New York Yankees Logo Recolorization


TruColor

Recommended Posts

I'd like to see the re-colorized logo against a Navy background because I'm not convinced that it wouldn't work. I think the re-colored logo makes it look sharper...more "Corporate" which fits the Yankee way. The white collar team gets a white collar look. I like it a lot!

I think ICS said that it didn't make sense that the Yankees had a primary logo with that much red in it, and yet they didn't use red at all in their unis. This makes WAY more sense, and looks better as a whole IMO. I like it.

I like the unusual way the Yankees use red, and would not like to see the red changed. But, the Yankee ball outline and script was seen in black on the Topps baseball cards in the 50s. It isn't blue, but, it may be close enough that you can use it as an approximation, if you squint a little:

(1954, 1955, 1958)

As opposed to later cards, that used the more familiar red-lettered logo.

The Yanks should just ditch the bat and hat logo and just use the interlocking NY. And while they're at it, they should also slap some names on their jerseys.

Here's my recolorization against a Navy background:

Here's a different take, only using Gothamite's suggestions:

I have to say that I prefer the red only because it "pops" better against a navy background.

As for other applications, there wouldn't be any problem with it, except my general inclination to dislike teams using multiple recolored versions of their logo (a disease which inflicts the Yankees' neighbors across the Triborough Bridge).
