habsfan1 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Sacre bleu, that is a beautiful logo! I believe there's no more "Foot". CF Montréal now stands for "Club de Football Montréal", according to reports on a Saputo conference that I didn't hear. It's fine because all their main branding is branded as CF for short, in most if not all scripts. That's how they brand soccer, when there's 2 types of football.

officeglenn Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 It's busy, but I like it. I get what they were going for, and I think they got there for the most part. But they could have heeded Coco Chanel's advice: "Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off." 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Just the shield on its own, minus the circle background, could be used as a secondary logo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdevs7 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 It definitely looks more like the classic Montreal Impact, but it really could have been executed better. Why is the Fleur de Lis cut off??? Why is there a circle behind the shield??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I think all the ingredients were there but they made it unnecessarily cluttered. I tweeted a few times about how much the years overlapping the stripes just barely is killing me. I never do this but I just wanted to see how it looked with some minor tweaks. 4 1 Quote @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrySmalls Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 The new CF Montreal logo has too many elements to it. I wish they ditched the roundel for the shield to have more of an impact or uniqueness in MLS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's awkward that the stripes carry from the roundel onto the shield, but aren't on the inner circle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad they re-tweaked the crest, don't get me wrong, I'm happy the blue color is a bit more prominent, and the stripes and fleur-de-lis are back, but I think it's a bit complex. Drop the roundel and use the central shield shape, and I think you have a crest that's better than 90% of the MLS. Also, I couldn't help but think Inter Miami with the basic "shield surrounded by a roundel" shape: I've got some news for you... This ain't nothing new in soccer lol.

The thing is these logos all use a thin ring with the circle. Montreal's ring is pretty big and ends up looking like they are trying to fit a shield in the inside of a doughnut. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilbert Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 The snowflake wasnt great but this isnt that much better. The Fleur needs to be complete and the Impact needs to return. 2 Quote Signature intentionally left blank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think "Depuis 1993" (which is french for Est. 1993) would have better than just the year by itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_RH_ Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I don't know how making every team wear a god-awful kit helps clean up oceans. But if I have to choose between the oceans and normal kits, time to go pollute! I mean, the peach/pink is totally illegible, and that red on blue isn't much better. Imagine trying to watch all the weekly highlight compilations... lol good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky1324 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I like the Permablue initiative but the jerseys are ugly every year. Surely there's a way to use that material to make a normal-looking jersey for each team - perhaps the default color but with blue highlights? 2 Quote the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Was at the Atlanta United vs Columbus Crew match tonight in the supporters section (point being I was lower level and maybe 15 rows back) and I couldn’t read any of the numbers tonight. Horrible kits. Wish MLS would stop with these junk designs. Not only are they impractical from a functional standpoint, they also look terrible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently LAFC was able to get their primary shirt sponsorship in black, but everyone else is in pink. Austin and LA Galaxy both wearing a Uvalde patch as well today. Still impossible to read numbers on the white jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
