href="/wiki/Colchester_Town_F.C." title="Colchester Town F.C.">Colchester Town</a> and played in blue and white striped shirts combined with white shorts. For the majority of the club's history, the kit has remained true to the traditional design, with slight variations occurring in 1967 and 1968, when candy stripes were preferred, with white on blue used for <a href="/wiki/1967%E2%80%9368_Colchester_United_F.C._season" title="1967–68 Colchester United F.C. season">1967–68</a> and blue on white for <a href="/wiki/1968%E2%80%9369_Colchester_United_F.C._season" title="1968–69 Colchester United F.C. season">1968–69</a>. The stripes were removed altogether between 1969 and 1973, with blue shirts and blue shorts adopted between 1969 and 1972 as modelled by <a href="/wiki/Chelsea_F.C." title="Chelsea F.C.">Chelsea</a>, and white shirts for <a href="/wiki/1972%E2%80%9373_Colchester_United_F.C._season" title="1972–73 Colchester United F.C. season">1972–73</a> during a failed relaunch. The original stripes were reinstated for the following campaign, and remained largely unchanged since this period. The club briefly used blue kits with white pinstripes between 1982 and 1986, and a crosshatch design between 1988 and 1990.<a href="#cite_note-hist_kits-42">[42]</a> The club adopted the <a href="/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Colchester" class="mw-redirect" title="Coat of arms of Colchester">coat of arms of Colchester</a> for their club crest upon their formation in June 1937.

In 1980, the club's chairman Maurice Cadman announced that Layer Road was in need of <a href="/wiki/Pound_sterling" title="Pound sterling">£</a>280,000 of basic safety improvement to meet legislation. Plans were drawn up to remove the Open End altogether and construct a 5,000 capacity stand at the Layer Road End and a new main stand on the Popular side.
