Primary Brand Color Ratio
The official colors of the SaberCats are Green and Gold and should be used in all cases when communicating on behalf of the brand. White is a supporting color in conjunction with Green and Gold. In the primary color palette, orange is an accent color that is used sparingly. This graphic shows a suggested balance of colors for brand communication.
Exceptions
Occasional opportunities arise to use an expanded color palette that ventures outside the primary color palette. Typical opportunities include the occasional use of unique uniforms, such as those promoting breast cancer awareness (pink). Though acceptable for special occasions, using colors outside the primary palette is not intended for long-term initiatives.
However, using colors outside of the palette is not permissible for purely aesthetic reasons. Seek approval from the San Jose SaberCats and the National Gridiron League for permissible applications and color recommendations.

When applying the San Jose SaberCats brand with permissible color exceptions, please adhere to the following guidelines:

-The SaberCats logo must be included in all applications with extended palettes.
