===Uniforms=== ====1993β2006==== [[File:Anaheimhome1993-2004.jpg|thumb|230px|The original Mighty Ducks of Anaheim white jersey from 1993 to 2006.]] The Mighty Ducks' original road (later home) jersey features an eggplant and jade base, divided by silver, purple and white diagonal stripes. The home (later road) jersey has a white and jade base, divided by purple, white and silver diagonal stripes. For most of its history, purple pants were used with this set; from 1993 to 1997, and from 1999 to 2003, the pants featured jade and white stripes. In 1996, an alternate front-facing "angry duck mask" logo is added on the shoulders.<ref name=DucksUniforms>{{cite web|url=https://www.nhl.com/ducks/team/the-ducks-look |title=The Ducks' Look |publisher=National Hockey League |access-date=February 23, 2022}}</ref> In 1995, as part of the NHL's third jersey program, the Mighty Ducks wore alternate "Wild Wing" jerseys, featuring the current mascot breaking out of a sheet of ice amid a jade base and purple trim. The primary logo appears on both shoulders. Even though the Mighty Ducks won two of three games with this uniform, it was immediately retired.<ref name=DucksUniforms/> From 1997 to 1999, the Mighty Ducks wore two alternate jerseys. The road alternate has a jade base with purple, jade and silver stripes along the chest and sleeves, and the home alternate has a white base with jade, purple and silver stripes along the chest and sleeves. During this period, the Mighty Ducks switched to black pants and helmets, but in 1999, returned to wearing purple pants and helmets while retiring the road alternate jerseys.<ref name=DucksUniforms/> In 2003, the Mighty Ducks released a black alternate jersey with purple and silver trim. This design features the full team name written in a classic script style, and the interlocking "MD" on both shoulders.<ref name=DucksUniforms/> ====2006β2014==== [[File:Anaheim Ducks.svg|thumb|230px|The duck foot logo has been in use as either a primary or secondary logo since 2006.]] After rebranding as the Anaheim Ducks, the uniforms became black and white with metallic gold and orange stripes. The crest featured the full team name in front. This set was worn until the 2013β14 season, with a few adjustments after [[Reebok]] moved to the Edge template in 2007.<ref name=DucksUniforms/> In 2010, the Ducks unveiled a black alternate jersey, featuring the "webbed D" as the main crest and thick orange stripes. The original Mighty Ducks logo, this time recolored to the current scheme and placed inside a white oval with the full team name, was placed on the shoulders.<ref name=DucksUniforms/> For their Stadium Series game on January 25, 2014, the Ducks created a special jersey. This jersey is primarily orange with black lettering and numbers. The chromed Ducks logo, designed for the Stadium Series, is on the chest. There are gold, black and white stripes on the sleeves as well as black trim around the bottom and sleeves. The jersey has old fashion black lace on the neck and also has a unique "OC" logo on the left shoulder to represent Orange County where the Ducks are from.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ducks.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=694168 |title=Ducks Unveil 2014 Coors Light Stadium Seriesβ’ Jersey for Dodger Stadium Contest on Jan. 25 vs. Kings β Anaheim Ducks |publisher=National Hockey League |access-date=May 1, 2014}}</ref> ====2014β2024==== In 2014, the "webbed D" alternate became the primary jersey, and a corresponding white jersey was also unveiled. The letters, previously with a gold accent, now featured orange accents. This set was later tweaked in 2017 after [[Adidas]] became the NHL's uniform provider.<ref name=DucksUniforms/> In 2015, an orange third jersey was unveiled, with the modified Mighty Ducks crest in front. The "webbed D" was moved to the shoulders. This set is used until 2017, and was brought back in a modern Adidas template starting in 2019.<ref name=DucksUniforms/> The Ducks announced for their 25th anniversary season of 2018β19 the adoption of a new third jersey, featuring the original Mighty Ducks logo, striping pattern, and purple and jade colors. While it had the elements of the original jersey, it kept the modern-day aspects of the Ducks identity such as the "webbed D" on the shoulders, black base and current lettering.<ref>{{cite news|title=Ducks reveal quacktastic third jersey for home opener|url=https://www.nhl.com/news/anaheim-ducks-reveal-25th-anniversary-home-opener-third-jersey/c-299549712 |publisher=National Hockey League |date=July 21, 2018|access-date=July 21, 2018}}</ref> The uniform was only used for that particular season, after which the Ducks returned to the orange thirds last used from 2015 to 2017. For the 2020β21 season, Adidas released a special alternate uniform called the "Reverse Retro" series, which were alternate color versions of [[throwback uniform]] designs. The Ducks' version was a white rendition of their 1995β96 Wild Wing alternates.