THE Pars have unveiled their new home kit - and it's a throwback back to one of the club's greatest triumphs.

With the 50th anniversary of Athletic's Scottish Cup triumph over Hearts taking place next year, the club have taken inspiration from that golden triumph for this season's strip.

Produced by kit manufacturers Joma Sport, the shirt has been modelled on that worn in that 1968 Hampden triumph, featuring candystripes and a round collar.

The black shorts and white socks - with a red and black band - are also designed upon those worn by the famous side captained by Roy Barry.

The kit, along with the away strip that was unveiled earlier this month, will go on sale at the club's open day at the Glen Pavilion on July 16.
