Football League Branding
There were no changes to the football league branding.
Home Kit & Away Variations
Long
sleeves
New crew-neck shirts replaced the shimmering metallic designs of the previous three seasons, bringing a more understated look. These designs closely resembled the navy shirts introduced the year before.
The navy shorts also underwent a subtle change, with the piping detail now starting behind the hip and moving towards the front further down the leg.
Oxford's traditional all-yellow away combination was never used. The reason lay in the colour mismatch between the new yellow shirts and the metallic yellow shorts from prior seasons.
Away Kit & Variations
Long
sleeves
The same navy change colours from the previous season featured, albeit far less frequently.
There was also a new design of white socks, in the same style as the navy socks. The yellow socks remained the same as used during the previous two seasons.
Goalkeeper Kits
At the start of the season, Oxford United's goalkeepers wore jerseys from the previous two seasons. However, in September, new green and copper shirts were introduced. Despite the introduction of these new jerseys, the older style, which featured a distinctive black chest band, occasionally reappeared for odd matches.
