    It's a retro kit from 1978. Quite like it really but I'm old enough for nostalgia to really set in :cool:

    They've worn kits of that ilk at Oakwell many times over the years. I think it's a belter.

    That's what I thought... A nice idea to have a kit from Regis era after his death!!! It's before my time but he meant a lot to the supporters of WBA from what happened after he passed.

    I wonder if at some time in the near future, we may see the reappearance of the stars of the 'Shaw Carpets' strip.

    I still don't see the point in wearing it though against a team in red n white, they should have been in their traditional white n navy stripes.

    Have to say that's a great kit & evocative of their best team, as mentioned earlier by @ReadingRed

    The old school WBA lettering is particularly tremendous IMHO.

    As others have said it's retro and goes back to a bygone era that many of us remember fondly. I can still see the great Cyrille Regis wearing this. I really like it.
