PROJECT DETAILS
Identity
Illustration
SPAM®, headquartered in Austin, Minnesota, is known as SPAM™ Town. The Sliders softball team, also located in Austin, wanted a unique logo that combines the essence of SPAM with the competitiveness of adult slow pitch softball.
We developed an identity that uses the distinct shape of the SPAM can while a softball rises from inside. A fun illustrative character by Paul Lange slides out of the letterforms to give dimension and movement. These elements combine seamlessly to form a professional sports identity that highlights their hometown.
