It will be one of the Prem/Champ templates from 2 or 3 seasons ago, and then colours applied based on their catalogue/stock i would think.
Thanks Berniman |

In his defence, it was a previous fuckwit that made Gold one of the primary colours on our logo.
Turns out it’s a Red, White, Gold home kit - not a gold kit. |

Whilst Gold isn’t really a traditional Swindon colour - I our kits with a tertiary colour.
Red & white are such generic colours…

Red white and gold might be ok for a change. Its not like its yellow. Didn't we have a load of black on one of the kits a few years ago?

Yeah when the re-did the swirl pattern. Was a nice kit & the black trim at least made it look a bit different from Middlesbrough or Bristol City. Personally would have much rather the trim was green - which despite not being on the current badge I still think of as our tertiary colour after red & white. Again, that green (for me anyway) is what at least sets us apart from the plethora or teams with just red & white kits. |

This where you need a Reg. I am sure Green is in our history, but the more recent usage in the kit coincided with Ricky Hunt and Castrol being involved in the early 90's. The away kit was still a thing of beauty though.

Depends when Castrol came on board. Obviously they became our shirt sponsor in ‘95 but we’d had the half green diamond badge since ‘91. |

It was weird how the DGI kits had a blue trim on them. Originally did think it was green when saw it before I saw in person.

Looked stupid that one. Was bright green and didn't fit.
It looked like somebody wiped their nose on the sleeves |

I definitely remember the green cord around the arm being a '92ish addition. |
