Utah Jazz Primary Logo

utah-jazz-primary-logo

This is the fifth logo change the team has undergone in its 36-year history, dating back to the inaugural 1974 - 1975 season in Louisiana. The mountain logo is still considered the primary logo by the NBA for now, but Jazz president Randy Rigby said the J-note will be used by the team as the "featured logo" for the near future.

"The revised designs offer a cohesive representation of the Utah Jazz brand with the integration of new elements and iconic Jazz marks," chief marketing officer Craig Sanders said in a news release. "We remain true to our navy, gold and green colors for Jazz fans and the team, but present them in a clean and modern fashion. This brand identity package reflects our franchise history with an eye to the future."

The look harkens back to a team that was born as the New Orleans Jazz with the ‘J’ as an eighth note in 1974. The logo evolution has gone full circle as an acknowledgment of the team’s heritage. The mountain logo is no longer part of the graphics package with an emphasis now on the ‘Jazz’ wordmark and the name of the home state embedded above the nickname, which echoes the primary logo from 1979-96.
