Once Caldas’s badge shows a white shield with green and red vertical blocks, a dark-blue “OC” monogram in the centre, a gold star above the crest and four white stars across the lower blue band. The design combines the club initials with colours linked to Colombia and the club’s historic achievements.

The “OC” monogram stands for Once Caldas, the name created when Deportes Caldas and Once Deportivo merged in 1961. The white background connects with the club’s most famous identity: “El Blanco Blanco” of Manizales.

The green, white and red sections give the badge a distinctive tricolor look, while the blue lower band provides contrast and holds the stars. The large gold star above the badge is strongly associated with Once Caldas’s 2004 Copa Libertadores title, the club’s greatest international achievement.

Once Caldas is based in Manizales and traces part of its history through Deportes Caldas, Colombian champion in 1950. The current badge reflects that layered identity: the OC initials, the white tradition, the Colombian-style colours and the stars that mark one of the most successful regional clubs in Colombian football.
