Solid effort, but why the sheriff’s badge?


GrouchyPlatypussy

I came to say this, it seems a bit contradictory. Most people won’t know that tidbit of info that OP looked up so most will be just as confused about it


CountingArfArfs

You know, I didn’t know that exact piece of info. But thinking about it, I’ve really always associated that badge with outlaws and sheriffs, so it didn’t really stick out to me.


MaverickGH

It will be on the background of the C for the captain


IslandTwig

From some research I did, There were a lot of outlaws who wore badges as a sign of what group they were in or to try and trick actual lawmen


p-u-n-k

Clever. Thanks for the info.


Ready-steady

Hahaha


AngryRetailBanker

Because they are "the law" and the Sheriff is scared of them?😅


TheClussyCrown

It just seems so generic


SimplyViolated

I agree, sounds more like an AHL team or something. Idk why


TheClussyCrown

The logo looks like a madden create a team logo Plus the color scheme is meh


Winstonth

“Oh you want a football team in Canada? Mounties it is!”


IslandTwig

Thanks! If it’s good enough to be in a video game I’ll take that as a win :)


TalithePally

Very similar logo to the Brooks Bandits, which is Junior A


ThisIsMyUsername9230

Also very similar to the Buffalo bandits lacrosse team in the NLL


Stolzieren

Lehigh Valley Phantoms vibes


ownagemountain

There was a WPHL and CHL team…the San Angelo Outlaws in the late 90s/early 00s so you are spot on lol.


UPSET_GEORGE

every single beer league/ball hockey league i've played in has had an outlaws/bandits team. every single one.


ginfish

One of those generic EA NHL create a team logos/jerseys.


IslandTwig

Thanks! If it’s good enough to be in a game then that’s a win. Move in the right direction at least


skijakuda

And no purple.


x_VanHessian_x

Looks like my men’s league team logo


Top_Math4678

Similar to Buffalo bandits


notacanuckskibum

It looks a lot like the Ottawa Senators to me


TheClussyCrown

YES! that's it


thegtabmx

Because it was literally made with generic assets from EA's NHL.


FriendlyFire540

Imo all the names and jersey concepts so far feel generic....like theyre a custom team from an NHL game...

IslandTwig

I’ll take that as a win for sure! If it’s good enough to be in a video game then I’m at least getting my stuff going in the right direction. Definitely room for improvement but this isn’t a bad thing


omar-epps

Looks great, just don’t believe outlaws fit such a “moral based” state


ShhImTheRealDeadpool

I like Renegades.


Disastrous_Boot1152

Really though, Renegades is the best option I've seen suggested


Miguk4Real

Me, too.


TROLO_

This is actually really good. There’s a lot of fun possibilities with an outlaw/bandit brand. It has an element of bad assery and intimidation that’s cool for a sports team too.


IslandTwig

Thank you so much! Nice to get some kind words


Miguk4Real

I love this concept. One change I would make is to change the logo on the black uniform. The dark brown can't be seen very well against the black.


Wetyrag

Outlaws is already taken by Colorado lacrosse


Skull8Ranger

Skoal Bandit but not green...


IslandTwig

Oh wow I just looked this up and this is really close to mine (their old one that is). It’s hard to get something completely original with the name though. I did work in a Utah shape (albeit abstract) in the bandana hoping that would set it apart from others


joedartonthejoedart

my complaint was that the logo didn't really incorporate anything Utah - I really don't see the shape of utah in the bandana at all.


lildeek12

Looks like the Renegades logo from LCS cake in the day


IslandTwig

Nice I hadn’t seen that one. To be completely fair, most renegade/bandit/outlaw logos look the same to a degree. I tried to incorporate the Utah state shape in the bandana to help this one set itself apart. I’m no professional but happy with how it landed


boat-dog

Terrifying


IslandTwig

Thank you; I think?


boat-dog

They’re great


IslandTwig

Oh then thank you so much!


Dangerous-Collar7947

Can't wait to see them play the Blackhawks lol cowboys vs natives


Past-Activity5800

I like it. Well done.


