Tyrant Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Giving this a wee bump as there's a nice wee selection of kits available from the 90s here: http://www.vintagefootballshirts.com/teams/other-scottish-clubs/38?sort=&page=1 £40 for the infamous Northsound away kit. Bargain. I was hoping for one of the adidas kits from the early 80s but appreciate that they'll be harder to get. Anyone else know of decent (and trustworthy) sites for buying retro tops? I also found: https://www.classicfootballshirts.co.uk/other-uk-clubs/scottish-clubs/aberdeen.html Does anyone still have a 90s top? I take it they fit looser than modern shirts?

WeegieRed Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 At the cup game at Tynecastle I noticed a guy wearing one of the old Aberdeen JVC strips, and was impressed by how well he's kept it in condition as it looked brand new. Then a few minutes later I looked along the stand and saw another person wearing it, and again realised it looked brand new. Thought that was odd as you'd expect the sponsor at least to be cracked or faded after 25 years. Then noticed it didn't have the squares on it, you know the different shades of red it had. So, can only conclude that someone has just had a version of that strip made and are flogging them. Would love to know where to buy them (wish I'd bumped into either of the two guys again to ask at the time). There are also retro Aberdeen bucket hats on sale on eBay. Would look great if they made a revival again. Just a shame there's no Hampden this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Was it this one Weegie Red? https://shop.afc.co.uk/Product/ProductItem?id=315-2600-A00001-S Club launched it before Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the one! I didn't realise it was official merchandise. Will definitely be buying that. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotfree Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 The AFC retro tops can be a bit tight for their size. If you can get into the shop to try one on, I would. If not, maybe look at getting It one size up. And no, I'm not a fat bastard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scunnered999 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Did we change to all red in '66 because the previous strips were too much like the England '66 world cup one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madbadteacher Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I though it was because Eddie Turnbull wanted us to look more like Liverpool (of course my memory may be playing tricks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
