I don't like the logos. They seem clunky and inelegant. My favorite logo is the Brooks Brothers golden fleece. The Hickey Customized logo with a hand holding a needle and thread is a good one that gets the point across cleanly. I would consider something like a loom or needle and thread.

The colours are a bit Jokerish for my liking.Originally Posted by R-H
Yes, the "Jokerish" colors are definitely a no-go. However, the simplicity of the buttons and scissors are very expressive and work nicely... but not within the crest, which makes for a strange juxtaposition of the elegant and ironic.
Definitely a start though.

The new logo looks good but I would change these two points:
1) replace the colour purple with something more subdued (it has that 1994 minor league baseball expansion team logo vibe)
2) get rid of the pin cushion (it looks like a human head with pins)
Otherwise I like it.

This isn't the best picture of it (there are more somewhere on the net, but I couldn't find one readily), but in terms of overall balance/shape/design and such, I find Gucci's new crest/logo to be quite interesting:

I work in strategy, and when looking at a logo I must first ask the following questions:Originally Posted by johnnyblazini
- What type of products are you planning to sell (brands, used, types, etc.)
- Who is your target market
- What is your positioning strategy (what is your corporate identity, what do you stand for)
- What is your branding strategy (how do you wish to be perceived by your clients)
I also work in strategy. Here's a couple of useful links from some friends of ours:

Seriously, it's not bad for a home-grown logo. You could use it.
That said, I don't like the 2 pairs of scissors crossing. You can make a cross with a single pair of scissors. Or you can cross the pair of scissors with something else.
I don't think the colors are particularly appealing.
I think you can simplify your logo, you don't need to have scissors, buttons, AND pins. I think you can use one of those as a main motif and get rid of the rest.

Isn't that the original crest? As for the pincushion, I think a different scheme, a pincushion could be interesting as a kind of logo. I recently saw an Otl Aicher poster of a German heraldic crest that was exceptionally well-done. I think it was done for the 1972 Munich Olympics, which was one of his legendary commissions.
