Oregon Ducks Color Codes
The official Oregon Ducks colors are commonly used across team branding, uniforms, digital graphics, fan designs, presentations and web projects. The table below lists the best available color values for HEX, RGB, CMYK and Pantone references. Current official University of Oregon guidance identifies UO Green and UO Yellow as the primary brand colors.

Official-source note: The current University of Oregon color guide and trademark guidance specify Pantone 356 for UO Green and Pantone 107 for UO Yellow. Older official Oregon Athletics materials used names such as Thunder Green and Lightning Yellow with different Pantone references. This article follows the current official UO specifications because no newer, publicly available athletics-only color build was found. The current official pages do not publish RGB values, so the RGB entries above are labeled as conversions from the official HEX codes rather than official RGB specifications.
How to Use Oregon Ducks Colors
You can use the Oregon Ducks 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. For accessible web layouts, use the official HEX values and check contrast before publishing. The official UO guide specifically warns against white text on a yellow background because the contrast can be difficult to read.
Color references do not grant permission to reproduce protected Oregon Ducks names, logos, mascot artwork or other trademarks. Personal and editorial projects should still avoid implying official sponsorship. Commercial merchandise, paid promotions and official-looking brand applications should follow University of Oregon licensing requirements.
Oregon Ducks HEX Color Codes
The main Oregon Ducks HEX color codes are #007030 for UO Green and #FEE11A for UO Yellow. A conventional supporting black reference is #000000, but that black HEX value is a best available estimate rather than an officially published UO color build. The official green and yellow HEX values are intended for web design, HTML, CSS, digital graphics and online branding references.
Oregon Ducks RGB Color Codes
The best available Oregon Ducks RGB conversions are 0, 112, 48 for UO Green and 254, 225, 26 for UO Yellow. These values are converted directly from the official HEX codes because the current official UO color pages do not publish RGB specifications. RGB values are useful for screen-based designs, including social media posts, digital banners, video graphics and presentation slides.
Oregon Ducks CMYK Color Codes
The official general-use Oregon Ducks CMYK color builds are 96, 26, 100, 15 for UO Green and 0, 6, 99, 0 for UO Yellow. The official color guide also publishes UO Print Services equipment-specific alternatives: green at 90, 10, 100, 20 for coated stock, green at 90, 0, 100, 18 for uncoated stock, and yellow at 0, 6, 76, 0. Use those alternatives only when appropriate for that print workflow. Because output varies by printer, paper, coating, ink and color profile, always request a proof before final production.
Oregon Ducks Pantone Colors
The current official Oregon Ducks primary Pantone references are Pantone 356 for UO Green and Pantone 107 for UO Yellow. Pantone values are useful when designers need consistent spot-color matching across professional print and branding materials. The official guide lists Legacy Green as Pantone 3435, but treats it as a secondary color and restricts its use as a primary replacement mainly to commencement-specific applications. No current official Pantone value was found for the supporting black reference.
