The History Of The New Orleans Saints Logo
The New Orleans Saints logo is instantly recognizable. It’s modest, chic, and unique! The logo is a French symbol that has been around since the early 17th century.
The original badge unveiled in 1967 was black & white and has changed little ever since. The simple yet elegant black and white mark is a reminder of the fan’s loyalty.
The few changes made to the original logo included the addition of the gold mark, which was introduced by the owners 33 years later. The contrast between the white and the gold highlighted everything brilliantly. Also, the gold color enforced a feeling of nobility and royalty.
The modern-day rendition of the logo maintains its original simplicity and still conveys an iconic personality, despite changes through time! The current colors are golden and black, contrasting beautifully against white outlines to show off the club’s personality without being too flashy or busy-looking.
