bucknut42 304 Posted January 12 Ditto^ I can't find one single thing that is wrong with this rebrand. It cleans up a shipwreck of a logo, and still maintains a classic feel. No criticisms here. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vtgco 362 Posted January 12 This is a massive upgrade, and it looks really amazing! My main concern that there are three different fonts being used in this identity (serif S cap logo, Western wordmark, script) when two would probably do (serif + script?) I like the bubbles but I'd be curious to see a version without. More outstanding work! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't mind them all on the primary logo too much (a more simple font for the letters around the outside might be nice), but I think the wordmark and jersey script (the Stockton one) might be better if they matched the "S" in the alternate logo. Overall, great stuff though. Definite upgrade! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woody86 31 Posted January 12 I work in stockton, and I think this does a better job than their primary set at capturing the blue-collar feel that the city possesses. I would love to see you also reimagine their alternate looks which pay homage to agriculture and the parent club (Oakland A's). Great work!! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheHealthiestScratch 121 Posted January 13 I love the work, but I opened this thread hoping so much for a Stockton Ports “Mighty Asparagus” update. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nate.sweitz 873 Posted January 13 Wow. Huge upgrade. Clean and modern, but still fun enough to work for the Minors. It's crazy to me that some organizations willfully use such outdated logos, especially when there are so many designers out there that are more than capable of building great brands for them. Case in point. Would love to see some caps and unis! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks a lot, TheHealthiestScratch. To be honest, I didn't even think of such an update. I was solely focussing on modernizing their mark by putting some heavy emphasis on the "Port City" theme. Thanks, guys! Much appreciated. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake3.roo 275 Posted January 18 I would also like to see what the identity would look like without bubbles. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottyeagle 170 Posted January 18 I know it would be difficult to reproduce in smaller sizes, but could you provide a little more detail to the baseball atop the anchor so it looks less like a tennis ball? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeauxColonels 647 Posted January 18 Looks great. The one thing that stands out to me is the baseball. It just seems forced on top of the anchor and could use some reworking to have it better integrated, IMO. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brave-Bird 08 848 Posted January 18 J F C dude This might be the best concept package I've ever seen on these boards. The details are PERFECT. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But there are no white tennis balls with red seams! The Independent Baseball club Joliet Slammers – and other teams in the MiLB – have baseballs in their logos that have the same low level of detail. I like it a lot. Plus, I think it fits a lot better into that whole fun-themed MiLB design style.

Firstly, the logo would have a little bit too much unused light blue space, and secondly, these bubbles add that aforementioned typical "MiLB fun-theme" aspect to the mark which I wouldn't want to miss. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
