 Other than 1984, striped socks (matching the jersey stripes) had been a signature design element in the team's traditional uniform.The white striped socks appeared occasionally with the white jerseys in 2003–2005 and 2007.Experimentation continued in 2003 and 2004 when the traditional orange-brown-orange stripes on the white pants were replaced by two variations of a brown-orange-brown sequence, one in which the stripes were joined (worn with white jerseys) and the other in which they were separated by white (worn with brown jerseys).
