The Las Vegas Raiders want fans to help pick their next piece of team gear. The team unveiled eight finalist apparel designs created by local student designers that blend Silver and Black branding with Día de Muertos traditions, and public voting is open now through Nov. 20, 2026.
Key Takeaways
- Eight finalist designs from local student designers were revealed Friday, Nov. 6, at a showcase at Springs Preserve.
- The program is a partnership between the Raiders, Trade & Fashion Academy Las Vegas and NFL Mexico.
- Anyone can vote for a favorite through Nov. 20 at Raiders.com/silverandblackcollective.
- The winner gets to work with the Raiders Image team on a limited-edition collection set to launch nationwide in fall 2027.
- All proceeds will benefit the Raiders Foundation.
A holographic runway at Springs Preserve
Instead of a traditional runway, each finalist’s design was presented in an immersive 3D holographic display during Friday’s showcase at Springs Preserve, according to News 3 (KSNV). The concepts take the look of Day of the Dead, the holiday that honors loved ones who have passed, and work it into Raiders apparel.
The students come from Trade & Fashion Academy Las Vegas, and NFL Mexico joined the Raiders as a partner on the project.
How to vote
Fans can view the eight finalists and cast a vote at Raiders.com/silverandblackcollective. Voting closes Nov. 20. The reports so far do not list a cash prize; the reward is the chance to help design a real Raiders product line with the team’s Image staff.
What it means for locals and visitors
For local fans, it is a free, quick way to put a Las Vegas student’s work on Raiders gear sold across the country. For young designers, it is a rare real-world credit with an NFL team. Visitors in town for a game at Allegiant Stadium can vote from their phones too. Watch for the winner’s limited-edition Silver & Black collection when it drops in fall 2027, with the money going to the Raiders Foundation.
