Since the NFL and Nike do not publicly release the exact proprietary formulas for new uniforms immediately, these are the best digital approximations used by designers to match the “H-Town” alternate uniforms (which visually replicate the historic “Columbia Blue”).
Best Match for Digital Design (Vibrant/Modern)
This code matches the vibrant light blue seen on the “H” logo against the dark navy helmet.
HEX: #418FDE
RGB: 65, 143, 222
CMYK: 68, 34, 0, 0
Alternative Match (Vintage/Soft)
If you want a look closer to the “faded” or traditional Houston Oilers aesthetic (which H-Town Blue references), use this slightly more muted tone:
HEX: #75B2DD
RGB: 117, 178, 221
Usage Tip for Photoshop/Illustrator:
To get the Official “H-Town” Look, you must pair this blue with the Texans’ primary Deep Steel Blue:
Deep Steel Blue (Background): #03202F
Note: When printing (CMYK), “H-Town Blue” can be tricky. It is recommended to do a test print, as bright blues often print darker than they appear on screen.
