Baltimore Ravens The Next Flight
AFTER 30 SEASONS, OUR NEW UNIFORM COLLECTION REPRESENTS AN EVOLUTION. INSPIRED BY OUR PAST SUCCESS, BUILT FOR THE FUTURE. INFUSED WITH THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A RAVEN PRIMED TO ATTACK, THE DESIGN EVOKES WINGS, TALONS AND IRIDESCENT ACCENTS THAT RADIATE PURPLE WHEN LIGHT STRIKES, REVEALING DARKNESS WHEN IT FADES. THE RAVENS — FANTASTIC TERRORS ADORNED IN PURPLE AND BLACK — NOW CARRY THE BALTIMORE NAME AND FLAG WITH THEM. READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE.
THE NEXT FLIGHT.
Designed to emulate the iridescence of a raven’s feathers, this color-shifting material radiates purple in the light, revealing darkness when it fades. Each jersey number now includes a Midnight Purple stroke, while the iridescent color also appears in the shield patches on the sleeves, the back collar of three jerseys and along the talon stripes across all pant varieties.
The pattern featured on the collar depicts a raven’s wings spread wide in a threat display, signaling aggression and dominance, while alluding to feather features included in the team’s original logo set.
The pant design imitates the sharpened claws of a raven, comparable to the stripes on the top of our helmets, with a diagonal cut to represent the Calvert crest seen in both the Baltimore and Maryland flags.
The team now sports the Baltimore name on the front of their white jerseys – most commonly worn on the road – representing Charm City wherever The Flock flies. The team name remains a mainstay across the front of the home jerseys.
The back collar of our purple, black and Purple Rising jerseys also includes “Baltimore,” while the white jersey reads “Ravens” given our city name now adorns the front. No matter which jerseys the team wears, they will now showcase the city we’ve called home since 1996. Notably, the text on the purple, white and black jerseys sits atop a Midnight Purple iridescent material.
Each jersey now includes a key phrase from the Ravens lexicon stitched inside the back collars.
PLAY LIKE A RAVEN
Originally used by former GM and current EVP, Ozzie Newsome, to describe the type of player who gives everything he has when he steps on the field, "Play Like a Raven" has been an organizational principle and utilized in team marketing since 2009. Signage depicting the phrase sits above the exit doors of the Ravens locker room and players are known to high-five the sign on their way out to the field. The slogan has become part of the fabric of the Baltimore Ravens culture and is now woven into the actual fabric of our two most-frequently worn jerseys.
DARKNESS THERE AND NOTHING MORE
Our all-black uniforms are the inspiration behind our Darkness theme games, and the black jersey will now feature this ominous quote from Edgar Allan Poe's, The Raven. Not only is the passage from our team's namesake poem, but it provides a blackout brand unique to the Ravens as Darkness Falls at M&T Bank Stadium when the team wears all black, and nothing more.
PURPLE RISING
Starting in 2024, our alternate purple uniforms were given the name "Purple Rising." The label embodies the mentality of the team when looking to rise back from any hardship or defeat, ready to conquer all. With this uniform update, the Purple Rising brand will now be included inside the collar of the alternate purple jersey.
Each of the three shield patches now feature Midnight Purple, with an iridescent keyline around the full-color mark, and the alternate looks contain two new treatments. The Darkness jersey shield features black and Midnight Purple, while the Purple Rising jersey shield is composed of Midnight Purple and metallic gold.
PURPLE & WHITE JERSEYS
The full-color shield patch is now outlined in Midnight Purple.
BLACK JERSEYS
The shield is composed solely of black and Midnight Purple, appearing darker in the shadows while revealing its inner purple under the lights.
PURPLE RISING JERSEYS
The shield features Midnight Purple and metallic gold accents to compliment the color scheme of the Purple Rising uniform collection.
Our number set has been updated to include a Midnight Purple stroke, while removing the drop shadow across all jerseys. The gold trim has also been replaced in our three primary jersey colors. Additionally, the typography has evolved to create a more consistent look among each numeral. These changes can be seen in the numbers on the front, back and shoulders.
DARKNESS HELMET
To be worn with our all-black uniforms when Darkness Falls at M&T Bank Stadium, this all-new matte-black helmet features black talon stripes and a two-toned front-facing Ravens logo, accentuating the red eyes also seen above the player tunnel at The Bank.
The Bank is a place of energy and excitement where fans gather in full force for Darkness games. The helmet’s design echoes this intensity, reflecting the team’s aura during night games.
PURPLE RISING HELMET
First introduced in 2024 and worn with the alternate purple uniform, the helmet features a metallic purple-painted shell with gold talon stripes and a gold face mask, and now includes the primary Ravens logo, allowing for interchangeability with additional uniform combinations.
1996
The Ravens took the field for their first home game in 1996 in purple jerseys, black pants and black helmets. Jerseys featured white numbers outlined in gold with a black collar and white nameplates, while the sleeves displayed a flying raven. Black pants had a white stripe with the Ravens shield on the right hip, and helmets bore the original team logo. The road uniform used the same pants and helmet but paired with a white jersey and purple-block numbers.
1997
The Ravens updated the font on the jersey numbers and added a black drop shadow. The home jersey was paired with white pants that had a black and purple stripe down the side. Black pants for road games now featured a purple stripe instead of a white stripe. The Ravens shield logo was moved to inside the stripe on the pants.
