George Fox Brand Colors

Primary Color Palette

Navy and slate blue are the primary colors to be used in large areas. Navy should always be at 100% tint, since lighter tints of it can appear slightly purple.

The slate blue, on the other hand, can be used in any percentage tint.

“Old Gold”

Old Gold and Navy Blue are the traditional school colors used in George Fox athletics. Old Gold works best when a spot metallic ink is available; it does not translate well into CMYK or RBG, which is why it is rarely used outside of athletics.