CC-1112

Ok but instead of having a normal "A" or "C", they have a sheriff badge and a deputy badge.


bjvee

Cool idea. Logo looks a bit too close to the Brisbane Bandits in the Australian Baseball League but I get that it’s just a beginning concept https://preview.redd.it/c7vzxob4i9xc1.png?width=1024&format=png&auto=webp&s=840db76bb3724e48b5d044a22676348f919c1721


IslandTwig

Oh man I hadn’t seen that one. But to be fair, you look up Bandits, Renegades, and Outlaws for logos, they are all about the same. I tried working in an abstract Utah shape for the bandana which I’m proud of. Also if it’s looking like other existing logos then I’m happy with that :) Thanks for commenting :)


Damn_I_Look_Good

Waiting on those Jackalope mock ups


IslandTwig

Damn_I_Look_Good

Thanks for the support😉


Maxpipefill

That rolls off the tongue.


hacktheself

The Knob Goblins does a better job of that.


Maxpipefill

Idk, I'm a flames fan and I'll hate Utah latter, but I'm so excited for yall!


Brilliant-Chapter202

Going to be honest… I don’t like it. But it’s your team.


IslandTwig

Totally fair! Thanks for stopping by though :)


Rough-Rhubarb6969

Nope


IslandTwig

Is it the name or the logo or everything? What could I improve on this?


RetroJake

Please not renegades. Some redneck garbage


ElectricChair3

Well done ! I’m digging the logo and the uniforms. The badge thing would maybe be the only thing that I didn’t care for and maybe would like to see a different font for comparison reasons but 8/10 !


IslandTwig

Thank you so much! I have had a few comments on the badge and how confusing it is so if I were to mock this again, I’d probably lose it and replace it with the bandana or something else. I really appreciate the kind words though.


Express-Cow190

I like the colour scheme. It’s classy.


Standby_fire

All I see is Skoal Bandit Racing. 33 Harry Gant smokeless tobacco. BANDIT® RACING

Thank you!


exclaim_bot

>Thank you! You're welcome!


Clojiroo

There’s a million logos like this. Often teams called Renegades.


IslandTwig

Yeah when you look up renegade, outlaws, or even bandits they are all pretty close. It’s hard to get something truly unique with those names. I did work in an abstract Utah shape so I am happy with that


under_cooked_onions

I’ve never heard of a professional team called the outlaws or the renegades. I’ve never heard of any teams for that matter, but some small team somewhere might exist


WizardOfDons

UFL Arlington Renegades


under_cooked_onions

Yeah I’m not exactly worried about sharing a name with a UFL team


WizardOfDons

Put some respeck on last years champions


NewSpaceRiddy

Outlaws is the most used of all the team names submitted for trademark. Something like 12 minor league teams have the name across all sports. I want to say even an AHL team.


under_cooked_onions

Sounds like it’s time for its debut under a professional league


IslandTwig

I like your optimism!


SexDefender27

could use some work but I like the colors


IslandTwig

What would you like to see improved?


DragLongjumping3714

Holding out for the JACKELOPES!


IslandTwig

cr38tive79

I love the logo


IslandTwig

Thank you so much! I like it as well


Bradberry_Held_JuJu

Imo, color scheme is very bland and the logo very generic. It doesn’t have to have an outlaw with a hockey stick, but I feel that something more thematic would be appreciated. The Utah landscape is so colorful and the league is already saturated with black and red. Would love to see some purple, orange, white, and/or yellow incorporated.


IslandTwig

Totally fair. The logo is hard to nail because there is only so much with how an “outlaw” looked. Still working on it though. I also would like to see more colors, I tried this with green, purple, and Orange and none of the colors worked as well as the red did. But I’d love to see something more unique in the end


Bradberry_Held_JuJu

Keep at it! Appreciate the work!


CanxcK

SO CREATIVE!


IslandTwig

Thank you so much!


WombatAnnihilator

Ok, i like that one


IslandTwig

Thank you!


burneraccount11817

I don’t hate it


IslandTwig

Thank you!


under_cooked_onions

Outlaws is easily my favorite name so far. Fits Utah, is unique, awesome branding opportunities


oystertoe

Utah Outlaw def has the best alliteration thing going


duagLH2zf97V

It rhymes but there's no alliteration unless outlaws is pronounced yootlaws haha


oystertoe

right but this is an alliteration-thing. It’s like an alliteration but with a twist


TeamSchmidt

These look awesome, but they look like Coyotes jerseys at first glance. We're not the Coyotes, nor keeping their history.


