mcrosby Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 The Lakers once used a fun little giraffe as their logo: I felt like they could bring it back, with a slight update, and into the colors we know and love. I also did a version in the old colors: Oh yeah, C&C pretty please. https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generic Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Great illustration! I mean I think that'd be sweet for the Lakers to use, not like their name means anything since being in Los Angeles. I also had no clue about the Giraffe logo. Once again though, great work!

eliasrappaport Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 There is a SUPER similar concept from like 3-4 years ago. I'll post a picture if I find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Anyone know why they used a giraffe?Because why the hell not? The 60s were awesome.The giraffe logo came up a couple years ago - thread here. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

NoleYourRole Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 WAY better than what they have now. Only thing- the horn/knob whatever the hell it's called, looks like it's coming out of the giraffes eyebrow instead of on the top of the head. Looks a little alien like. Otherwise it looks great.

Whittier S Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 My hunch is that there was a popular giraffe at the zoo there at the time--just like how the Atlanta Silverbacks go their name and branding. But I'm only guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMS1122 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Tremendous work, as usual.I'll echo the horn/eye comment though. Just seems a tad awkward. Everything else is spot on. GMS on dribbbleErie Apparel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHcreative Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 FANTASTIC work. While I like the current color scheme better (I'm a sucker for anything purple) I feel as though the pink/gold/black logo really makes the giraffe pop. Easily one of the best Lakers or NBA logo concept I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbannon92 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Another stellar concept, mcrosby. While the giraffe doesn't make sense, neither does Lakers for a team in LA, so why the hell not! Also I agree with the others on the eyebrow, but that's my only complaint.

Generic Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 That's what I'm saying... what? I'd like to know how as well. Also I must add, good updates and solid logo overall. Uniforms or other logos to match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
