W6er Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 I have been thinking about next season's strip, and came across last year's thread. Does anybody know whether a decision has already been made, or whether there will be a vote on it this year? http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Scottish_Football_League/St_Mirren/St_Mirren.htm I like the strips from 1966-69, and even wondered whether the colours could be reversed, so that we have a mostly black shirt with thin white vertical stripes.

Doakes Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 One like this would be ideal, black and white stripes, white shorts, red socks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that not the Barlinnie first teams home strip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My retro strip from a deal The Sun offered quite a few years ago will do me fine. @TopCat also got one, although his doubled as a tent for Billy Smarts circus.😉 Couldn't care less, thanks for asking. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W6er Posted March 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 What we could do is just copy Juventus' kit, and just change the badge, sponsor and any third colour to red. Italians know more about fashion than us Scots... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul torfason Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hopefully not the 5 fashion police dudes from last year that agreed on partick thistle strip from previous year that they got relegated in:all they did was take template and change colours:absolutely lazy and terrible decision: how hard is it to give us a traditional buds strip with black and white stripes on front and back and red away strip:not rocket science Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
