About the Las Vegas Raiders palette

The Las Vegas Raiders were founded in 1960 and compete in the American Football Conference of the National Football League. Their primary colour, Black #000000, is a near-black neutral.

The National Football League divides its thirty-two teams between two conferences, and uniform colour is regulated more tightly here than in any other major league: a team must register its colours with the league, and opposing teams are required to wear contrasting jerseys so that broadcast audiences can tell them apart.

Within the Western Division the Raiders face Denver Broncos, Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers. Those are the matchups where two palettes appear in one frame, so they are the pairings most worth checking for a clash.

Las Vegas is also home to Vegas Golden Knights, which means local broadcast and print work often has to carry more than one of these palettes.
