Eskimos Wordmark Logo

The Edmonton Eskimos have a long and storied history. From their inaugural season in 1949 to the present day, they’ve been one of the most successful franchises in Canadian Football League (CFL) history. Along with that success have come several iconic logos, but none more recognizable than their current wordmark logo.

The first iteration of what would become known as the “Edmonton Eskimos Wordmark Logo” was introduced during the team's 50th anniversary season back in 1999. The original design featured a bold blue font on an orange background with a white outline around it - all elements which remain part of today's version as well! It also included two capital "E"s intertwined at either side - symbolizing unity and strength among fans, players, coaches, and staff alike!

In 2014 however; after much fan feedback from surveys conducted by both local media outlets & social media channels – The Edmonton Eskimos unveiled an updated look for their primary mark: A cleaner font style featuring thicker lines & sharper edges along with subtle shading effects to give it more depth & texture overall while maintaining its classic appeal! This new design also removed any reference to traditional Inuit culture or imagery which had previously been associated with previous versions due to its controversial nature amongst some groups within Canada’s Indigenous community at large; thus making sure everyone felt welcome when wearing/supporting this beloved team no matter who they were or where they came from!

Fast forward six years later: 2020 marks yet another significant milestone for not only The Edmonton Eskimos but also CFL football itself – As we celebrate 100 years since its inception back in the 1920-21 season!! To commemorate such an important event; once again changes have been made to this timeless logo…this time focusing on modernizing certain aspects while still preserving traditional features like those aforementioned E symbols found within it so many decades ago now!!

Overall these modifications help keep things fresh looking without losing sight of what makes them special so whether you're just getting into CFL fandom or are simply looking for something familiar yet different enough that'll make your friends jealous when showing off your latest piece(s)of gear sporting these colors...the choice is yours because there really isn't any wrong way here!!!
