Some guy created this, got spooked by how similar it looked to the changed one we had

Honestly i just hate when people try to simplify everything, noot a fan of the design, nothing beats the current badge

Honestly it was not that bad a re-design, we got off much more lightly than Juve fans for example. I do prefer the original/the one we have now, but I have to admit that from a design perspective the 2017 logo was better, even if the green and red of the tree and black of the bear would have improved it.

I also think it was just too much change in a short amount of time. The board clearly thought "new stadium, new identity" but a new stadium with a new foreign investor and a new badge was too much all at once.

It was as simple as not ruining the color scheme. Keeping the bear black would have also been welcome

Honestly the tree being a tree makes this 100x better than the real redesign

And shows that they were close to not screwing up, but somehow they managed to botch it.

The only thing that beats the current badge is current badge with golden outline tbh.. I know its not a part of our club colors but aesthetically it just hits better with the outline

Kill me, but I love the new logos. They are prettier, simpler, but do not trash the legacy like most of the reworks nowadays

This particular example is taking the worst of both badges, the weird shape of the new one and the ugly bear and tree from the classic.

Yeah man, the MS paint madroños are not something I'd miss.

Honestly, the redesigned crest we had wasn't that bad. I whish they'd made the top flat, and added some color to the bear and tree, it wouldve been rad.

I liked the discarded logo that everyone hated, but I didn't like the lack of color. This one fixes that issue 😃

I actually think it is a good design as it was the previous one but the fan base who voted to return to the original seemed to be quite old on average and very close minded to change.
