Does anyone know the actual colours of the is rare Orient away kit?

white shirt blue stripe .
Reverse of the home kit when Webby was here isnt it .

Thank you. Never seen the kit you mention

I think that’s Paul Went on the right, but i maybe wrong, and it looks like Maine Road.
Never seen this kit before.

The Blue with white sash is listed as 1965
so i assume it was white with blue sash .

im pretty sure there is an old colour picture posted
somewhere which showed it .
maybe on Fantsatico or Orient in the 70s pages on FB .
Although it could have been a comment made by someone
about this or similar photo .

Vic rouse in goal and his shirt was green

Looking at that historical kit website it's strange how in 1965 we only kept the blue with white stripe from August to Dec then dropping the stripe from Dec until the rest of the season . Why did we drop the stripe halfway through that season ? Anyway my favourite all time Orient kit is definitely the Addis's braces kit from the 80-81 season.

great performance and after they all went out on the sash !

Let's face it our last decent kit was 22 years ago 1999-2000. What a great kit to welcome in the new millennium. Little did we know at the time how dull the next 21 years were going to be kit wise....

Thats your opinion, not mine. Several of our kits this century have been good. The near promotion kit in 2014 was smashing, the away one of the same season was also a good one, i love our present all red kit, and i love the away bright yellow one too.
The days of flashy many coloured patterned psychedelic kits are long gone, thank goodness

Wasn't too keen on the yellow at Rochdale, but why weren't we wearing our normal red?

I was there, look closely and I am standing just in front of the 65 inch tele at the back, with a woodbine !

We lost 5 = 0.

All bland, boring and samey in my opinion. Some of the away kits have been better I agree.
