Pittsburgh Steelers colors: names, HEX, RGB and Pantone codes
The Pittsburgh Steelers 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Steelers Gold | #FFB612 | 255, 182, 18 | PMS 1235 C | Helmet, numbers and pants |
| Black | #101820 | 16, 24, 32 | PMS Black 6 C | Home jersey |

Where each Steelers color appears on the jersey
Each Nike jersey style uses the team palette a little differently. The 2026 line-up below comes from our Steelers jerseys 2026 guide.
| Style | Colors | 2026 status |
|---|---|---|
| Home | Black with gold numbers | Main home uniform |
| Away | White jersey | Main road uniform |
| Alternate | Gold throwback and Color Rush | Dates not announced |
| Throwback | Gold 1933 replica | One feature game |
Our catalog lists 16 Steelers jerseys by colorway: Black 9, Gold 4, White 3. White is the road jersey color, and the page does not list a code for it. Open the home or away jerseys to compare.
HEX, RGB and Pantone: which Steelers color code to use
A HEX code such as #FFB612 for Steelers Gold is the six-digit value web designers use. The RGB values (255, 182, 18) describe the same color for screens, and a Pantone number such as PMS 1235 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. Black (#101820) is the second shade to check against.
Steelers 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Black | 9 | Game and Limited | Game, Salute to Service, Vapor F.U.S.E. Limited |
| Gold | 4 | Game and Limited | Throwback, Vapor F.U.S.E. Limited |
| White | 3 | Game and Limited | Game, Vapor F.U.S.E. Limited |
Matching Steelers colors for game day
Start with the jersey, then keep the rest of the outfit neutral so the Steelers Gold stays the focus. Black 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 Steelers jersey, our jersey styling guide has more outfit ideas, and the washing guide keeps the colors bright after the first wash.
How the Steelers colors changed
The Steelers' team colors are black and gold, while the blue, red and silver listed above come from the Steelmark logo. The 1933 throwback revives the gold look of the team's first season.
