While the arched lettering and shape of the glyphs have remained the same for at least two decades, the shades were slightly modified.
The Empire 8 logo features probably the oldest and most universally recognizable symbols of sports – a burning torch and laurel leaves. The torch itself is given in several shades of silver, which adds some dimension. The flame sports several shades of orange or yellow with white highlights. There is the lettering “Empire8” in large blue letters with grey and black trim. The word is slightly arched.
The lettering “Empire8” can be used as a standalone logo or together with a gray ring. The text “Tomorrow’s Leaders Compete Here Today” is placed inside the ring.
