Columbus Crew Primary Logo

The Columbus Crew is a professional soccer team based in Ohio, United States. The logo of this team has gone through several changes over the years since it was first established in 1994.

The original logo for the Columbus Crew featured a black and yellow shield with three stripes across the top and bottom, representing each of their home states: Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia. Inside this shield was an image of Christopher Columbus’s ship Santa Maria sailing on blue waves with two stars above it to represent North America's discovery by Europeans. This design served as their primary logo until 2015 when they decided to update its look slightly while still keeping much of its traditional elements intact.

In 2015, the club unveiled a new version that kept most aspects from before but updated them slightly for modern times; including changing some colors around (the stripes were changed from black & yellow to white & gold) as well as adding more detail within Christopher Columbus' ship which now had four sails instead of one like before making it appear larger than life! Additionally “Columbus” was added underneath along with “Crew Soccer Club” at either side so people would know who exactly owns this symbol without any doubt or confusion about what organization is being represented here! Today fans can be seen proudly wearing merchandise featuring these logos all over town showing off just how proud they are about supporting such an important part of local culture.
