A guy on Reddit is re-branding NBA teams, and he dug up some of the fan made ideas that he could find. Here are the mock-ups for jerseys and logos for the Raptors.

I do kind of like it.

I'm liking the simple White & Black jerseys

Those white jerseys are really nice. Not feeling the other gear

No more red and white! Enough of this Canada's Franchise garbage - 82.4% of Canadians wouldn't know what a basketball was if it hit them in the face.

Swap the red for blue imo like the Leafs and these would be heavenly. Really like the design.

Addendum

I don't mind the jerseys, but that Raptor head in the first logo looks like a snake's head.

Am I the only one who actually likes the claw?

I can't stand the *&^% purple dino that looks like the bastard child of Barney living on Sesame Street.

Wow. I love the back and white ones!

Bring this back

Lolol true enough. Idk why the Raptors wear Canadian colors. Most people living outside Ontario are Lakers/Heat bandwagoners anyway (I would know since I live out west).

I like that court

This is probably the best Raptors logo I've ever seen somebody attempt. The only thing I don't like is the tongue. I also think the shading is a little overdone but I love the concept and think that something aggressive with clean lines like this would look absolutely sick on a black hat with just the logo and nothing else on it.



I hope others are inspired by this, especially anybody with ties to the front office. I don't think it's "the one" but if they laid off the shadowing a little more and maybe they just removed the tongue entirely, and brought in the white outline a little more after removing that it would be pretty cool.

i love the claw logo tbh... but these jerseys are clean. i really like them.

Really like the bird's eye view of the net concept



Only b/c Ricky is in our uniform

I wouldn't mind re-branding back to the Huskies either

I'm bored with the claw. Normally simpler is better but the faux cave-drawing style of a Raptors footprint just looks shoddy to me and I can't really associate to it or be excited by it. I'm one of the biggest Raptors fans going but I look at those hats with the foot prints and I'm like, "Meh, looks like something they'd hand out at the American Museum of Natural History at a side stand along with fossil T-shirts.

The only reason I think it was so widely accepted was because the big cartoony dinsosaur logo was experiencing a backlash at the time, and simplicity was king. Raptors fans wanted something simple and pushed for the simplest logo that was associated with the team going. I think we can do better. The irony is that the original cartoony logo has been embraced through hipster/streetwear junkies obsessed with the 1990s.

I agree and totally love them too. What are the chances the raps make a big change like this anyways? Any statement or comment from management to suggest a rebranding?

If the raptors are rebranded this ofseason, lets hope we make some flashy changes to the lineup too. A signing like Milisap would be a good start....

Hate Rubio's Huskies logo! Looks like a high school jersey.
