Love the fact that NYCFC 'unveiled' it. Further proof that this team is serious about it supporters.

As for the logo, it looks like an Art-Deco styled Electricians Plaque. I guess it's cuz I work in the trades and I see it all the time, but I just can't shake the IBEW association (International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers).

Someone could put something inappropriate there instead of electricity

You're talking about a rubber chicken or a pickle right?

Great logo

It was designed by @wolffmatt who also appears to be the graphic designer for NYCFC (though not the official club badge designer)

That really is a cool logo and easily identifiable. I like the symbolic effect as well. Trying to find the right words but it has a "powerful" feel to it.

To put also a soccer ball symbol in the logo, please.

Looks EXTREMELY similar to the logo for this video game...

 

[MyBoyVilla]

Thats pretty much a direct ripoff.

 

[NYCBlue]

Google "lightning fist" or "lightning in fist." Its common symbol.

 

[einwindir]

Google 'Art Deco Fist' one of the first images will look very very familiar.

 

[NYCBlue]

Google 'Art Deco Fist' once of the first images will look very very familiar.

It's a design style, every "art deco" fist would look similar or nearly identical.

Who caressssssssss

 

[einwindir]

Who caressssssssss

Most of us don't but with all the talent we have at our disposable within the TR only to have the branding outsourced and then the product being a copy/paste of a graphic easily found online. I just think we can do better.

The font, spacing and choice of coloring is great. I think that alone should be the logo.

It doesn't look the same. It IS the same.

The "Third Rail" mentioned in the New York Post today albeit it not for NYCFC related reasons...

The similarities to that other logo shouldn't matter at all unless "operation breakout" has some claim over it. Presumably there's no risk of similar situation to that which happened with the "Wall Street hooligans" logo.
