Indianapolis Colts fans can acquire the new Anvil Strike collection, featuring player jerseys, customizable jerseys, helmets, sideline apparel, and headwear, starting September 1. This launch precedes the team’s September 27 game against the AFC South rival Houston at Lucas Oil Stadium, where the Anvil Strike uniform will make its on-field debut.

The collection is part of the NFL x Nike Rivalries initiative, which began in 2025 to celebrate divisional rivalries and team community pride. The Anvil Strike uniform, inspired by the strength and resilience of an anvil, is designed to be worn once each season through 2028 as part of the Colts’ divisional game tradition.

Key elements of the Anvil Strike uniform include a metallic blue helmet with a high-shine finish, an anvil steel jersey in dark anthracite, and enhanced shoulder-pad stripes with horseshoe-inspired grommets. Reflective accents are incorporated to capture the appearance of sparks and motion. For the first time in team history, a silver horseshoe will be integrated into the jersey design. The uniform also features classic numbers, the rallying cry For The Shoe inside the collar, and an INDY wordmark on the front of the helmet, honoring the city’s growth.

The collection offers Nike Rivalries player game jerseys for men, women, and youth, customizable Nike Rivalries game jerseys, Nike Rivalries sideline apparel, New Era headwear, Riddell collectible and authentic helmets, and Nike Rivalries Air Max 90 sneakers. Single game tickets for the September 27 game are available.
