Texas Longhorn Colors begin with a shade that can enter the stadium before the logo does. Official Burnt Orange #BF5700 carries nearly all the identity, while white gives it the clean spacing of a jersey number against a packed field.
Burnt Orange and white are the official team colors. Charcoal, limestone, tangerine, and sunshine come from the university's approved secondary system, giving digital layouts structure and moments of energy without pretending the Longhorns have six official team colors.
The restraint matters: UT guidance specifically warns against making tints of Burnt Orange. Let #BF5700 dominate, use white as open space, bring charcoal or limestone in for hierarchy, and reserve the brighter support colors for small signals rather than equal-width brand statements.