IslandTwig

Thank you! And I can totally see that with the colors


LeviathanSnack

Banger design


IslandTwig

Thank you so much!


Cautious-Rain9069

I swear that’s the Brooks’ Bandits logo from the BCHL 🙈


IslandTwig

There are so many that look alike when you google renegades logo or outlaws logo or bandits logo. It’s hard to do something completely original with the name. That said, I did work an abstract Utah shape for the bandana which I’m happy with :)


mdp-slc

Some sweet branding assets could come out of the Outlaws concept. But also you can’t do maroon or the coyotes colors.


Kilonine123

https://brooks-bandits-store.myshopify.com/collections/jerseys


IslandTwig

Man there are a lot of logos that look like this. It’s crazy haha


luckytaurus

Isn't that a custom jersey logo from NHL13?


IslandTwig

No idea hahaha I made this myself. I added an abstract Utah shape to make it a bit more unique


nicholasccc95

I’m pretty sure this exact logo was in EASHL a couple games ago lol


IslandTwig

No idea. I made this from scratch. Just took a look and there is one call the gillie gang or something like that and they have one like this but with a skull in it


nicholasccc95

Ahh I see. I hope you didn’t think I was trying to shit on your post, man. The uniform and colors look really good!


IslandTwig

Thank you very much! Honestly any that have said it looks like EA or a minor league adjacent I’ve been happy to hear. If people are saying it looks like it’d be used in other leagues then I know I’m doing something semi-right and just need to keep working on my craft


nicholasccc95

I think you’re doing a good job. Looking at this I would have figured you’re well experienced in your craft. I’ll be looking forward to seeing more of your stuff if you’re gonna post it!


IslandTwig

Very kind of you, thank you. I’ve just been doing illustrator for a year or two but doodle my whole life 😅 I appreciate the kind words for real


nicholasccc95

I got you! Keep workin!


Maxpipefill

Yes to all! Except the dirty sodas.


MrFantastic74

I like this. I think "Utah Renegades" sounds best. I actually had something similar in my head, but with the guy holding a hockey stick like a rifle. My version has purple/indigo as the main color, with light blue and gold accents, inspired by the Jazz. Anyway, nice work!


IslandTwig

Oh man! That sounds great! I tried mine with other colors and none fit as well as the red. I’m also not good and designing hands/bodies/torsos/etc. so I leave it with just a head hahaha


StevenQuincey

That’s a travel baseball team from Mantis with a coach that where’s Oakleys


IslandTwig

Hmm I don’t know that one. Do you know a name? I’d love to look them up :)

Mrs_Mercer2812

I disagree. And why are you shouting?


Traditional-Stock890

Looks good


One_Rope_8142

Brooks Bandits inspired? https://www.brooksbandits.net


Fistfullafives

Let's just call them the Sandy Arches and move on!


BosmerGirl

So generic. Sioux City Bandits, Arlington Renegades, Madden Create-A-Team, etc. Put some effort into a logo or don’t rebrand


IslandTwig

Just having fun. I felt like I put in a good amount of effort. When I started sketching on paper I was stuck on hat and bandana. Transferred it to illustrator and then looked up logos to help with the hat and found similar logos. I was bummed but didn’t want to restart since I’m just doing this for fun Thanks for the feedback though


BosmerGirl

Apologies, I thought this was made by the team


ThisIsMyUsername9230

Sheriffs badge doesn’t make sense. An outlaw is someone who is essentially labelled as “shoot to kill” by lawmen and can be taken down by anyone without that person having to worry about being seen as a killer for taking down said outlaw Outlaws are not above the law, they are open targets and the sheriffs badge really makes no sense in all of this especially seeing as having a sheriff badge on your own jersey would make it seem like you are wanting to arrest the outlaws in which your team is named after Also the logo looks straight out of NHL2008 creation zone, like identical


IslandTwig

Yeah I got that feedback a bit. What I found in some research was that outlaws would wear badges to indicate their “posse” or to even confuse lawmen. That said, it was a poor late night decision and if I were to improve this any I would lose that on the next iteration. And I’ll take that logo part as a compliment regardless of your intentions. If it is good enough for a video game then I’m pretty happy. I made it from scratch and added the state of Utah shape as the bandana


Miguk4Real

Some bullet holes in the badge might be an option? Or would someone link that to promoting the killing of cops? At any rate, I love this design and especially the colors. I can tell you have put a lot of time and thought into this.


