What are Racing Club's colors?

Racing Club is closely identified with the Sky Blue and White vertical stripes of its traditional home shirt. Founded on March 25, 1903, in Avellaneda, the club developed this distinctive color combination during the early decades of Argentine football. Alternating sky-blue and white stripes have remained the central feature of Racing’s playing identity even as shirt manufacturers, collars, trim, and other details have changed over time. The same colors appear prominently in the club crest, creating a consistent visual connection between the badge and the home kit. Racing plays its home matches at Estadio Presidente Perón in Avellaneda. Its sporting record includes the 1967 Copa Libertadores and Intercontinental Cup, while sky blue and white have remained the enduring visual foundation of Racing Club.

Racing Club’s crest gives its color identity a particularly precise form. The club’s statutes describe seven equal vertical stripes arranged in alternating Sky Blue and White: four sky-blue stripes and three white stripes, with sky blue at both outer edges. The upper field carries the Racing name above the striped section. In 2009, the club adjusted the badge proportions and standardized an official shade of sky blue as part of its identity system. A later redesign refined the presentation while preserving the established striped structure, keeping the crest visually connected to the colors and vertical pattern associated with Racing’s traditional shirt.
