Leyton Orient 07/08 Shirt
Returning to a style of shirt associated with one of the high points in modern history for Leyton Orient, the new home shirt features a braces design. The white sections on the front of the shirt, against the main red background are to be reminiscent of braces holding up a pair of trousers.
O’s Braces Style Home Kit
The problem with this look on the 07/08 Orient home shirt is that sponsors PartyPoker’s logo pushes those white vertical sections out wider than perhaps they should go and the shirt looks more like it has white panels down the side of it.

The new Orient kit will be available for fans to buy in time for the start of 2007/08 pre-season. The O’s braces design made a comeback two years ago when it appeared on the away kit and after listening to fans feedback the idea was put onto next season home shirts for the Coca-Cola Football League One campaign.
Chris Pope, Club Commercial manager said:
“It was extremely apparent through our consultation with supporters that the braces are a firm favourite. The new home strip encompasses the braces style which proved extremely popular when the white kit returned. The design process meant we were searching for a modern advance on this and I hope we have achieved that.
“Ultimately we needed a kit that would provide the O’s with an identity to set us apart from the rest, be comfortable for the players to perform in and also prove to be a commercial success.”
well i think the kit is very nice i especially like the collar but it might be a problem for the obese supporters. all those double chins getting caught up on it.
well i like it; i especially like the collar
The badge is swallowed up in the red mass and you can barely see it. But other than that a nice shirt. The shorts don’t really look like they belong to the shirt though, should have more white on them.
