- Description
- Home kit for Shakhtar, this is in Orange and Black, the colours adopted in 1961 and with black sleeves, the colour scheme the club wore when they won the Soviet cup for the first time. Donetsk is known as "The City of a Thousand Roses", and their is a print of a rose pattern in a lighter shade of orange than the main jersey body on the front and back of the shirt, and in white as the insert underneath the collar. The pattern is also on the orange inserts on the shorts. This kit almost certainly has a thousand roses on it, and probably more. Around the crest there is a blue edging, a nod to the flag of Donetsk and the colours of the flag of Donetsk are on the inside of the shirt as well. Please click on the picture to see in full detail.
