Race SportsLogo Design Contest

Hey guys,

Here are a few variations of my initial design idea for your new brand: #23, #24, #25, #26

I wanted it to have a strong, professional sports feel, while also reflecting the core values you have and teach. I look forward to hearing what you think, as I am confident we can nail down a perfect look for you together.

Thanks for looking.

And another idea I refined: #27, including an option with a grunge effect on it: #28. That one would give t-shirts a really cool vintage look.

Hi, our favorites are your entry #30 and #31, can you show us what #30 looks like without the blue background?
Thanks,
Gary

No problem, Gary. I should have that posted within the hour! Talk with you then.

Hi again, It is difficult to correspond with the foriegn designers due to culture etc. One general comment that I have is that many of the designs are too "corporate" in feeling. We are offering a local service, not selling a widget. I did have one idea that has not been explored yet, that has the bottom stroke of the "R" in RACE continuing below the word RACE and becomming the horizontal stroke in "T" of the word "SPORTS". As the bottom stroke of the "R" got closer to the "T" the color would turn to yellow gold. The vertical portion of the letter "T" would also be yellow gold, allowing the "T" to stand out and be visualized as a cross. The rest of the letters would either be royal blue or black.

Hey, great idea. I will see what I can do with this. And yes, one of the main reasons I entered your contest is because everything felt very dry and corporate versus what I envisioned when reading about you guys. Glad we are on the same page! More designs coming soon :)

Here is the initial variations you requested:
#32, #33

I will see what I can do for that other idea next...

Here is the revision that Conrad requested: #34
Let me know if these colors are closer. Thanks!

My first 'new' revision is up! --> #35
Additional new designs are being finalized now as well...

Additional new ones are up!...
#36, #37, #38

Hi, can you give me a variation on #47 by removing the balls, making the sheild a little taller and getting the logo within the boundary of the sheild?
Thanks.

No problem. Here is a revised version for your review: #80
Let me know if you wish to see anything else.

Thanks!

Here is another possible way to use the shield: #82, where the wordmark is on the side of it. This way, you can pull either part of the design out (like #83) and use it on its own as you wish, or you can have them together... Essentially giving you 3 different options for how you wish to use it!

And here it is with "YOUTH ATHLETICS" added to the mix: #84

Let me know if you want to see any revisions to this new idea, as I can still submit new designs during Judging Mode—I just have to be in 1st place to do it.

Thanks again for a fun contest. I hope you get a new brand that you really love!

Also, I am fairly confident you will not always just be on white backgrounds or settings, so I made sure the borders will allow it to look great on blue or gold, or any other color you might run into! (Such as #85)

Depending on where you guys live, you might be at church right now. I am heading out soon for mine (11:00am Central), but I will check back this afternoon after lunch to see if you like this new direction and to see if you have any additional requests for changes. Talk with you then!
