Colours, Kits and Crest
Originally, the club's colours were white and black, as this is the main colour of the Branik Sports Association. However, at the start of the 2011–12 season, RK Maribor Branik changed their main colour to purple for better recognition, as purple is considered as one of the city's colours due to popularity of NK Maribor, the most successfull association football club in the country. Maribor Branik's main home kit colour is purple with black shorts, while the away kit is all-white. The third kit is all-black, but is rarely used. The first club's crest was shield-shaped with a black and white abstract silhouette of a handball player, which is typically for the Branik Sports Association clubs. In 2012, they changed the colours of the crest, which are now purple and white.

Famous quotes containing the word crest:
“What shall he have that killed the deer?
His leather skin and horns to wear.
Then sing him home.
Take thou no scorn to wear the horn,
It was a crest ere thou wast born;
Thy father’s father wore it,
And thy father bore it.
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn
Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
