Logo Anatomy
The Logo is based on Seattle's maritime history and a Kraken which is a sea monster in Scandanavian folklore. Another note about the logo is the "S" pays homage to the Metropolitans, who has a similar logo.
The Needle
The logo sits atop the Space Needle, an iconic landmark in the city and the world. The secondary logo is shaped like an anchor, which has the Space Needle on top.
All Three Logos
Here's a closer look at all three logos. The team's main colors are icy blue, navy blue, and red, which are displayed on the primary logo. The anchor is the secondary logo with the third being the wordmark.
Jerseys
The primary logo will be featured in the front of both jerseys and it will be also on the pants. As for the secondary logo, the anchors will be on the shoulders. The navy blue jersey will be the team's home uniform.
Logo Comparison
As you can see, the Kraken logo has some similarities to the Metropolitans logo. Seattle Fans are hoping the Kraken can have the same success as the Metropolitans as the city is looking for another pro sports championship.
More on the Second Logo
Making the Kraken second logo an anchor fits Seattle perfectly. As the years go by, we could see the anchor logo on more apparel because some fans like it better than the primary logo.
Similar to Mariners
The logo has also been compared to the Seattle Mariners logo because of the "S." That is not a bad thing because the Mariners are loved by the community, especially when Ken Griffey Jr. was making an impact in the 1990s.
