This white round-necked long-sleeved shirt, made by Bukta, was first coupled with navy blue shorts and white socks, which had a red and a blue hoop across the tops, sometimes hidden from view (as in the picture right). Then, at the beginning of the 1964-65 season, the hoops were permanently removed, as the socks became plain white.

It was introduced for the F.A.'s Centenary match, but it was briefly replaced by its predecessor (the v-neck version) at the end of the season, before returning for the 1964-65 season and then phased out before the World Cup.

The shirt pictured above was worn by Gordon Milne in 1964 and is part of Richard Clarke's 'Three Lions - England Match Worn Shirts' Facebook Collection.
