Crusaders logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG Crusaders Logo PNG The brand identity of the New Zealand rugby football team the Crusaders has been criticized for religious and cultural reasons.
- After the Christchurch mosque shootings, the club promised to modify the Crusaders logo.
- 1996 — 1999 The initial emblem for Crusaders was created in 1996 and boasted a horizontally oriented banner with an image of a knight on the left and a bold italicized wordmark in two levels, placed on the right from the knight.
- The image was executed in a pale-yellow and brown color palette, while the text-part of the logo featured slightly different shades of the same colors.
- 1999 — 2019 The redesign of 1999 switched the color palette of the logo to red, black, and white, barely touching the composition itself.
- The main change of these years was in the removal of the upper part of the inscription, and on the addition of a red horizontal banner, where the refined wordmark was now set.
- 2019 The first logo Crusaders introduced in 2019 featured a minimalist yet bold and bright wordmark executed in red with a black outline.
- The letters were capitalized and whiten in a slightly italicized sans-serif typeface with the lines of both “R” elongated and a bit curved.
- 2019 — Today The previous badge only stayed with the club for a few months, and a new emblem was designed later in 2019.
- The badge we all can see today is composed of a stylized emblem and a wordmark with a tagline.
- The emblem features an elegant letter “C”, composed of two parts in black and burgundy, with their ends softened and curved.
- Original symbol The knight and the sword were given in black and white.
- To the right, there was the name of the team in white letters with the black outline.
- Due to the black shades, the letters had a slightly noticeable 3D effect to them.
