Evolution of Argentinian Club Logos
With major Argentinian club River Plate having recently updated their logo, we thought it would be interesting to take a look at some other clubs' logos from the South American nation. Twitter user @FrancooC07 created a neat summary of the logo evolution of some of Argentina's biggest football clubs.
Logo Evolution in Argentina
Boca Juniors
Boca has a tradition of adding titles as stars inside of their shield instead of placing stars above the crest. Obviously, this means that the club's logo will constantly be changed.
The club have had their signature blue and yellow shield look for many decades now.
River Plate
River Plate are the most recent club in this list to alter their crest. This change was nothing noteworthy, however.
Boca's main rivals have also had their own iconic shield shape for some time, as well as the CARP acronym, the oldest remaining aspect of their crest.
San Lorenzo
Using yet another shield for a crest, San Lorenzo have only added minor updates to their logo. The vertical blue and red stripes and the acronym in the center have not changed much over the years.
Racing Club
Pictured above is only a glimpse at Racing Club's quite extensive logo evolution. Most noteably, the club first started featuring the sky blue and white stripes on their crest in 1928, almost 100 years ago.
Indepentiente
Back in 1905, Indepentiente's crest honored Saint Andrew with the Scottish flag. In fact, the old 1905 badge is still used on Independiente's away kits to this day.
The club's current logo has its roots in 1935, when the shield was adopted alongside the letters CAI.

Leaked: Adidas Originals River Plate Retro Shirt Hints at 26-27 Away Kit
We have the first image of a brand-new Adidas Originals River Plate retro shirt. It is part of the team's 26-27 away collection.
The River Plate retro shirt features a color-blocked design reminiscent of classic 1980s sportswear. The upper half of the torso and the raglan sleeves are solid red, while the lower half is crisp white. Separating the two sections is a prominent, thick black horizontal chest band. A classic white Adidas Trefoil logo and the traditional River Plate shield sit high on the chest, keeping the design completely free of modern sponsors for a pure, vintage aesthetic.

Giving the shirt a distinct early 1990s retro feel, a red fold-over collar is included with black striping and a black V-shaped insert at the front. A tonal graphic pattern runs across both the green and red sections, adding texture to the Macron Eco Fabric. The Macron Hero logo appears in white on the chest and sleeves, sitting opposite the stitched Glentoran crest and its accompanying gold star.
Additional details include the club motto Le Jeu Avant Tout embroidered in white on the back of the collar, and Glentoran FC Est 1882 printed inside the lower hem. Featuring Bet McLean as the main sponsor, the new Glentoran 2026-27 home shirt is completed with matching white shorts and green socks.
