Needs more dinosaur. I like the Chevron only because we won championship with them but really badly I want the dinosaur in the tweaked logo.

Raptors picked as the best name.1. Raptors
Finding inspiration in Jurassic Park is a product of being founded in the ’90s, but the Raptor is—in this instance and this instance only—timeless. Nothing looks better on a vintage jersey than a creature so vintage it can no longer be found on this earth. The Raptors cartoon is the difference between thousands of Vince Carter jerseys at a music festival and none;
im shocked.. just goes to show how winning affects a brand
for 20 + yrs we had the worst name in basketball according to everyone
I bet the people loving on the Raptors hype these days were the same people calling them Craptors the past few decades, especially through the losing years.

Yeah, bring back the Dino fever!
Hopefully we get more purple & black in our designs too.
I said this many times here, but you have name Raptor, raptor is such dynamic cool looking predator animal, I think we could have something much better than this. Old fat barny Raptor was stupid and new watermelon was even stupider idea.
I have logo somewhat imagined in my head, first of all I think the whole body of the raptor must be drawn on primary logo, Raptors just look so fast, aerodynamic creatures, I can picture now its torso and tail being drawn in a way you just get a futuristic feel.
I might try to draw a logo later just to get my idea out of the system, because man, one of the coolest names in the league - so much potential for a good logo.

I don't know how much of you guys would like this but I want them to add feathers to the Raptor. I feel like we can do much more with the appearance of the dino. If it's too big of a change maybe we can have multiple different types of Raptors? Just like how there is the original Raptor then Stripes.

Re: Raps getting new uniforms for the 2021 season
Im glad we getting new Uni's.
Our regular ones were just too plain for me. Our Alternates are always fire. But the regular ones are just meh.
Also, can they please bring back "Toronto" across the chest

Re: Raps getting new uniforms for the 2021 season
We literally JUST changed our logos and jerseys. Why change them again? The jerseys I can sort of see if you wanted to cash in but the logo? Why?

Alright, I'm adding my two cents to all of this.
I call this, a little bit of the old and new.

"Tweaking logo" doesn't sound like a whole new logo. They'll probably just add the chevron to the logo lol

If we must change the dinosaur theme logo, my vote goes for Raptor Jesus or philosophical raptor. Continue to troll the league and general fans.

This body stance is what I picture logo should be, I tried to PS yesterday, but my raptor didnt end up very fierce looking, but if someone who can draw would implement this looking raptor into a logo, I think it could work

Re: Raps getting new uniforms for the 2021 season
When they won the championship and we were all buying championship gear, I knew they would change the uniforms. People bought an unprecedented amount of merchandise during and after the championship run, and probably wouldn't have bought gear for a while. The only way they can keep people buying gear is by changing uniforms in the short run.

For me, just get rid of the red. Oh.. and "no" to all the stupid dinosaur logos. We have our retros for that.

Give me all the stupid dino logos. Better than a cigarette pack design. With North as the replacement for the team name/city.

Much better than the crappy chevron jerseys. I don’t how any random fan can come up with decent jersey designs but the raptors are paying someone big bucks to come with meh jerseys after meh jerseys

For everyone posting images of generic dinosaur graphics and old uniforms just reign it in.
A tweak to the logo will likely only be in colour, possibly removing the silver and going from 3 colour to 2 colour?
The NORTH chevron championship uni's was a good, classic look and I could live with variations on the design for a long time.
