't like it, it's just that it's been so long since they've had that logo and it just doesn't feel right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Giant Pacific Octopus Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Am I missing something? Isn't this just the old vintage leaf logo? It looks exactly like it. What did they change? Now remember I'm not like you guys where you'll have pages and pages of heated discussions about the shape of the "n" inside the word Indianapolis or the removal of one little strip on the neck of a jersey. I'm not the kind of guy who notices these things. The Catch of the Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I guess I'm in the minority that thinks the current simple leaf is a better logo than the 35-point version.

KittSmith_95 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 There's a few thing changed about this Leaf, Octo. 1. Double Outline's gone 2. New font used 3. Shape of Leaf 4. Stem isn't curved as much Those are what I see, and this looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was staring at the logo on the chest of the throwback jersey that "Point1" posted and compared it with the bottom leaf that "Dexter Morgan" posted and outside of the removal of the double outline nothing new really jumps out at me. The font looks the same. The Catch of the Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Sounds pretty successful - nothing's supposed to jump out at you. It's obviously intended to be highly evocative of the old, just updated and upgraded in a couple subtle ways. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

I prefer it too. I also have no allegiance to the Maple Leafs, which I think may be part of the appeal of the new/old logo. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
