Derek McInnes insisted on the black bits in acknowledgment of the negative thoughts of some supporters (myself included) :p

Yes you are correct,the away kits back then were smart too.

We had black socks from 1904 to 1940
39/40 our first red strip, had black socks also
I think its shocking that some dons fans dont know the history enough about the kits. Not so much on here, but some of the comments on Twitter on the official AFC post are pathetic.
They did a great job of merging those 2 classic kits...my only gripe being the silk hoops on the 84 were very unique, while this just looks like it it isnt actually silk.
84 is my favourite dons kit ever.
I hope the away is white version of this.
I'd rather it was like the mock kit on the other thread
