Well we continue the addition of yet a few more 'blues' to BofA Stadium. End of last season there were 9 different shades of 'panther' blue visible in the seating bowl. 

This is the best part of the launch:

Charlotte Very Much in Play as MLS Mulls Expansion Growth to 30 https://www.si.com/soccer/2019/06/26/mls-expansion-charlotte-panthers-david-tepper-st-louis-sacramento

Raleigh is not getting an MLS expansion club.  The current proposal is just OK. The city and market is just OK. The ownership group headed up by Steve Malik would be among the “poorest” of the en

It is better that they stick with similar to panther colors since they are sharing a stadium.  If they didn't it would be so hard to do it right on game days to make it feel like CLTFC's stadium and not just a stadium that the Panthers let them play in.

Definitely like this the most.  The crest is what it is, clean, non offensive that can appeal to the mass.  Went the Atlanta route..  But colors and font all are very Chelsea FC like across the board.

But I'll be holding out for merch until something with this logo :tw_grin:

Oh I'm a fan of the blue, I just wish the Panthers would follow their own brand guidelines sometimes...

I want to like it.  I really do.  But man this just feels very . . . MS Paint-y?  Did they turn down any concepts, or just go with the first draft?  

Guess I got my hopes up for something more exciting.

There is a white version of their logo.

We can start speculation on the kits based on what MLS currently has. The basic rule is that the primary kit is always worn unless it clashes with the opponent's.

Primary Shirt: Probably a safe bet on a blue shirt with black trim and a white Ally logo, since home shirts are the colored ones.

Primary Shorts: Probably blue shorts too but they could go with black. Lots of teams have coordinating shirts and shorts but there are others, like Seattle, that use their secondary color for the shorts.

Second Shirt: The new 2020 MLS away shirts are white for every team, but since kits are released every two years you'll see some non-white shirts that came out in 2019. Who knows what MLS and Adidas will use for their 2022 template, so it's hard to speculate. Could be white, could be black. Probably one of those. If it's white, expect a purple Ally logo.

Second Shorts: Usually the away shorts match the shirts, so either white or black.

Third Kit: MLS has gotten rid of third kits but there's been talk of bringing them back for some teams. Usually the third kit is the one with a left-field color or design, so who knows what Charlotte's would look like if they had one. I'd love to see gold, but it's impossible to predict this.

I don't know why but I like it out in the wild more then I did in the videos during the release.  Maybe seeing how it  seems to fit with the exterior of BoA and the rest it does look like the crest has been here forever.  And given Glick's comments of "timeless design" I see it, it looks like a crest of a team that has been around for decades and not one that just got released yesterday.  Still like the secondary way more, but I went from "meh" to "ah ok, I see what you were trying to do" on the primary

I found this concept and I must say that I very much prefer it. It could even have 'CHARLOTTE' written where the 'C' is.

The “C” is supposed to represent the C that was on coins minted in Charlotte in the 1800s.

Here’s the Agenda write up. wonder where the MLS HQ will end up.  Maybe integrate it into the entertainment district uptown somehow?  Hope it stays in CLT though.
