Our Top 10 Favorite Football Helmet Team Decals
When your crew’s hitting the field, the last thing any football player wants is for their team to look boring. So, if you’re determined to distinguish yourself from the rest of the competition—what can you do?
Wear great, eye-catching helmets and decals. Just by donning a flashy piece of protective gear, everyone from the kicker to the quarterback will stand out against the opposition and make their adoring fans proud.
However, sometimes it’s hard to find inspiration when it comes to designing the perfect look. To help jumpstart your creativity, take a look at our ten favorite football helmets and decals from the NFL, College Football and beyond.
Minnesota Vikings
Who wouldn’t want to hit the field while looking like a Norse God?
By using two simple decals, the Minnesota Vikings have created one of the most iconic football helmets in NFL history. In this version, the helmet’s style has been amplified thanks to the use of metal flecks added into the purple paint. We’re pretty sure even Thor would cover up his mane to wear this great gear. SKOL!
Louisiana State University Tigers
We could never get sick of LSU’s classic football helmet.
This SEC legend hits the stadium with an appearance that works as well today as it did fifty years ago. The retro tiger and font decals hint back towards this institution's proud history. That way, when Saturday rolls around, LSU’s opponents will know this team has a past they’ll have to reckon with.
Southern Methodist University Mustangs
This gorgeous helmet and logo was created specifically to honor the First Responders of the Dallas-Ft. Worth area.
By combining the iconic DFW skyline with SMU’s mustang logo, this unique decal shows without question which city the school—and their local heroes—represent.
University of Florida Gators
If you see orange and blue, you know you’re in Gator Country.
The Florida football program’s truly one with a storied history. So, it’s little surprise that they’ve chosen to stick with a traditional-looking script decal. But even without the image of a toothy reptilian staring them down, no rival will doubt which three-time National Championship-winning team they’re dealing with.
East Carolina University Pirates
With beautiful metallic sparkles embedded into the royal purple paint, this fantastic helmet design also displays an intimidating decal that’ll shiver the timbers off of any opponent.
The clear background of the pirate skull sticker also demonstrates a great way to play with color combination options.
San Diego State Aztecs
How cool is this incredibly detailed red, metallic helmet design? Let’s be honest—this concept could’ve easily ended up tacky in the wrong artist’s hands. Instead, it’s a one-of-a-kind art piece.
By integrating the Aztec calendar into San Diego State University’s 2016 football helmets, this stunning piece of headgear gives a nod to their mascot—and looks like nothing else out there.
Boise State Broncos
Boise State has a treasure trove of fantastic helmets—but we think this one might be our favorite.
By perfectly matching the background color, the blue, bucking bronco artfully blends into the helmet. As the bronco decal itself is so large, this technique ingeniously allows for the steed to encompass large amounts of the surface without appearing too gaudy or distracting.
Amarillo Venom
When the Amarillo Venom started in the Intense Football League—one of America’s earliest indoor leagues—they were originally called the Dusters. Then, after winning the league championship, they figured they needed to rebrand with something a little more, well, intense. That’s when they rebranded into the Venom.
The Venom logo is one of the most intimidating you’ll find, especially if you have a fear of snakes. The decal itself seems to pop right off the helmet and appears to strike for blood at the opposing team.
Los Angeles Rams
Though they take a similar design approach to the Minnesota Vikings, the L.A. Rams have simplified their decal even further. Rather than use a cartoony image like the Vikings, this 2018 NFC Champion applies solid gold horns that elegantly curve around the players head.
Now honestly, what opponent wouldn’t think twice before running headfirst into a pack of golden-horned Rams?
Miami Dolphins
We absolutely love this modern update of the classic Miami Dolphins logo and decal design.
With bright, fun colors that perfectly evokes the vibe of Miami, this slick, turquoise and orange helmet might not scare away the other team—but it’ll prove that these players can turn the volume of their look all the way up to eleven.
