New Season, New Logos

 From the Hornets' official website. I love the new shade of colors, though the new grin on the Hornet will take some getting used to. Nice to see they didn't change the old one too much though. The Fleur de Bee was awesome when they released it and still is awesome, and I'm loving the NOLA alternate logo as well.

The Hornets primary logo has been enhanced with the team’s new colors: a vibrant blue, a deeper, more passionate purple and Mardi Gras gold. In addition, the arms on the primary logo have been better proportioned, the ball channels have been made more accurate and "NOLA" now appears across the chest. The wordmark "New Orleans Hornets" includes more stylization linked to the wrought iron of New Orleans architecture.

The team jersey will still say New Orleans across the chest, not NOLA.

The two alternate logos trump the primary logo, although they did improve it somewhat.

I love that the logos connect with the city. You can tell Shinn cares about New Orleans.

Agree

I think it could’ve been more teal also. But I really like the white sleeve borders on the away jersey, that looks awesome!

Complaints I've read elsewhere

The road uniform looks too much like the Nuggets’. It’s a valid complaint.

Agreed

A bit too powder blue and not enough teal

We are gonna sue!

Just to save time go ahead and send a $250,000.00 check payable to Pickaxe and Roll.
