Island_Style Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Not the official logo but they hinted that the final logo and colors might not be too far off from this. I like the color combo a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suns1977 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 That's so weird.I never realized the color combination of orange, yellow, & grey actually go together.And quite nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 It's a good scheme and might be a reference to the Tea Men. The only thing I don't really like is that the Strikers and Rowdies also use yellow. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I don't really like is that the Strikers and Rowdies also use yellow.My first thought too. I like the colors but wouldn't mind if it ended up something different for that reason.EDIT: I guess you could argue it is orange more than yellow.

Island_Style Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Never cared much for Jacksonville's flag. Very fitting that the borders of Jax looks like a head with a mullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 That maroony-brown color from the flag would make a nice kit color, though. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

theSLVRBCK Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Meh, I've never cared for our city flag. And that dislike carries over quite a bit to this logo. I don't mind the orange but hope they can find a better secondary color than that yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Island_Style Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 That maroony-brown color from the flag would make a nice kit color, though.I really agree with this. I took the time to let everyone involved know about this opinion. Yay social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Meh, I've never cared for our city flag. And that dislike carries over quite a bit to this logo.Even by "city flag" standards, which are quite low, that's a silly one. The bronco figure is worth carrying over to the crest, though, and I like the colors. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

tBBP Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 The flag makes sense once one understands that the silhouette is that of Andrew Jackson, for whom Jacksonville is named...there's also a bronze statue of him somewhere in downtown, I believe (I think it's still there anyway, but I ain't been through there in years). The orange and yellow? Well, orange is Florida's state color, and I'd presume the yellow is indicative of sunrays...something about about a bright future if I remember right.(Not that this matters at all, but I always found it funny how there were two parts of the city named Orange Park and Mandarin. Also, again, not that this has anything at all to do with the point of this thread, but since we're discussing this equestrian-esque thing here, for a little bit of sidebar education I recommend y'all read up on the history of the Florida Crackers [and no, not THAT kind, either]; all I'll say is some folks out in Texas may be a wee bit disappointed to find out one of their state's most well-known icons didn't exactly originate there. ) *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Island_Style Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 They may play there for a year. They are in the process of shopping for land. They want a 6k to 8k stadium that can expand up to 20k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
