New Orleans Saints color codes: where they come from

We could not find a public brand guide from the New Orleans Saints or the NFL with color codes. The codes in the table come from a third-party site, Team Color Codes or the source named in the Sources list, so treat them as a close reference, not an official spec. If you print or paint with these colors, check them against the team's licensed materials. White is listed without a code on these sources.

Saints jersey colors by style

How the Saints colors changed

Black, old gold and white are the team colors, and Wikipedia says founder John W. Mecom Jr. chose black to reflect his oil business, since "black gold" is a term for oil. The fleur-de-lis was black through 1999 and old gold from 2000. The gold jersey returned in 2025, the first since 2002. For the full timeline see the New Orleans Saints uniform history.

HEX, RGB and Pantone: what the codes mean

A HEX code, such as the ones above, is a six-character web color. RGB gives the same color as red, green and blue values from 0 to 255. Pantone (PMS) is a printing system, and a "C" after the number means the color is matched for coated paper. Use HEX or RGB for screens and a Pantone number when you talk to a printer. The same Saints color can look different on a jersey, in a logo and on a screen, because fabric, light and the display change how it reads.

Matching Saints gear with other colors

When you pair Saints gear with other clothes, keep one team color dominant and let the others act as accents. Neutral white, gray or black layers work with most Saints jersey colors. A jersey in the team's main color is the easiest base. If you are comparing two Saints jerseys, look at which color the trim and numbers use, since that decides what shoes and caps match. These are style suggestions, not team guidance.
