Burnley’s Shirt Colours History
The club wore the blue & white striped shirts for the last time in 1891, when they changed to all blue, this was not popular though and they changed again to claret & amber stripes for the 1891/92 season. More changes followed over subsequent seasons including red, pink and white stripes, even green shirts. It was in 1910 that Burnley settled on the shirts that they wear till this day of claret and blue.
