daniel75 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Hate that logo, the fin is too far up on the head, also the s looks like a forced afterthought and strangely placed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be a small detail, but that just doesn't look like the teeth of a shark at all. A shark's teeth are clearly separated. Does this bother anyone else?

henburg Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I'm really not a fan of those new Sharks logos at all, the shading style made them look dated as soon as they were revealed. The current primary is not perfect but the form of it is more unique and just better overall. That being said, I'm all on board for the fin logo to make a comeback.

Your absolutely right, after all it’s not an illustration. I still find it funny when people say the Bucs flag is too clean looking for a pirate flag.

Bayne Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I actively dislike everything about what the Sharks are using for their identity. They could so easily have such a cool, distinctly iconic set yet they have chosen to mash together a bunch of cartoon logos with a weak jersey design, not to mention the totally useless addition of orange. I'd say them and Ottawa are the two teams that are totally missing the mark on what is a strong foundation that they could build a solid identity around. I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFGiants58 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I’m a Sharks fan, and I believe that they’ve never had a top-notch look. While I like the first jersey set and color scheme (while also maintaining a soft spot for the fin set), I’ve never liked any of their logos. They’re either too cartoony, too dull, or just off-putting. MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's worse, a team that knows how and desires to build a visual identity, but just can't put it all together, or a team that simply has no concern at all for building a visual identity?

ldconcepts Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I’m all for bringing the fin back, but it just doesn’t work with any of the Sharks’ other logos. It would have to be recoloured to work (black with a teal highlight). Twitter: @ldconcepts / Instagram: @ld.concepts / Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The updated fin logo really should be the shoulder logo instead of what they have now. Definitely should have been the shoulder logo when they made the Reebok Edge switch over. The original fin logo will probably come back on a retro jersey for a game or two, if not on a retro inspired alternate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The round logo just looks off to me. Maybe it’s the white waves, or the unbalanced treatment with the fin so far to one side. But it’s just not good. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

Morgan33 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 The Sharks first Edge jerseys were so much better than what they wear now. If your going to use orange trim, embrace it. Having the orange piping on just one side of the sleeve-stripe defies logic and taste. It's like they couldn't decide on removing orange all-together and went with a lazy compromise. There were really only three things that needed to happen to this set. The removal of the front numbers, the removal of the shoulder yokes and the implementation of the logo below as a shoulder patch. 22 hours ago, ldconcepts said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
