Denver Broncos Authentic Speedflex 1975 - 1996

This is the look known simply as the Orange Crush, the royal blue shell carrying the snorting white horse breaking through an orange "D" that defined nearly thirty years of Denver football. The design first appeared in 1968 and held steady through 1996, with the facemask switching from gray to white in 1975, anchoring the Broncos through their original Super Bowl runs in the late 1970s and into the John Elway era. It's the helmet most associated with Denver's rise as an AFC power, worn through years of sellout crowds at altitude before the franchise's 1997 rebrand brought in the navy shell and modernized horse-head logo that ushered in back-to-back championships.