<ref>{{cite news|title=adidas and NHL Unveil 'Reverse Retro' Alternate Jerseys for All 31 Clubs|url=https://www.nhl.com/ducks/news/adidas-and-nhl-unveil-reverse-retro-alternate-jerseys-for-all-31-clubs/c-319632026|publisher=Anaheim Ducks |via=NHL.com |date=November 16, 2020|access-date=December 2, 2020}}</ref> A second "Reverse Retro" uniform was unveiled in the 2022β23 season, this time with the 1993β2006 white uniform recolored to the current orange, black and gold colors.<ref>{{cite news|title=NHL Reverse Retro jerseys for all 32 teams unveiled by adidas|url=https://www.nhl.com/news/2022-adidas-nhl-reverse-retro-jerseys-reveal/c-336511528|publisher=National Hockey League |last=Merola |first=Lauren |date=October 20, 2022|access-date=October 20, 2022}}</ref> The Ducks unveiled a 30th-anniversary alternate uniform for the 2023β24 season. The design brought back the purple and jade look the team originally sported from 1993 to 2006, and debuted a new version of the "Wild Wing" mask logo inside a jade circle with the "Anaheim Ducks" name and current logo.<ref>{{cite news|title=Ducks Unveil 30th Anniversary Jersey for 2023-24 Season|url=https://www.nhl.com/ducks/news/ducks-unveil-30th-anniversary-jersey-for-2023-24-season/c-345074764|publisher=Anaheim Ducks |via=NHL.com|date=June 28, 2023|access-date=June 29, 2023}}</ref> ====2024βpresent==== [[File:Anaheim Ducks 2024-25 Wordmark Dark.svg|thumb|250px|The current wordmark for the Anaheim Ducks.]] Beginning on June 14, 2024, the Anaheim Ducks' social media accounts posted various teases of a new logo, which is said to be a modernized take on their original "Mighty Ducks" logo.<ref>{{Cite tweet |author=Anaheim Ducks |user=AnaheimDucks |date=June 17, 2024 |title=π |url=https://x.com/AnaheimDucks/status/1802747795134439656 |number=1802747795134439656 |access-date=August 16, 2024}}</ref> On June 24, the Ducks fully unveiled their new logo and their new [[Fanatics, Inc.|Fanatics]]-produced jerseys. The home jersey is fully orange with black, gold, and white striping on the bottom and sleeves of the jersey, while the away jersey is white with orange shoulders and the same colored stripes as the home jersey. Both jerseys feature a revised version of the Duck foot logo of 2006β2024 on the shoulders.<ref>{{cite news|title=Ducks Unveil Brand Evolution with New Logo and Jerseys|url=https://www.nhl.com/ducks/news/ducks-unveil-brand-evolution-with-new-logo-and-jerseys|publisher=Anaheim Ducks |via=NHL.com|date=June 26, 2024|access-date=June 26, 2024}}</ref> ====Colors and logos==== The team's colors were eggplant and jade until the change of ownership in 2006. At this point, they became orange, black and gold, with white in place of black for the away jersey. The only exception is the alternate jersey, which is mostly orange. Orange, which has become one of the team's primary colors, is in reference to [[Orange County, California|Orange County]], where Anaheim is located.<ref name=LV>{{cite news|last=Marrazza|first=Dan|title=How NHL Teams Got Their Names|url=https://www.nhl.com/goldenknights/news/nhl-teams-getting-their-names/c-283742854|publisher=Vegas Golden Knights |via=NHL.com |date=June 14, 2016|access-date=May 4, 2018|quote=Founded in 1993, the then-called Mighty Ducks of Anaheim were directly named for The Mighty Ducks movies. And until 2005, the NHL team and the movie Mighty Ducks shared a logo and colors, too. When Disney, which produced the movies and owned the NHL team, sold the team in 2005, the name was shortened to "Anaheim Ducks." Orange, which has become one of the team's primary colors, is in reference to Orange County, where Anaheim is located.}}</ref> The original Mighty Ducks logo featured an old-style [[goaltender mask]], shaped to form the appearance of a duck bill. Behind the mask are two intersecting hockey sticks, a black hockey puck, and a triangle; the color of the triangle was either green or gray, depending on how the logo is used. This is now used on a shoulder patch of the current uniforms, with the triangle in orange.<ref name=orangelogo/> Upon renaming, the Ducks' logo changed into a webbed foot forming a "D".<ref name=newlogo/> The text itself is gold (which sometimes may appear as bronze as well) with orange and black accents (forming a [[Three-dimensional space|three-dimensional]] appearance). The entire logo is in turn outlined by silver. This is shortened from a prior version that spelled out the word "Ducks" in all capital letters. The current logo of the Ducks is similar to that of the one used in 1993β2006. The current version has orange hockey sticks which are flat and more curved than that of the original. The triangle is gold and does not change depending on the jersey it is on. The shading of the mask is no longer grey, but gold. The new mask now features an orange eye and a gold eyebrow. The sticks of the logo still retains the "W" tape, and when shown together shows WW as a nod to the mascot Wild Wing. A revised duck foot, dropping the orange stripe, grey and white outlines is featured as a secondary logo on the shoulders.<ref name=orangelogo>{{Cite web |title=Fans {{!}} Anaheim Ducks |url=https://www.nhl.com/ducks/fans/orange-country |access-date=August 16, 2024 |publisher=Anaheim Ducks |via=NHL.com}}</ref>
