St. Louis City SC Primary Logo

The St. Louis City SC is a professional soccer club that was founded in 2019 and began playing in the Major League Soccer (MLS) league during the 2020 season. The team’s primary logo has gone through several iterations since its inception, each one representing different aspects of St. Louis culture and history while also paying homage to other teams from around the world.

The first iteration of their logo featured an eagle, which symbolized strength and resilience; two qualities that are essential for any successful sports franchise to have. This version also included elements from traditional heraldry such as fleur-de-lis symbols, which were derived from French crests used by European royalty centuries ago but now represent Saint Louis specifically due to its French heritage dating back to 1764 when it was established as a city under Spanish rule before becoming part of America after 1804's Louisiana Purchase agreement with France.

Finally, their current logo features a shield shape with three stars inside – representing Missouri’s nickname “the Show Me State” - along with three vertical stripes on either side resembling those found on flags belonging both domestically (like Washington DC) or internationally like Nigeria). All these visual cues work together harmoniously not only honoring local culture but also connecting them globally: something that all great sporting franchises strive towards achieving!
