fishheatcats Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 The new Strikers unveiled their primary logo/crest today as part of the city of Fort Lauderdale's 100th birthday celebration:As a Strikers supporter I think it's pretty sharp. It has all the elements from the classic Strikers identity, with the sun, "Ft. Lauderdale" script and the "Strikers" and hoops from the jersey, only now in a proper shield. I especially dig the Fort Lauderdale beach wall/columns on the sides. Really nice local touch.The only thing I'm not crazy about is the "Football Club" on there, but I can live with it. Also, they've totally outclassed both of the "Rowdies" NASL reboot attempts by a wide margin, which pleases the Tampa-hater in me: Flight 19 ::: Fort Lauderdale Soccer Supporters ::: DEFEND THE FORT!

Gothamite Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Love the columns, colors, hoops, sun and ball. But what's with that unused scroll along the bottom? The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-O Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Love the columns, colors, hoops, sun and ball. But what's with that unused scroll along the bottom?The "unused scroll along the bottom" is the continuation of the scroll from the words "football club" I believe.

kc51design Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 great logo, can't wait to see the jersey. If is as good as the logo, it's worth buying. lockerroom51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanole Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 The only thing I'm not crazy about is that the beach wall elements (which I think are a great touch) on each side stick out too far. I like that they tucked in the ball and sunburst from the old logo. You know, say what you will about America. Thirteen bucks still gets you a hell of a load of mice.

-kj Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I think it's fantastic, and is easily the class of the NASL. (Carolina's is also nice, but the rest are generally crap.)Also, it appears that the NASL has quietly started using a new logo on its site, unless I just missed the announcement: Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

TFoA Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I came in here expecting the worst. Instead, I was pleasantly surprised. That's a really classy logo that achieves my personal preference of being modern, yet keeping classic ties to the past. Great crest, like Mockba said, this is easily the best looking crest in the NASL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rvrdgsfn Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 According to the Strikers website, they will unveil their kit tomorrow at the hard rock hotel around 7:00 pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishheatcats Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 The new Strikers kits were revealed tonight, I bought mine at the event:Not the same wide hoops as the original Strikers(see below for comparison), but not bad for a Joma template. They were working on a short timeframe to get the shirts done and these will do for year one I think. The road kits are all white with the crest centered and "Strikers" across the front in black, and the keeper shirt is light blue. Flight 19 ::: Fort Lauderdale Soccer Supporters ::: DEFEND THE FORT!

SJAnfield Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I really love this logo. The colors work together perfectly, the crest is aesthetically pleasing and the entire package is modern while incorporating the NASL history. I really hope this team becomes successful so we can see this logo for a long time. Bravo Ft. Lauderdale, you've got a great logo/kit package.

horrorshow Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 The crest looks great. The shirt, not so much. Having a black collar would've helped. It would've complemented the "STRIKERS" word mark and Joma logo to make them seem less pronounced...although if anything, other than the fact that it mimics the original uniform, directing attention to the team's name might've been the point all along. I like to spout nonsense on camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnivore Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I like it. Very well done indeed. That Tampa FC thing is a trainwreck, though. What kind of clip art disaster is that? Nevermind, Strikers crest I enjoy quite a bit.
