Our bats will carry our logo on the edges, this will hopefully be an edge stamp as opposed to stickers.

A special thank you to our logo designer too.
-
Looks similar to TLB's
-
Will look good stamped on the edges IMO!
Nice simple but recognizable logo as well!
-
Ditto very much like TLB in my opinion.

I see no harm in it; great minds think alike and we have a few on this forum ;)
-
Similar but still they look quite brilliant in my opinion, stamped on edges it will look nice as well.
-
So will all your batshave this stamp? Even those currently for sale?
-

your right they both have b's in them :)
-
you should have used capitals, this could be 99 or qq too. sorry I am a little underwhelmed, and it is also way too much like Tom's.
so many options for this too. :(
-
What about having a simple white or black background and the words BLANK? I think that might be an interesting idea.
The logo as such looks really good.

Must admit i kind of agree with Buzz. Far to similar to TLB's.
-
i like it :) but defo get it stamped on edge not a sticker
-
you could even use this which is the same font, same style... (please remember I did this in 1 min in paint - so it can be cleaned up to look better)
(http://i895.photobucket.com/albums/ac151/buzzrockport/BB.png)
you could then have the second "B" transparent - as it is above (although that is beyond me in paint)
If you really knew what you were doing you could change the line through the B to represent a seam mark too - which would be my preference, but I really can't do that in paint!
-
is it not in exactly the same font as what tom used?
-

that would be quite a large all black B which will take some burning into the bat....think TON kind of thing that if u have to press to hard for too long will blister the wood
-

it will be getting stamped on boys
i think its going to look pretty impressive

turn this upside down and it says 99 - which isn't as good as a ton (!) ;)

haha, would you like a flake with that luv :)
-
I like them!
-
Where can I get one of those bats with 66 on the side?
-
I like that Tim.
-
I like them!
thankyou
-
I like it.
Let me know if you need any promo merch!
This Logo would look great on Black Baseball Caps.
-
My point wasn't that I didn't like it - in fact I do, it was simply that you would spend a lot of time saying it's bb rather than 66!
You know what people are like!
-

Im thinking white t shirts, with the logo and then the web address written inside a bat under the logo. these would be good for training etc
not sure if that makes.
-
is it not in exactly the same font as what tom used?
i think its Bauhaus font.
-
i rang the intellectual property offices in Newport to discuss the logo, our perfect logo would have been the one used by "best of the best". but i was advised to make it sufficiently different so as not to mislead the general public. i dont think its that bad tbh, sometimes you make a decision and go with it. logo or no logo ultimately its about the bats imo.
-
I like the logo, But dont like logo's on the bat edge, I much prefer a blank bat as such you are selling,

We can supply the bats without the edge stamps if preferred?
-

I think your right mate
-
Isn't even having BB on the side contradicting the name of the bat itself? I'm confused, sorry
-
If you want to be able to identify your bat then how about stamping the logo into the top of the handle
-

How would people see it?
-
Are the stampings for promoting the brand? As visible branding contradicts the idea of blank bats
-
Or just get handle stickers done that go at the top of the handle where you can see the springs.
-
Think its about protecting the brand without compromising the selling point
-
We want to be able to let people know that it's a quality UK made bat. A means of it being able to identify itself. It's all minimalistic. I appreciate it won't be totally blank any more but something's gotta give.
-

Without the bb Branding its could be any blank bat you see on eBay, the fact that these are made in the UK & that a 'genius' makes them :) has created a brand worth protecting I think.
-
Spot on.

And the winner is pacman :)
-
Sometimes 'less is more' and to me it works well. Like it alot
-
Prefer the idea of on the handle or etched onto the shoulder, one B on each. In fact much prefer the lazer etching a la willowstix to stamping
-
Think its about protecting the brand without compromising the selling point
In that case does it have to been seen? Hence why I suggested the handle, or shoulders seem like a good idea

Thanks mate, il show you some of these beauties soon

Bit of free publicity for Jeffrey and his shoe company but what about just a simple blank bats signature like this? that would look very classy imo or are these designs final?
-
Offer the option of slightly more branding through stickers, but all bats should come with an edge branded if only to stop ebay knock offs!
-
Haha thanks simmy
Did I mention the gf kisses every blank bat giving it her seal of approval ;)
Pics can be supplied if necessary :)
Forget the bb - this should be your edge branding...

I think you've been speaking to the same person I have lol ;)

Canners - I did say that your better half could come up with something better... ;)

-
How about logo like this.. I have copied it from somewhere like Peter123dabba copied Asad's pic ;) BUT this can be changed little bit to your specifications :)
-
That is more of a wedding banquet hall lol!
No offence intended :)
-
Rajesh I really like that I toyed with idea of reversing the b's but thought it looked too much like an 8, however what you've done there looks really good and classy
Nice to have a valuable post and not just people digging us out
Thanks

Maybe would look better with a bolder font

pah - my post on the lips was serious Canners - totally unique - I was also thinking of the bullseye logo - but there is more of something behind the lips!
I like Rajesh's suggestion too
-
It's funny you posted that when you did as I was talking about that exact same suggestion to someone else when you posted that
It's definitely something for the future
I'm thinking our le range :)
-
I like the logo just as it is.... keeps the bats blank but lets folk know the quality.....what more could you want??? nice work :)
-
playing the logo quiz i have just realised that your logo is very similar to "birdhouse" but obviously doubled up, not a criticism as i like the logo! i just knew i recognised the b's!!!!!
