San Diego Padres Colors and Uniforms

The San Diego Padres have the primary colors of midnight blue, sand, and white. However, they also wear camouflage on Sunday home games at PETCO Park, as San Diego is a location of a United States Military base. They do this to honor the military. The home jerseys are white, the away jerseys are grey, and the alternate jersey is midnight blue. From 1974 to 1984, the Padres wore yellow, burnt orange, and brown. The San Diego Padres have used six different logos and four different color combinations throughout their history.
