Official source: These specifications are reproduced from the Wyoming Athletics Brand Guide. The guide states that the primary colors apply to digital work and materials printed on non-fabric surfaces, while the apparel colors apply to apparel and other fabric-based materials.
Accuracy note: The official guide publishes Apparel Gold as RGB 241, 169, 0 and HEX #F2A900. Those two values are not an exact mathematical conversion because #F2A900 corresponds to RGB 242, 169, 0. This article preserves both values exactly as officially published rather than silently changing either specification.
How to Use Wyoming Cowboys Colors
Use Wyoming Brown #492F24 and Wyoming Gold #FFC425 for websites, social graphics, digital presentations and non-fabric printed materials when following the primary color standards. For uniforms, embroidery, screen printing and other fabric-based applications, use the separate apparel references: Apparel Brown #382E2C and Apparel Gold #F2A900. HEX codes are typically best for websites and CSS, RGB values are useful for screens and digital design, CMYK values are intended for process printing, and Pantone references help professional vendors match spot colors more consistently.
Color output can change across monitors, printers, papers, inks, textiles and production methods. For important commercial or licensed work, provide the relevant Pantone specification to the vendor, request a physical proof or sample, and follow the official Wyoming Athletics brand and trademark requirements.
