Possible Crests, Logos, Colors and Kits of Miami MLS expansion team

Orlando's new design looks better than before and I agree the colors are unique to MLS.

Teal/Aqua would be unique for MLS.

 

Two more Crest/Shield Ideas.
Its simple I know.

 

Nice. I think that a badge with couple of palm trees with a crescent or full sun in the background would be nice, as would a badge with a flamingo on it. If I were you guys, I wouldn't think on it much harder than that.

 

Something emblematic like that would be total Miami.

 

Flamingo added and different font... A.C. is for aesthetic purposes only on the 2nd one. It could be S.C., F.C. etc.

 

Just for ideas here are some color patches for consideration.

 

Flamingo Orange-Red could replace the orange I used.

No blues that look to much like sky blue or columbia blue, a Teal or Aqua color yeah.

 

a few more patches:

 

Another mockup.

 

Turkey looked great in turquoise and white at the Euros 2008!

 

This is a nice turquoise colour.

I've tried to match it but it's not an exact science when working from a photo. See the patches below. The names I've chosen for the shades are for reference only- the team would probably use a name more relevant to Miami.

This shade that Turkey used is only slightly more blue and a touch lighter than what the Dolphins use.

I've attached three patches that are for the Miami Dolphins. The "official" shade seems much darker than what they look like when you see them live or on TV. It is a little more towards the blue side than the green side.

 

For those who prefer Pink.

 

the above turquoise, still looks "blue".

 

On another note, I also liked Barça's salmon kits a few seasons ago.

 

Let's call it "Messi Orange"

 

If you had Messi Orange and the Barca pistachio green together fans would have to wear sunglasses to night games.

 

Ill stick to a teal/aqua(greenish blue tone) & orange-red combo, or variants as my first choice, and Green & Orange as my 2nd choice. Need to keep away from color tones that look to much like other blues that are already in use.

Salmon or pink tones and other florescent tones would be my last choice..

 

I really hope you guys go pink and teal/turquoise. We need more unique combos in this league and the Art Deco color stuff just seems like it is what Miami SHOULD be.

 

I am not feeling the pink/pistachio/teal/turquoise color scheme. But who knows it could grow on me.

 

I think the scheme in krusso's avatar looks great. They would do well to adopt that as their badge and colors imo. I agree it doesn't look as good as others on your design.

 

World Cup Time everyone. Time to root for our favourite countries and players. Just remember NO MATTER WHERE THE STADIUM ENDS UP, MLS IN MIAMI WILL BE A REALITY. A commitment has been made, and David Beckham and company are going to deliver it big time! I'm ready to help however I can, so here's my latest contribution to the passion!

I like that, and also a teal/turquoise paired with a color in between orange and pink, a blend. We could always also do a 3rd kit in green and orange to honour the city. Remember the kits don't always have to match official team colours. A good example is Portland's 3rd kit, which is Rose coloured (even though the team's colours are green and gold) to represent Portland's nickname of the Rose City.

 

Looking back at some of these postings, I would say the color choices are very interesting.

 

I like Strikers and the FTL Strikers colors, but maybe rename them Florida Strikers (if the MLS entity can even buy that name).
