Chargers Colors: Powder Blue, Sunshine Gold and White

This guide covers the official Los Angeles Chargers colors, their HEX, RGB and Pantone codes and how they appear on 2026 jerseys. It does not cover logo history, which has its own guide where available.

Los Angeles Chargers colors at a glance

What each color is used for

The Los Angeles Chargers colors are powder blue, sunshine gold and white. Powder blue is the home jersey color, gold is the lightning bolt and the Charger Power alternate, and white is the road jersey and the helmet. Fans who type "chargers color codes" or "chargers color palette" are looking for these three.

Navy and royal blue are alternate-era colors. Wikipedia says the 2020 rebrand removed navy from the logos and uniforms, but the navy Super Chargers alternate returned in July 2025. We found no published HEX for the alternate navy, so the table lists it as not published.

Powder blue returned as the primary home color in 2019, and the April 2020 rebrand removed navy from the logos. Read the Chargers uniform history.

Chargers colors by jersey style

Which color to buy first

If you buy one Chargers jersey, buy the home style: powder blue, gold bolts. Add the away style (white, powder blue and gold) as a second jersey. Then compare tiers in our Nike Game vs Limited vs Elite guide and check the NFL jersey size chart before you order.

Colors you can buy

Our catalog lists Chargers jerseys in these colors, with the number of listings in brackets: Navy (5), Gold (5), Powder Blue (5), White (3), Royal (2), Black (1). Colors on a listing describe the jersey body, so check the style name to see whether it is a home, away, alternate or throwback. Game and Limited tiers both come in the main colors.

A note on the color codes

The HEX and Pantone codes above come from Team Color Codes, a secondary source, because we could not reach a published Chargers brand guide. The RGB values are converted from the HEX codes so the three columns agree, and Pantone matches are approximations. Screens and fabrics show the same code differently, so use the codes as a reference and compare against the jersey photo. Team Color Codes lists some historical palettes with slightly different values from current ones. Use HEX for web design, RGB for screens and Pantone for print and fabric matching, for example when you plan a banner, a craft project or a matching accessory for your jersey.
