MLS Logo History - Alternate Logo and Branding
The original MLS logo debuted in 1996 with a "boot and ball" design that represented the league's birth. However, as the sport matured, the MLS logo history transitioned toward more versatile branding. During the early 2000s, the league introduced the first MLS alternate logo sets to provide variety for different major league soccer teams. These variations allowed the MLS logo to adapt to various color schemes while maintaining a cohesive major league soccer logo presence across North America.
Furthermore, the MLS logo underwent a massive transformation in 2014 with the "MLS Next" campaign. This new MLS logo version featured a slash and three stars to represent club, country, and community. Since then, the MLS alternate logo has become an essential tool for major league soccer teams to showcase their specific club colors. You can visit our MLS wordmark logo page to see how the league's typography has evolved. Today, the MLS logo serves as a minimalist and modern icon that connects fans across the entire major league soccer logo landscape.
