The jersey designed by Kappa has a simple look, without 'useless' details, that immediately bring us to the past. No inserts on sleeves and collar and the brand's white logo is barely discernible. Leeds' crest is the only element that stands out against the total white look of the kit: a golden logo (instead of the typical yellow and blue) which is similiar to the current one. The lace-up collar and the Yorkshire Rose - tone on tone on the front - represent a clear connection with the past and with the origins of the club (the heraldic rose is the symbol of the House of York). For this special occasion the 32 Red sponsor is white and it's been reduced in a little badge under the Kappa logo.
