barcenal Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Official Red and Black Bloc Logo This logo best represents the raw passion and devotion a member of the RBB has for his/her club. The logo touches upon anonymity i.e. the hood leaves this person open to anyone and everyone in the RBB. The passionate expression of being in full voice connects to what the RBB will do best in the stands. "We sing for the Wanderers!". The wreath brings a more traditional element to the logo. The 'W' both stands for the 'Wanderers' as well as the 'West'. Logo design by barcenal. After weeks of back and forth suggestions by members of westsydneyfootball.com and many drafts by the Photoshop savvy among us the selection process for the logo that would represent the RBB and all that it stood for came down to a top 6 poll that spanned over a few days. The above logo was the winner by a large majority. Thank you to all that contributed with their ideas and votes. The RBB now has a logo it can chant behind and identify with. That we can wear proudly on our scarves and shirts. That we will fly high on banners and flags on the terraces in our stadium and all over the country and hopefully the world.

Kraken Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I originally voted for the Gas mask, but changed my vote to this. I think its great. All the designs were classy. And whoever desinged it, Congratulations.
robinho Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Wow. That's awesome. Conveys everything we would want! Strong image, can't be sure if he/she's angry or just pumped. Love it!
DiscoD Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 So, now we have a logo, what about having the first hooded jumper/jacket (or even playing shirt) with this logo on it be presented to the club (WSW team captain & CEO) before their first A-L match to hang in their change room as a sign that the RBB is with/behind them? Would love to see this take place just before the first A-L game at Parra.... Wld be a good touch that it be presented by Mack (WSF.com), Skin/Noise (RBB), & logo designer (?).... thoughts??
Llama Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 We don't really need hoodies as Merch considering the season is in summer....
Neverbloom Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 its something people could wear in winter though, keeps the wanderers in people's minds all year round perhaps
DiscoD Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 We don't really need hoodies as Merch considering the season is in summer.... Well that's not really seeing the bigger picture.... 100 % what GOD said above, plus, it wld look awesome on a hoodie! & u wldn't think a scarf is clothing for summer?? I'd definitely get 1!!
wilsonpastore Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 RBB striped black and red scarves should be next
Sub Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 All of that is on the way, and getting sorted out as we speak.

I would get one too. But we first need things that are practical and of use. A tshirt first before hoodies for eg. Scarves can't be compared because we use those to incorporate into our choreos and tifos while a hoodie is strictly to be worn in the offseason, unless a few fruit loops want to wear it in 30 degree weather, lol. Tshirts, scarves and stickers are of higher priority then hoodies....
JuveLeo Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 great logo. No-one seems to not like it which is good.

Erebus Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Hoodies will be good...as I'll be in Europe over xmas/NYE. Represent RBB worldwide!!! (*****!)

Taurus Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Llama, is 100% correct. Scarfs, T-shirts, Polo's etc initially. Once they have been sold reinvest the profits and buy some Hoodies in late summer / early autumn 2013 just in time for next winter.

Once they have been sold reinvest the profits and buy some Hoodies in late summer / early autumn 2013 just in time for next winter. Lol. So, we roll out merch like t-shirts & polos in the middle of winter & spring when they'll be covered up by jumpers, jackets, and... hoodies. We'll have to disagree on the percantage of correctness.... [let alone the fact our logo is actually wearing a hoodie... ] GOD is actually mre correct
DiscoD Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I guess what I'm trying to say is... what are you wearing right now? What will you be wearing outside, in public, at night, over the next two months? That's what the logo shld be on for effective free promotion. revenue will increase more effectively by volume of ppl seeing the logo & wanting to wear same.... So, a little bit of column A, a little bit of column B...
FairPlay Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Tuff logo. The gas mask logo was a little over the top. This is much more appropriate. GOOD WORK!!! FP
Kizza Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I've worn hoodies to many an a-league game. I wasn't jumping around like a lunatic at the time though...
Benched Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I wear hoodies for most the year, especially down here. Outer parts of Western Sydney get just as cold at night. Mountain folk would be the same. Suspect Campbelltown gets pretty chilly in the evening except for the height of summer.
