Think the brightness of the orange would help when playing in the mirky afternoons or under poor floodlights. Be great if we could play like the Dutch national team of Cruyff & Co.

Last time I went with Darlington it poured all day and the funfair was shut.

The club crest on the orange shirt looks like an iron on, or is it just for display purposes

The orange shirt is just a graphic rather than an actual shirt like the burgundy one. The actual shirt will be embroidered. Still undecided whether the badge will be the usual full colour as used on the home shirt or whether the colours will be adjusted to complement the shirt

Definitely a Dutch theme going on here. Shirt no.1 is reminiscent of Netherlands' Euro winning 88 shirt in the second semi-final

I actually really like the simple black outline

The green shirt in the second semi final looks really smart. The other one looks poor.

To be fair that mint green one is nice.

The black and neon one is horrendous. Easily the worst of the 4.

Mint green all the way. Definitely the best of the remaining three.

Alright, I take it back. Option 3, the mint green number, is an absolute cracker!

Day one purchase if it wins.

Haha I still like the orange but agree mint green is nice!

The yellow and black would be nice if the yellow of the shirt was more like the yellow of the badge.

I'd be happy with either Mint or Orange. Mint is a nice throw back to that kit we have late 90s.

Well I am happy with any of the remaining three.
All reminiscent of past big name shirts - Netherlands, Germany and Dortmund.

If the mint green one wins - will there be a Polo neck version ?

The mint green shirt reminds me of West Germany's 'away' kit at Italia '90. Erstklassig 8-)

With the exception of the claret choice they all look like highlighters. Of the 3 remaining orange is the best of a bad bunch.

Well it's down to Orange or Green, has to be Green for me. I'll buy the Green one, but not the Orange one.

This is tough. Whichever wins will I think be one of my favourite Darlo kits.

Can we have both?

Put a black trim on the orange one and that might have swayed it, as it is it's the green one for me.

Be more than happy to see the runner up used as next years away kit, would definitely buy both.

Waited for an orange one for years, it’s bang on.

Sticking with that vote for me.

If we are going to play like the Dutch side of the 70’s and 80’s, we might as well play in their colours. We are getting Tangoed.

That is a hard decision, liked both of them and would also be willing to buy both. Went for orange in the end.

A close call, but the pattern of the green sways it for me.
