Handsy Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Best kit for me was the tangerine but the all blue one that followed was good as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I've got to say the full blue strip at Fleetwood away was a beauty. It was less endearing at Barnsley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snookmeister Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 "This remains the definitive Oldham kit" Really? According to whom? Bollocks. The definitive kit, which most will associate us with more than any other, had to be the classic Bovis kit.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagger Lee Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I like this - and most variations of it, and the electric orange / tangerine is a great away kit. http://www.onevalefan.co.uk/site/2015/02/oldham-v-port-vale-1963/? But this is the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pukka Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) Too much white in that. Too much orange / tangerine in the other. Blue shirt, blue shorts, blue socks with Orange / Tangerine piping would be my choice. Edited February 6, 2015 by pukka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I like this - and most variations of it, and the electric orange / tangerine is a great away kit. But this is the best I've always felt that we should never have changed from this one. It was Latics and no one else. Now, it could be anyone. The mistake they made with the Ajax style was when they put red numbers on it. Other than that, perfect. By the way, I hated the tangerine/electric orange. It's all opinions though.

oafc1955 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 If memory serves me right I think we also had red numbers on the 60's 'definitive' kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesstlad Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I started watching the Latics in 1953 I was convinced we used to have a blue and white quartered shirt like Blackburn and Bristol rovers but perhaps my memory playing tricks on me does anyone else remember it if not I will surrender myself to the home for the bewildered.

Nah - never had a blue and white quartered shirt (Brizzle Rovers) or a halved shirt (B*****d Rovers). For me, a blue and white version of the current Ajax home strip would be sound.

LaticsChris Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I love the 'Ajax style' blue and white kit and I'd pair it with the, ahem, electric orange change strip. However I am but one man, and it seems there are many that for some reason many don't agree. Now it's not for me to call these people philistines, their opinions count just as much as those that do like these kits. They're wrong though.

palmer1 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 You know if you call it orange as opposed to tangerine I dont think it actually changes anything, they are Blackpools colours. Far to much white in the 1960's kit, we are known more for wearing blue and white, not white and blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewBlue Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 On what basis did the club 'nick' Blackpool's colours? Did someone see them and think they looked decent or was it just coincidence? If having the same colour kit is a crime then wearing blue would mean Latics are reoffending thieves... My favourite is the Lees beer barrel shirt or the Ajax style one of old, but I'd take anything over these nondescript ones of the last couple of years.

jorvik_latic Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 You know if you call it orange as opposed to tangerine I dont think it actually changes anything, they are Blackpools colours. I've never understood this argument. So we can't have a red away kit as that's Liverpool/Utd/Swindon etc(I wouldn't want red though just to contradict myself)? Can't have white as its Leeds/Spurs? Just because 1 team wears a certain colour, doesn't mean we can't wear it (apart from red of course). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand the argument either, I raised the point as many are saying they want a kit that makes you immediately thinks Oldham. Orange/tangerine? Who would think Oldham over Blackpool? I personally want all blue home and all red away and I couldn't give a toss if United,Liverpool, Aberdeen or Belgium U21s play in that strip as long as we have the Oldham badge on it!
