The North Melbourne Football Club has a long history of wearing various designs in the colours of royal blue and white. Most of the club's earliest jumpers were long-sleeved and not the sleeveless design common today. In their early years the club sported a hooped design when they took to the field. This changed at the behest of the VFA in 1884 who insisted that Hotham change their jumpers to vertical stripes to provide a visible contrast between Hotham and Geelong. After 1884 the vertical top was worn more often, usually in the lace up design in the gallery below. After the merger with West Melbourne, North used a composite jumper that incorporated West Melbourne's red sash for the 1908 season. The merger was in reality, a takeover. The red sash was a token gesture and was removed the following season. In the early 1920s North experimented with an NMFC monogram design, following League clubs like Carlton and South Melbourne. Upon promotion to the VFL in 1925, North Melbourne was forced to abandon its royal blue and white striped jumper as it was deemed the jumper design clashed with other clubs. During this period a jumper with a V design was used for several years, before the club returned to using its striped jumper combination of royal blue and white which has been used continuously since 1932. ==Gallery of designs== Image:North Melbourne Football Club guernseys (1886).png|1886 Image:North Melbourne Football Club guernsey 1908.gif|1908 Image:North Melbourne Football Club guernsey 1909.gif|1909 Image:North Melbourne Football Club guernsey 1911.gif|1911 Image:North-1914.gif|1914 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「North Melbourne Football Club guernseys」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
