They’re just not sharing it yet.The Earthquakes announced on Thursday that a new logo and uniforms would be revealed on Jan. 30 at the club’s 40th Anniversary Party in downtown San Jose, a year that will be punctuated by the construction of a new soccer-specific stadium for 2015. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashes of Astroworld 422 Posted January 10, 2014 I guess from the looks of things they may be a black, red and blue team. I wonder how the chevrons will be used though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bosrs1 1,290 Posted January 10, 2014 From what I'm hearing it's actually Blue, Red, Black. They're supposedly going to have a blue primary (like they initially had in MLS), red secondary (like the old NASL Quakes) and the third color utilized on both in some way will be black. The chevrons are rumored to be incorporated into both the new logo and the new kits in some way. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-kj 2,444 Posted January 10, 2014 A return to blue shirts and black shorts, please? Could they have finally come to their senses? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawk36 3,354 Posted January 10, 2014 Looking forward to it. SJ has one of my least favorite MLS logos so it will be good to see it go. Now if the MLS could only get a decent logo. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-kj 2,444 Posted January 10, 2014 I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I still say that MLS already has a decent logo. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Golden One 142 Posted January 10, 2014 They went from hinting at red being added....to a little more red....to all red on flyer..... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Berlin Wall 1,257 Posted January 11, 2014 I'm really looking forward to this date. I hope they'll do something wise. I like the colours though.How nice would be blue home shirts combined with black shorts and red socks!? I'd love that! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digby 7,067 Posted January 11, 2014 One of the more scattered identities in American soccer -- red in NASL, blue first time in MLS, black second time in MLS. Going back to blue and relegating black to trim seems like the obvious idea, with maybe a "throwback" red away kit? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IceCap 22,684 Posted January 11, 2014 I'm liking the chevrons and the colour scheme. Red, white, and blue is overused, bur red, black, and blue is very refreshing. I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Est1980 74 Posted January 13, 2014 The chevrons might be some kind of representation of fault lines? Maybe? Would love to know where the chevrons are being incorporated on. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gothamite 24,908 Posted January 13, 2014 Oh, I think *definitely* fault lines. Clever. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawk36 3,354 Posted January 13, 2014 They went from hinting at red being added....I like what I'm seeing so far. Promising. As much as I hated the red for Inter, it wouldn't be bad for SJ. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grubstreet 99 Posted January 13, 2014 The way Glasgow Rangers use Blue, Red, and Black is one of my favorite looks in sports., This could be very, very nice. But its the Quakes. And Adidas. So....http://www4.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Kyle%2BLafferty%2BGlasgow%2BRangers%2Bv%2BKilmarnock%2BDmxPw9OAD-xl.jpg 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FiddySicks 11,423 Posted January 13, 2014 I'm actually quite bummed about this change. I absolutely loved the change from the Clash to the Earthquakes, and their color scheme is one of my favorite in sports. I even love that cheesy soccer ball fault line logo they have. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bartodell 79 Posted January 13, 2014 The chevrons will more than likely be used in the branding for this one. They way they are pushing it in all of the promos and graphics for the website It will be a shame if it is not. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't have a cheesy soccerball faultline logo...Well, I meant this logo (Richter scale, fault lines, whatever)But I see that they took that out in the 2008 rebrand. Oh well, still a cool logo and great color scheme IMO. And I absolutely swear they once used a logo with a cracked soccer ball. Maybe I dreamt that though. EDIT: Ahh yes, here it is. Absurdly awesome.Either way, I'm kinda sad they're phasing out the 90s cheesiness of the MLS. I totally understand why, but it was kinda what made the MLS unique to other soccer leagues. Oh well. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
