GriffinM6 1,384 Posted December 22, 2013 Wow. Those are some freaking beautiful logos. Great job on this identity to whoever made it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spillpronecanvas 18 Posted December 22, 2013 I would have preferred the below logo, as I don't like logos that can't stand alone from the wordmark...but overall this rebrand could of gone a lot worse based on recent NBA rebrands. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eliasrappaport 33 Posted December 22, 2013 Quote from Buzz City FAQ:The logo was designed in a collaborative effort between Bobcats team executives, the NBA’s Global Merchandising Group and Jordan Brand, a division of Nike. http://backbuzzcity.com/hornets-logo-faq.htmlSo no Adidas? No surprise. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaytonBlue 42 Posted December 22, 2013 I don't like the forced basketball in the profile logo. Hugo's basketball nut sack is bad tooI thought that logo looked a bit off...I think your description fits. I can't unsee it now! Still glad they're making the name change and overall the logos are solid. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wonderbread 382 Posted December 22, 2013 so now any idea on when uniforms will be unveiled, I'm thinking either before the playoffs, or over summer probably right after the finals 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt 3,647 Posted December 22, 2013 The new logo is pretty cool. But new Hugo looks kinda dumb. Like he's about to do a little jig or something. I could do without the side view hornet logo also... The CH logo is pretty awesome.Overall, it's nice to have the Charlotte Hornets in the Association 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the admiral 28,753 Posted December 22, 2013 It looks like all those AAA baseball logos I hate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sportstar1212 447 Posted December 22, 2013 The logo isn't very good but anything beats the Bobcats identity. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CDixonDesign 178 Posted December 22, 2013 It looks like all those AAA baseball logos I hate.Atleast Hugo isn't swinging a baseball bat, that isn't a baseball bat at all.... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xist2inspire 118 Posted December 22, 2013 Those are some pretty good logos. I hope they don't use the revamped Hugo one too much, as it looks like it should be used for kiddie merchandise only. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the admiral 28,753 Posted December 22, 2013 I really like the Hugo logo. That should be the primary/partial/secondary/everything. It's closer in spirit to the Hornets franchise than an aggressive, asexual insect robot. The CH tertiary is clever. The Buzz City logo is rather bad. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CS85 10,596 Posted December 22, 2013 The Happy Hugo logo is exclusive to the mascot. They wanted to give Hugo his own brand. I don't believe it will be a part of the uniforms. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
