Spurs Alternate Logo
The San Antonio Spurs' alternate logo history is an interesting one, full of twists and turns. The team has gone through several different logos over the years, but each design has been a reflection of the team’s commitment to excellence.
The first alternate logo was used from 1989-1992 and featured a black silhouette of a spur with “San Antonio Spurs” written in white lettering above it. This simple yet effective design set the tone for all future designs as it highlighted both their city name and mascot at once.
In 2002, they switched up their look by introducing silver into their color scheme along with red accents which made for an eye-catching combination that still stands out today on merchandise like hats or t-shirts! They also added more detail to the spurs themselves by making them three-dimensional instead of just flat silhouettes - this gave them more depth visually speaking which helped make them even more recognizable around town (and beyond). Lastly, they changed up how “Spurs” was written - now using block letters instead so that there would be no confusion about who exactly these items were representing!
