About the Los Angeles Chargers palette
The Los Angeles Chargers were founded in 1960 and compete in the American Football Conference of the National Football League. Their primary colour, Powder Blue #0080C6, is a mid-tone, strongly saturated indigo.
The National Football League divides its thirty-two teams between two conferences, and uniform colour is regulated more tightly here than in any other major league: a team must register its colours with the league, and opposing teams are required to wear contrasting jerseys so that broadcast audiences can tell them apart.
Within the Western Division the Chargers face Denver Broncos, Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders. Those are the matchups where two palettes appear in one frame, so they are the pairings most worth checking for a clash.
Los Angeles is also home to Los Angeles Rams, Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Dodgers, which means local broadcast and print work often has to carry more than one of these palettes.
