Professional Sports Logo Design

A powerful sports logo does more than just identify a team or a brand; it captures emotion, inspires loyalty, and communicates strength. From local teams to international apparel brands, I specialise in professional sports logo design, creating memorable and impactful identities that stand out in a competitive field.

Key Principles of a Great Sports Logo

A successful sports logo is built on a foundation of core design principles. My approach focuses on creating logos that are not just visually striking, but are strategic assets for your brand.

  • Emotional Connection: The best sports logos evoke passion. Whether it’s the fierce intimidation of a symbolic logo or the clean, aspirational feel of a fitness brand, the design must connect with the audience on an emotional level.
  • Versatility and Scalability: A sports logo will be used everywhere—on jerseys, websites, merchandise, and social media. It must be designed as a robust vector graphic that is clear and powerful at any size, from a small app icon to a stadium banner.
  • Timeless Appeal: While trends come and go, a strong brand identity should be built to last. I focus on creating logos with a timeless, classic feel that won’t look dated in a few years, ensuring the longevity of your brand.

My Collaborative Process & Packages for Small Business

My entire process is designed to be straightforward, transparent, and collaborative, ensuring the final design perfectly aligns with your vision and business goals.

  • The Process: I follow a clear, 5-step design process that keeps you involved at every key stage, from the initial brief to the final delivery of your logo files. It’s a structured journey designed to make your logo design for small business experience exciting and rewarding. 

  • The Packages: My Standard and Premium packages are ideal for most small businesses, offering a professional, bespoke solution with a clear set of deliverables to fit your budget.

Gymshark
A Global Fitness Icon

As the original designer of the globally-recognised Gymshark logo, I was approached by founder Ben Francis to create a clean, iconic, and powerful brand mark. The now-famous emblem uses a forward-moving arrow shape to reveal the iconic shark head in the negative space.

FITVO
Modern Fitness Apparel:

The brief for FITVO called for a clean, modern logo for a new sports apparel brand. The final design is a dynamic emblem based on the word “FIT,” creating a timeless and iconic mark that looks at home on any piece of sportswear.

Falling Coast
Outdoor Sports Brand

The logo for this modular paddleboard company required an emblem made of three distinct parts. The result is a symbolic mark that evokes a coastal cliff face, with hidden details that form the brand’s initial.
