What colour shorts n socks will be set out for the 2nd strip?
Home shorts are white, 3rd shorts are black.
I'm thinking away shorts might be emerald green.

Emerald green shorts and socks with the 3rd strip?
Oh I'm quite excited now!!
Sorry SMG I meant away strip. (Told you I was over excited!!).Away kit possibly, 3rd kit has black shorts to match the shirt.
I think they might have been officially revealed, but not officially launched yet. It should be a few days after the videos and photos of the players wearing the full away kit (including the secret shorts and socks) I would have thought.Do we have a date yet for when the away kits will be on sale?
It was released in 1995 but there was no Pasoti back then so I have no recollection of how it was received by fans. It was of its time, though. It was quite trendy back then to chuck a few arty graphics onto football shirts - the 90s wasn't a very subtle decade.For those who were about in 1996, when argyle released the original shirt was it popular and did it go down well with the fans at the time? Was it in reference to anything or was it a bit random/surprising when released then?

All I can remember about that summer is a great deal of excitement because, even though we'd been relegated to the bottom division for the first time ever, Neil Warnock had arrived and spent a load of money on the likes of Adrian Littlejohn, Paul Williams and Ronnie Mauge. Our first game of the season away to Colchester was billed as a David versus Goliath contest, such was our status as big-spending heavyweights.
I think the kit was a bit overshadowed by all that. All I can remember about it is that the Football League wouldn't let us wear it for the Wembley final because it had too much white in it and would clash with Darlington's kit. Argyle somehow got a quick re-design sorted and a new version of the kit was produced that had a couple of extra black stripes covering some of the white bits.
After the final, Dan McCauley ordered the squad to hand in their shirts so he could put them in some kind of Argyle museum he wanted to set up. Many players refused and I remember it getting quite ugly.
Those shirts would probably be worth a few quid now as they were only ever worn for one match (at Wembley, no less) and only a few would have been made.
Maybe, but it would have been very different to what it is today and used by hardly anyone.Objection, your honour, Pasoti was alive and kicking in 1995. Not sure if Dave or anyone kept the old mailing list files, though. It would be very interesting to troll through some of the early stuff.
The only major clash of kits will be away at FGR and at a guess i reckon Argyle will wear the away shirt with white shorts and white socks - a one off. Or perhaps FGR will change there hideous lime green kit to the even more hideous luminous pink kit.
Other than that the new kits are all spot on and id gladly take them for the next 2 seasons rather than just the 1. Thoughts??
