Falkirk F.C. - Colours and Badge

Colours and Badge

Falkirk's traditional colours are navy blue and white, which the team first wore during the 1882 season. However, the club's first strip, thin blue and white horizontal hoops on the jersey and socks, was worn between 1876 and 1880. This was replaced with a blue jersey and white shorts, which has featured predominantly since. Touches of red were introduced to the strip in the late 1930s – mostly on the socks – was worn until the early 1960s, re-introduced in the mid-1970s and has since been featured in the team's kit. For the 2012–13 season the kit consists of a navy blue jersey, white shorts and red socks.

Falkirk's current crest is a stylised version of the Falkirk Steeple, a dominant landmark of the town. During the 2007–08 season the club used a crest – known as "The Highlander" – that was worn during the club's 1957 Scottish Cup win as a 50th anniversary tribute the players. Kit manufacturer Umbro supplied the club's kit for the 1977–78 season. Other kits have been supplied by Bukta, Patrick and Le Coq Sportif. As of September 2012, the current supplier since 2008 is Puma and the club's shirt sponsor is Central Demolition. Clark Eriksson, a Falkirk-based engineering consultancy firm, sponsors the back of the 2012–13 season's shirts. Recent sponsors include Budweiser Budvar, John R Weir Mercedes Group and Beazer Homes.
