Bring clean collegiate style to your stitching with this Ball State Cardinals design, based on the 1990 to 2014 university cardinal head. The profile is all sharp intent: a pointed beak, feathered crest and angled outlines, with three trailing feather streaks that give the logo its sense of movement. It suits alumni, students and collectors who want a recognisable Ball State mark that looks crisp rather than fussy.
With four thread colours and a moderately dense build, it has enough fill to look solid while still keeping the lines readable. It will sit particularly well on sweatshirts, varsity jackets, canvas tote bags, backpacks and cap fronts, where the red, black and white palette stands out cleanly against black, grey, white or natural fabrics. The modern geometry gives it a neat, professional look on twill, denim and stable cottons, especially when you want a bold university emblem without extra ornament.
