Working with San Francisco team colours

San Francisco supports 2 teams across National Football League and National Basketball Association, using 4 colour values between them. Regional broadcasters, local newspapers and city-wide merchandise frequently have to carry more than one of these palettes in a single piece of work, which is why the pairings above are worth checking before a layout is committed.

The darkest value in use here is Warriors Blue #1D428A and the lightest is Golden Yellow #FFC72C, a contrast of 6.12:1 between the two extremes. Any design that has to accommodate the full local range sits inside that span.

All of these palettes can be tested against a garment, and checked for print problems before committing to a run, in the design studio.
