Proper Dark Blue top and on a superb player for the Dee's.

Proper traditional Dundee, Hibs and Celtic kits and for some reason I always liked that Motherwell kit.

Has Celtic's strips even really changed that much over the years (expect for their away or third strips), always is their green and white hoops?

Red in our strip started really in the 70's, 80's and it was added in some way in the 90's. However, historically, red was never really used and we always wore a dark blue and white strip. I, like many others my age, associate us with Blue, white and red in our strip due to growing up in the 70's.

The red is actually a nod to our Our Boys connection.

Normally when redoing the forum theme, I will either add Red or Light blue because it gives the site a third colour to play with, as I know a lot of younger fans don't like the red in our strips and that's understandable.

Personally, I think we could do less of the neon blue and just a straight dark blue and white from now on.

The green and white format has remained standard but they've played with width, bands down the sides, collars and general design enhancements that just never look as good as the classic - vee neck's long gone too.

I must admit, I just see the green and white hoops and that's about it. It's their pretty bx standard kit.

Right classic Dundee kit here!

Love the navy and white Dundee strip, it's a classic 

Not a fan of roadworker orange, green and white horizontal stripes or the burgundy and yellow thing with the sash, but I'm sure fans of these clubs will love their old strips as much as I love the Dundee strip.

ETA good to see proper football jerseys without sponsors on them.

I believe we wore red and white socks occasionally in late 40s and throughout the 50s but agree that it became a regular from the late 60s when we had a white hoop and a red hoop on our blue socks. Personally I prefer our home kit to be blue and white only but not adverse to a bit of red or light blue on the change kit.
