ColeJ Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 the RGB for this color is 223-141-7...does any team that you know of use a color similar to this? the yellows i find are too green, and the oranges i find are too red... i can't find a good orangey-yellow anywhere.

LMU Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 The absolute closest I can think of is the Nashville Predators, but their's is a lighter shade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted September 29, 2004 Author Share Posted September 29, 2004 The absolute closest I can think of is the Nashville Predators, but their's is a lighter shade. yeah, the preds piping is a little too light... just checked my white mike dunham jersey... and the third jersey is too dark and unsaturated.....-sigh- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbman21 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Hmmm....I'm probably way off but I'm going to say that looks (to my eyes) similar to the Golden State Warriors golden-orange.I'm familiar with it because I just did a concept using their color scheme.I dont know though.

Puckguy14 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Maybe the San Jose Sharks? The primary logo has a burnt orange 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted September 29, 2004 Author Share Posted September 29, 2004 Maybe the San Jose Sharks? The primary logo has a burnt orange thanks for the suggestion, as it IS fairly close... however, that won't help me one bit... that place where avenger got his rooster pilots jersey is going to make my texas tequila hockey jerseys... and we're trying to figure out where we can get mesh in tequila colors (tequila gold and lime green) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 The closest Pantone color to that is 144 C. Don't know of any team that uses that color though. It's also relatively close to 138 C as well...a color that used to be used by the Kansas City Royals (the crown in their logo) and the Milwaukee Bucks in their former logo.As far as what's in my database, the following franchises used (or use) 144 C:El Paso Buzzards (Western Professional Hockey League)Hawaiian Islanders (arenafootball2)Edinburg Roadrunners (Central League)1995 Super Bowl1997 American BowlNorthwest League 2004 All-Star Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paynomind Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Looks similar to the Thrashers orange.. though any answer I provide AFTER pantone means I have no idea what I'm talking about.

slapshot Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 How close is that color to the University of Texas' orange? I tried putting them up side by side with the Longhorns logo I have (I don't know if it's correct Pantone colors), but your color is slightly more brown. Texas' orange seems closer to burnt orange, not as bright as Tennessee, but maybe it's a closer match than any other pro team.

robbman21 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 I didnt notice when I posted the first time that you had the RGB up there.The RGB I have(though this is not Pantone-endorsed) for the Warriors' logo orange/gold isR249 G161 B26,so slightly off from what you posted.

LimeGuy Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 When I look at the color, I think Tennessee Volunteers. Or the old Buccaneer Orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Pantone... are the University of Texas' Burnt Orange and the Durham Bulls' "Texas Tan" the exact same color? If not, is the Bulls' "Texas Tan" closer to what Cole has posted here? Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjrbaseball Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Could that be close to "Old Gold" that the Pirates once used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Could that be close to "Old Gold" that the Pirates once used? It's close...not a bad guess.144 C or 138 C are pretty much on the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 i know nothing about how things like this work, so do you think if i told the company who's making the jerseys which pantone would work, that would help them find the fabric more easily?he recommended capitals copper, but first of all, i don't want shimmer material, and second of all, the copper looks WAAY off to me.