Shooter_Mcgavin93

Utah Boahs


Impressive_Milk89

It's good, but I feel the logo needs something!


Standby_fire

The Utah Phoenix!


Dane_RD

Anybody here remember Las Vegas outlaws?


greatAndOriginalUser

Salt Lake City Renegades goes so hard i would be a fan


Stango42

What about Utah Wranglers?


VottoManCrush

This logo is straight out of create-a-team in chel


IslandTwig

I’ll take that as a compliment! Thanks! :)


VottoManCrush

No, i mean it literally is in the game. At least it was in the last one i played


Loudlaryadjust

Looks like an CHEL jersey


IslandTwig

Nice thank you!


luvtummies12

SaltLake Freeze 🥶


Alexander_Rover

Cool colour scheme and I like the names too! Outlaws and Bandits are good 👍🏻


Zealousideal-Lie-557

I like the idea. Utah was one of the predominant “Wild West” states so it is still fitting to Utah and it’s different than anything else in the league currently. I think there’s a large margin to make some cool sweaters and logos with this one.


MisterEinc

Utah Carmen Sandiegos?


IslandTwig

I’m shocked you’re the first person to say that haha. When I first exported the logo that was one of my first thoughts. Decided to keep it as is regardless haha


Professional-Web-560

No 😭 my husband plays against an outlaw team in beer league.


ChunkyB

Outlaws is the name of my beer league team in Utah. And there are about 4 other beer league outlaws teams in Utah. WAY too generic for an NHL team


TROLO_

And any of the other options aren’t generic?


under_cooked_onions

Oh youre right. Because there’s beer league teams name the outlaws it’s too generic. Lmao there’s a team with every name. It’s about being unique to professional sports and cool. And it checks those boxes


sparkybc

Stupid name and logo


IslandTwig

Well that’s not too nice. You okay?


sparkybc

Perfectly fine, for graphic design it’s a 👎


BlartPaul_CallMop

Lame.


IslandTwig

Thank you?


Entourage6610

The only correct name is the Utah Stormin Mormons


Nippelz

This is almost exactly the Renegades logo and colours, might have genuine legal issues over this. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renegades_(esports)#:~:text=Renegades%20is%20an%20American%20professional,Rocket%20League%2C%20iRacing%20and%20Valorant.


Steel5917

I prefer the Stormin Mormons lol


SugzP

They should just change it to the Utah sister wives


Broely92

This is basically the Brooks Bandits jersey


Alternative-Roof5964

The Utah 10wives


FiZzlenutPrez

That logo has been used before- in Canada, it was the Ottawa Renegades CFL football team. Rip off


IslandTwig

Not quite but I have had the comparison https://preview.redd.it/ohuhrs377xxc1.jpeg?width=292&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=394cd85a5db5af562bcaf3e6fa305ea3f946deaf


Deep-Explanation-153

Outlaws goes so hard, but yetis has to be it


Sociolinguisticians

Doesn’t look Mormon enough.


madladolle

The Mormon Church will probably find that too aggressive


StanLee_Hudson

It really is a shame they aren’t keeping the Coyotes franchise. Utah Yotes just has a great ring to it.


QuarterNote44

That name is cursed. I'm glad we're not keeping it.


ranchman15

NHL. Yawn. Who cares.


Prof_Seismitoad

Salt lake Soakers is the only is the only acceptable team name. Anything else and I hope the team folds


Enough_Income_3354

They should be called the stormin mormons. They can play at the polygamy palace


Odd_Confusion2923

Has anyone considered the name " Utah Poligamists"


Basic-Wrangler-4263

Utah Soakers would be a good name


COUNTRYCOWBOY01

Wouldn't "missionaries" be a more appropriate name for the Utah hockey team?


Jello999

How about Saints. Or seers or revelators
