Kit or Miss: Reviewing Palace's standout shirt from 97/98

In every matchday programme, we review some of the best - and worst - Crystal Palace kits ever produced.

As the Club Shop launches its huge kit sale, look back to one of the most eye-catching strips in history: 1997/98 away.

What a season. If points were awarded for sartorial brilliance in ’98, Crystal Palace could have finished at least second bottom, if not third.

Mirroring the iconic home strip between ’96-98 (see programme v Liverpool), the 97/98 away kit was a design for the ages – the insanity of adidas’ late ‘90s design team blended with Palace’s inherently bold style and that oh so handsome shield.
