Meaning and History
The 1982 logo was not without one of the main symbols of Hawaii Warriors – a colorful rainbow. According to legend, she appeared next to the stadium during the final match of 1923. Since then, there have been rumors that athletes at the University of Hawaii at Manoa cannot lose when a rainbow appears in the sky. But the artists did not depict it completely but limited themselves to only four colors: red, yellow, green, and blue. Also, they supplemented the composition with the letters “U” and “H.”
The bright emblem existed until 1997. In 1998, it was replaced by a brutal brand name with the letter “H,” in which the outer sides have sharp notches. The motifs of the traditional totem pole are traced in the figure. The palette is restrained: green, white, black, and blue. The last two colors are used for contours, and the first two are used as primary.
