While the history of professional baseball in Charlotte, North Carolina, started in 1892, the team Charlotte Knights began playing only in 1993. They declared themselves official heirs of the old team Charlotte Hornets.
The logo of the Charlotte Knights has gone the way from an image overloaded with small details to a more minimalistic and contemporary one. Read on to find out how it happened.
The core of the current Charlotte Knights logo is the large “C” with a knight’s helmet inside. The name of the team is placed below. There’s a crown on the letter “H.”
The gold color seems to fit the concept of “knighthood.” The team added grey, black, and white as secondary colors.
