Oklahoma City Redhawks unveil new logos/uniforms

Flash video here.

I'm not in love with the set, I mean, obviously, I think it's an upgrade to what they had, but while before, it felt rather dated and just.. unattractive, with the new set, it seems like they are trying too hard to create a retro look.

In addition, I don't like the way there isn't a primary color between the red and the blue... it feels very mix-and-match, and not in a good way.  I'm also not sold on the primary, with the C being twice the size as everything else in the package.. if you were going to go faux old-school, why not go with the collegiate style or, the style of the White Sox, with OKC cascading down.

As I've said, it's basically an underwhelming upgrade.  I do like the underused hawk head logo, though.

I actually kinda like it...

I think both the Redhawk and OKC logos look pretty good.

I don’t have a problem with it. I like that they kept the red and went back to using some blue retro the OKC 89’ers look.

I really like the new color. And to emphasize that its OKC team and not just the redhawks is awesome IMO.

Um yeah....

If you see the C as being first, the letters spell C-O-K.

Me gusta!

I like it! Big improvement over the old logo. I think the color scheme is great.

LOL

Grown damn men dicussing the dandy little niceties of uniform aesthetics:

You are killing me man. Killing me…

Lots going on

…in the first logo. Reminds me of the old Rangers logo (red days). I like simpler logos; I don’t need OKC and Redhawks and Oklahoma City and crossed bats AND a baseball. It’s too much!
