Vasalunds IF is a Swedish football club based in Solna, Stockholm, founded in 1934.[1] The club’s official colors are red and black.[2] The current crest is a shield-shaped emblem that incorporates the club’s red and black identity.
Design and History
Vasalunds IF was formed in 1934 and is affiliated with Stockholms Fotbollförbund.[1] The club’s visual identity has been tied to its red and black colors, which are documented as the club colors across multiple sources.[2]
In 2002, the club merged with Essinge IK and changed its name to Vasalund/Essinge IF. The merger was later discontinued, and the original name was restored before the 2008 season.[1] A Swedish club archive confirms that the club changed its name to Vasalund/Essinge IF after the merger with Essinge International FC, and then changed its name back to Vasalunds IF after the 2007 season.[3]
The club’s official website, vasalund.com, serves as the source for the current emblem, which is used across the club’s communications and matchday materials.[4]
Meaning and Symbolism
The club’s red and black colors are consistently documented as its official club colors.[2] The shield-shaped crest follows the traditional format common to Swedish football club emblems, though no official documentation of specific symbolic meaning behind the shield shape or individual color elements has been published by the club.
