Umbro's diamond logo appeared on the shirt and shorts, the first time a kit supplier motif had featured on an Oxford United shirt.

Shirts now featured an open v-neck instead of the classic Umbro triangle-shaped insert seen in the previous two seasons.
We also saw the first hints of the now-familiar Yellow & Blue colours, with blue featuring on the club crest. Additionally, the match-day programme cover prominently featured blue, highlighting the evolving identity of the club.
An all-white change strip was identical styling as the home shirts.
