Galaxy Wordmark Logo

The LA Galaxy wordmark logo has become an iconic symbol of the Los Angeles-based soccer team. The club was founded in 1995, and its original logo featured a shield with stars representing the five founding teams: LA Heat, San Jose Clash, New England Revolution, Washington DC United, and Tampa Bay Mutiny. This design was used until 2007 when they decided to update their look with a more modernized version of their classic shield logo.

The current LA Galaxy wordmark is composed of two elements – “LA” in white lettering on top of a navy blue background and “Galaxy” written below it in gold font against a black background – creating an eye-catching contrast that stands out from other logos used by other MLS teams. The use of these colors also serves as an homage to the city's flag which features red (for bravery), white (for purity), and blue (for justice). Additionally, this design is meant to represent both strength & power while also maintaining its sense of sophistication & elegance associated with professional sports branding designs today.

Since debuting its new look over 10 years ago now; this simple yet unique mark has become one most recognizable symbols within Major League Soccer circles worldwide! It continues to be prominently displayed across all official merchandise for both players & fans alike; making it clear why many consider it one best examples of effective visual identity designs within American professional sports history!
