Orange socks

[degsy]

As Eggs says, it was Amber not Orange. It was a little tweak when a kit clash occurred, rather than change the whole kit. Why we haven’t returned to this traditional change kit of amber shirts, blue shorts and amber socks? But then again, I’m still fuming about us not wearing blue socks with white topsfor our regular kit. See 1966 cup final (our greatest ever line up btw)

I think he means - "I’m still fuming about us not wearing blue socks with white tops for our regular kit - like the 1966 cup final when we did wear blue socks."

That's my take on it, but I could be wrong.

Aah right
These sock threads are always a minefield for the unwary.

Anyway, man and boy, I've always been firmly in the Bluesocks with White tops camp

I love these socks, we should use black / navy more imo

Like with this one, I genuinely believe this was our last good kit:

Then there is the blue jerseys, blue shorts & white socks kit

Personally, I prefer white shorts & blue socks with a white turnover on the socks.

Blue socks should be in the home kit permanently.

And yes, this has been an issue for me for years. Blue socks are far superior to white socks.

If we can't win anything at least we can look good. Better than nothing.

About time there was a best sock award in the EPL, mind you we'd almost certainly go for -

And if you know your hosiery...you'd know they're amber.

I absolutely love this! I thought from the picture they were orange as well, but maybe that was because op poisoned my mind.

Oranges are not the only socks.

I've spent the last few days looking for a sock supplier. Grand Old Team socks. Coming to a website near you soon.

We'll all be able to send eachother feet pics.

Why did we play with them, and when did we stop?

Is this one for the Moan thread? Gimme orange socks all day long if it means players like Bally are wearing them. But are they even orange?! Are they in fact burnt whatever-shade-the-sash-on-the-away-shirt was? Are they amber?! #MoshOut.
