That vest uses a logo that differs much *more* from the old web page 
logo that the newly installed logo on the web page does.

So if your reasoning is that what is on the web page is somehow the 
official logo and anything else is "obsolete", then these vests must 
have been obsolete since the first print run.

... and in that it doesn't differ one iota from the old logo on the web 
page, in case you have seen it.

If you have somehow got the idea that it has been decreed that anyone 
using the old, wide logo seen on the vest must now switch to the new, 
quadratic logo seen on the web page - that idea is wrong.

I have no idea but if it were my stock, I'd probably re-print the old 
logo without a second thought.
