What we wear now is the correct color, it had been off in the past. |

When you get out onto the field with different lights/shadows, they appear slightly different.
The decals are made my a third party, not the helmet manufacturer and are also matched to PMS 151. |

Thanks for the info. We can still do a checkerboard design of some kind though. I think that would look good. |

As somebody said earlier. It could also be due to the jerseys getting wet from sweat or water can make the orange look darker. |

| The practice uni's look like the Colts with orange instead of blue if you ask me. Also, all orange and orange pants with white jerseys are bad.
Orange jersey, white pants.
White jersey, white pants.
Stick with it. |
