1585, not 021

[VolMax]

You boys got your orange color number all off... It's 1585, not 021.

And it's Pantone Color System, dangit...not PMS. There are some things the Good Lord didn't mean for us to acronym.

Have some decency for cryin' out loud...

I want to see what the color code was in the 1950s. It is not the same as we see today. Maybe the shoe guys have determined what our color is today.

I thought the title of this thread was referencing the number of different shades of orange in the stadium on game day.

I have a buddy who during the mid and late 80's used to work for a company that did custom painting for different vendors and businesses. He got to paint some stuff that was going to Neyland Stadium. He said the paint that UT sent was made by Pittsburgh Paints and was called "Potent Orange". He still has a partial can of the stuff at his house.

used to be 021, but I think it was the mid-to-late 90's that they switched to 151. we used to do a significant amount of campus printed graphics, hence the random knowledge. If you look back at some of the historic samples, it's changed subtly a bunch of times. seems to loosely follow cultural trends. Interesting subtext is the Texas color switch -- still unclear to me if this was due to legal/licensing pressure (as I heard anecdotally) related to the interlocking orange U and T or if, as the folks in Austin would have you believe, they decided to change to fugly brorange on their own.
