The Pars have reimagined one of the most loved tops from the past for 2024/25.

Taking inspiration from the third kit from season 1998/99, the all black get-up has gold trim with the sleeve detail that cleverly gives a nod to the collar design from 26 years ago.

It was an instant hit online and Fifers officials are expecting the replicas will prove very popular with supporters young and old.

Fans certainly greeted the new garb positively on social media.
