Sodboy13 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 The standalone Sears Tower works a lot better on the secondary than it does on the primary. I like the secondary quite a bit. It feels like all the elements on the primary don't quite go together.

The_Admiral Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 The Sears Tower doesn't look right with a symmetrical rendering. It's a 3x3 of towers of varying heights, no good way to divide by two there. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green27 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Way better and less Create-A-Team than their old one! Looking at the new roundel logo, I start to see a little bit of the last-gen Nuggets secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaz Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Not crazy about the way the Sears Tower is represented but the overall idea is solid and a vast improvement over their old logo. Good to see the WNBA teams have somewhat professional logos (though most of the names are still dumb); hopefully the Mercury and Dream are next.

MJWalker45 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Hopefully that primary is what they put on the chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Akronite- Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Huge upgrade! I just wish there was a way to add clouds to the identity without it feeling forced or stupid, because that would be a unique element. But the colors and simple design is great in both logos IMO.

Unfortunately, the Sky have gone not only with the sponsor across the chest, but also a secondary sponsor below the shoulder, where other sponsored teams typically put their badge-style logo. With that and Nike using the most generic possible template for every WNBA team, the jersey has no team-specific features, save for the colors.

_DietDrPepper_ Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Tbh, it’s a downgrade for me, always liked the previous one, it wasn’t perfect but it wasn’t much more interesting and less generic than the new one Follow the NFA, and My Baseball League here: https://ahsports.boardhost.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and giving each team their own look would help a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm with Sodboy's point- that Sears Tower on its own lacks something in the primary. The old logo at least worked in a couple other recognizable buildings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKC BUZZ Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 All I see in the 'net' is Russell Westbrook's W logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltravisjr Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Good idea but I think the Hancock building would have been better. It's symmetry, tapered height, and diagonals would have lent themselves nicely to this design and it is a unique and recognizable Chicago building.
