Heracles Almelo’s badge is a tall white-framed shield on a black background, with “HERACLES” in bold white letters and “1903” beneath it, above a field of vertical black stripes. In the upper centre sits a circular panel with a stylised black lion’s head, while three small light-blue diamonds are stacked near the base of the shield. The black-and-white stripes are the club’s long-standing colours, retained when the current crest was introduced in 2015. The lion alludes to the club’s mythological namesake Heracles and taps into the traditional heraldic association of lions with strength and courage. The blue diamonds echo the “Almelo diamonds” from the city’s coat of arms and flag, giving the emblem a direct link to its home town.
