List of official team colors for professional sports

"Dodger blue" is MY color! Wow!

Another resource might be provided by Glidden's new officially licensed "Team Colors" line of paints.

You could grab a bunch of their paint chips and match-up the Pantone colors.

Hello,

I am a graphic designer who is trying to create mini banners for professional teams. I am having a hard time locating official Pantone colors for teams too. If you have found any colors (particularly for NFL teams), please let me know. Thank you.

BTW- I often know a teams "official" color name, yet cannot locate the Pantone value, ie., "Seal Brown" = ???

Brian, thanks for those links. However, all those pdfs are for "Proposed Franchise Colors." That is they are for concept only. They are not the real colors that the teams are using. I appreciate you posting the links, it's a nice effort. Our search continues for the official team colors.

I can't understand why teams don't put this information on their official sites.

I just found this on Packers.com. http://www.packers.com/news/stories/2003/01/16/1/

What are the official color shades of the Packers? -- Tim (Clarksville, TN)

This isn't on the FAQ page of Packers.com, but it should be (and soon will be). The official Packers colors are Dark Green (PMS 5535-C), Gold (PMS 1235-C) and White.

I am not the Tim that sent in this question, but it just goes to show you that great minds think alike.

Good luck compiling your list. If I get the time, I'll snoop around on the other team sites for the info.
