DC have unveiled their new logo last week. The flag design was a huge change for the brand and anyone who’s seen footage from Street League last weekend can see how well this is going to work for them – the crowd was filled with crew waiving the flag! In addition, Mikey Taylor has been signed to the team. Check a few photos of Mikey at Street League above and the launch commercial for the new logo below!
