What's your favourite Palace retro shirt?

For me, it's the claret and blue pinstripe with yellow cuffs from 1970 and the admiral sash from '79. The latter wasn't nice material, but it looked great. More recently, the Puma home kit from 19/20 was very nice.

The adidas sash of the early 80’s, especially when we wore the home shirt away with blue shorts

Also the home red n blue red rose kit which I always associate with Kevin Mabbutt, but sadly also Mullery🤨 which is the only downside
 
Claret & Blue pinstripe with yellow trim.
Also our first Red & Blue striped shirt with the numbers on the sleeve but in my ideal world we'd have stuck with Claret & Blue.

yellow, YELLOW!!!! It's 'primrose' I'll have you know, get it right mate!😉 That kit and the original 73-76 red and blue, the Don Rogers, the Lombardo with AC Milan style white shorts and stockings, and the red and blue don rogers of 15/16 when we beat Mourinho's Chelsea. Most hated - Goldberg's all red with blue trim, wasn't keen on those early 90s nearly all red kits with one or two blue vertical bars either - but like the 1990 cup final kit, had enough blue. And I like royal blue not the lightish shade we've got now. Don't know why we don't play in red socks for the final.

Sorry old flower. Primrose it is.
 
Yes, agreed, but i remberer that the collar was very tight, mind you i was only, 8, and i had/have a fat neck 🤣
It was a bit unforgiving but it was good enough for The Don so that's enough for anybody. My wife got me one a few years ago & it'll be on for the final.
The 37/38 kit was surprisingly red & blue but I don't remember any talk about heritage shirts when we switched from claret & blue.
