The Highlanders logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- 1996 — 2000 The earliest Highlanders logo featured an ancient warrior with his arms spread wide holding a sword and a shield.
- The warrior’s clothes were dark blue with a yellow belt.
- The lettering below read: “The Otago Highlanders,” which was the team’s original name.
- 2000 — Today The current logo looks pretty much like the original one.
- Colors The original palette was comprised of yellow, blue, and maroon.
- They were chosen as a way to emphasize the link with the area the Highlanders represent (yellow, blue, and maroon are the colors of Otago, North Otago, and Southland).
- In 2011, though, the club unveiled a home uniform dominated by lime green.
- As the kit received negative feedback, the Highlanders decided to leave it for away matches during the 2012 Super Rugby season.
