Denver Broncos colors: names, HEX, RGB and Pantone codes
The Denver Broncos use the colors below. The codes come from Teamcolorcodes.com, which lists them as the team's colors but is not affiliated with the team or the league, so treat them as secondary and check the team's brand guide before print work.
| Color | HEX | RGB | Pantone | Where it appears |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broncos Orange | #FB4F14 | 251, 79, 20 | PMS 1655 C | Home jersey and numbers |
| Broncos Navy | #002244 | 0, 34, 68 | PMS 289 C | Helmet, trim and the Midnight Navy alternate |
Where each Broncos color appears on the jersey
Each Nike jersey style uses the team palette a little differently. The 2026 line-up below comes from our Broncos jerseys 2026 guide.
| Style | Colors | 2026 status |
|---|---|---|
| Home | Sunset Orange | Four home games |
| Away | Summit White | Nine road games |
| Alternate | Midnight Navy | Sept. 27 and Dec. 25 |
| Throwback | Orange Crush-inspired orange | Oct. 15 and Week 18 |
Our catalog lists 17 Broncos jerseys by colorway: Orange 8, Navy 4, White 4, Black 1. Black is a fashion colorway in our catalog, not a Broncos team color. Open the home or away jerseys to compare.
HEX, RGB and Pantone: which Broncos color code to use
A HEX code such as #FB4F14 for Broncos Orange is the six-digit value web designers use. The RGB values (251, 79, 20) describe the same color for screens, and a Pantone number such as PMS 1655 C is the ink match printers use for logos and apparel. For a website, a social graphic or a fan-made banner, use HEX; for a printed shirt or sign, ask your printer for the Pantone code.
Colors can look different on a jersey than on a screen, because fabric, lighting and screen settings all change how a shade appears. If you need an exact match for a hat, paint or décor, hold the fabric next to your sample instead of trusting a code alone. Broncos Navy (#002244) is the second shade to check against.
Broncos jersey colorways on our store
Nike names its colorways differently from the team palette, so a College Navy or Scarlet jersey may not match the hex codes above exactly. This table counts what our catalog lists today.
| Colorway | Jerseys listed | Tiers | Styles |
|---|---|---|---|
| Orange | 8 | Game and Limited | Game, Throwback, Vapor F.U.S.E. Limited |
| Navy | 4 | Game and Limited | Game, Vapor F.U.S.E. Limited |
| White | 4 | Game and Limited | Game, Vapor F.U.S.E. Limited |
| Black | 1 | Limited | Salute to Service |
Matching Broncos colors for game day
Start with the jersey, then keep the rest of the outfit neutral so the Broncos Orange stays the focus. Broncos Navy works as an accent in a cap, scarf or sneakers, and white or denim are safe base layers. If you want to dress up a Broncos jersey, our jersey styling guide has more outfit ideas, and the washing guide keeps the colors bright after the first wash.
How the Broncos colors changed
The Broncos moved from a royal blue to navy with the 1997 redesign, and the orange became slightly brighter. The Orange Crush throwback revives the earlier orange and royal blue pairing.
| Period | Colors |
|---|---|
| 1970–1996 | Orange #FA4616 (PMS 172 C), Blue #001489 (PMS Reflex Blue) |
| 1997–present | Broncos Orange #FB4F14 (PMS 1655 C), Broncos Navy #002244 (PMS 289 C) |

Which Broncos jersey matches the colors
Nike sells the jersey in the Game and Limited tiers; Game is the relaxed fit and Limited is slimmer with stitched numbers, as our tier guide explains. Pick a size with the size chart, then shop all Denver Broncos jerseys. For a classic look, see throwback jerseys.
