Real Sociedad’s badge is an unusual crest built around a golden vintage football, crowned by a royal crown and wrapped in a blue-and-white striped flag bearing the intertwined initials “SS”. The flag reflects the colours of San Sebastián’s municipal flag and the club’s txuri-urdin (white-and-blue) identity.
The royal crown was added after King Alfonso XIII granted the club his patronage in 1910, when it adopted the name Real Sociedad de Fútbol, and has appeared on the emblem from the earliest versions. The combination of ball, crown and maritime-style flag underlines La Real’s status as a royal-backed club from a coastal city, with only minor graphic tweaks over the decades.
