Golden State Valkyries Color Codes
The official Golden State Valkyries colors are commonly used across team branding, uniforms, digital graphics, fan designs, presentations and web projects. Official team materials identify Valkyrie Violet as the core color, show it paired with black and confirm that gold belongs to the expanded palette. The team described gold as a secondary color in its 2024 secondary-logo announcement and as a tertiary color in its 2026 Explorer uniform announcement; this difference reflects the application context rather than a disagreement about whether gold is part of the palette. The table below separates values that can be verified in an official logo asset from values that are derived or estimated.
| Color Name | Pantone | HEX | RGB | CMYK |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Valkyrie Violet | Not officially published | #B896D4 (verified in official primary logo SVG) | 184, 150, 212 (derived from official HEX) | Best available estimate: 13, 29, 0, 17 |
| Black | Not officially published | #000000 (verified in official primary logo SVG) | 0, 0, 0 (derived from official HEX) | Best available estimate: 0, 0, 0, 100 |
| Gold | Not officially published | Best available estimate: #BA965B | Best available estimate: 186, 150, 91 | Best available estimate: 0, 19, 51, 27 |
How to Use Golden State Valkyries Colors
You can use the Golden State Valkyries color codes for digital design, website elements, social media graphics, printable materials, fan artwork, presentations and sports-related content. HEX codes are typically best for websites, RGB values are useful for screens and digital design, while CMYK values are mainly used for print projects. Use Valkyrie Violet as the primary visual identifier, black for strong contrast and gold as an accent where the expanded brand palette is appropriate. For accessibility, test text and background combinations rather than assuming every team-color pairing meets contrast requirements.
Golden State Valkyries HEX Color Codes
The main Golden State Valkyries HEX color codes are #B896D4 for Valkyrie Violet, #000000 for black and a best available gold estimate of #BA965B. The violet and black values are present in the official primary logo SVG. The gold value is sampled from official secondary-logo artwork because the team has not publicly published a formal gold HEX specification. These values can be used in HTML, CSS, digital graphics and online branding references, with the gold value treated as an estimate rather than an official standard.
Golden State Valkyries RGB Color Codes
The Golden State Valkyries RGB color codes are 184, 150, 212 for Valkyrie Violet; 0, 0, 0 for black; and a best available estimate of 186, 150, 91 for gold. The violet and black RGB values are mathematical conversions of the HEX colors found in the official primary logo SVG, not separately published RGB specifications. RGB values are useful for screen-based designs, including social media posts, digital banners, video graphics and presentation slides.
Golden State Valkyries CMYK Color Codes
The best available Golden State Valkyries CMYK estimates are 13, 29, 0, 17 for Valkyrie Violet; 0, 0, 0, 100 for black; and 0, 19, 51, 27 for gold. These are standard mathematical conversions from the listed digital color values and are not official team print specifications. CMYK values are useful for preliminary print layouts, but final output can vary by printer, paper, ink system and color profile. Always request a physical proof or use an approved brand file before commercial production.
Golden State Valkyries Pantone Colors
Pantone values are useful when designers need consistent color matching across professional print and branding materials. No official Golden State Valkyries Pantone numbers were found in the team website, official WNBA materials or publicly accessible official brand pages reviewed for this guide. Pantone values should therefore be listed as “Not officially published” rather than inferred. The official primary logo SVG supports the violet and black HEX values, while the gold value is a best available estimate from the team’s official secondary-logo artwork.

Can I use Golden State Valkyries colors for my own design project?
You can use Golden State Valkyries color codes as references for personal design work, fan content and non-commercial projects. Color values alone do not grant permission to use the team’s name, logos, uniforms or other protected brand assets. For commercial use, merchandise, advertising or anything that could imply an official relationship, review the team’s and WNBA’s current trademark and licensing requirements before publishing or selling the design.
