Floridians Logo History

The Miami Floridians logo is an iconic symbol of the city and its history. It has been around for over 50 years, first appearing in 1967 when the team was founded as a member of the American Basketball Association (ABA). The original design featured a basketball player with his arms outstretched and legs crossed, wearing a white jersey with red stripes on either side. This simple yet powerful image quickly became synonymous with not only Miami but also professional basketball in general.

Over time, there have been several variations on this classic logo that reflect different eras of Miami’s sporting culture. For example, during their brief stint in Major League Soccer (MLS), they changed their colors to black and orange while keeping the same basic silhouette intact—a testament to how beloved this design had become by then-current fans. During their transition from ABA to NBA status in 1988, they updated it again by adding more detail including stars above each arm as well as two hands clasped together at chest level; these elements were meant to represent unity among players and fans alike during what was an exciting moment for both sides involved!

Today’s version still retains many elements from past iterations such as those mentioned earlier but also incorporates modern touches like bolder lines around certain parts or sharper angles throughout—allowing it to stay relevant even after all these years! The result is something timeless yet unmistakably “Miami” which makes perfect sense given how closely linked our city's identity has become intertwined with its sports teams over time; no matter where you are or who you root for there will always be one thing we can all agree upon: That classic Floridians logo looks great no matter what context it appears within!
