After revealing a new name and logo within two weeks, the Columbus team has again a new name and logo. Continuing with the same theme, the newly minted name of “Columbus Crew” has added the new name to the logo and added the number “96,” representing the first MLS club to join in 1996.

This logo is shaped like the Ohio flag and has a white letter “C” in the middle of a black background. The team says the letter “C” represents the Crew primarily and also the city name. A gold outline surrounds the flag with a wordmark on top: “COLUMBUS” in black and “Crew” on the bottom. The number “96” is located in the bottom right corner in white.
