Kit Colours and Design

The club decided in 1932 to take Montevideo Wanderers F.C. kit and colours (black and white) as homage to the latter club being the last amateur champion of Uruguay in 1931. Montevideo Wanderers Fútbol Club, usually known simply as Wanderers is a Uruguayan football club based in Montevideo. Later when they entered a zonal league they were said to change design due to the club Universal Ramírez using exclusively that pattern. One member suggested a right sash over the white kit inspired in River Plate of Buenos Aires, but with the sash in black. The design remains until today. Their shorts are black (although some seasons they dress in white, although it is not the traditional colour) and their socks are white. In the 2005/06 season, the club wore an unusual green jersey with a white sash as their third uniform to play against teams similar in colours (such as Miramar Misiones and Wanderers). Club Sportivo Miramar Misiones, usually known simply as Miramar Misiones is an Uruguayan football club based in Montevideo. In 2007,green was reintroduced in a match against Saprissa of Costa Rica. As of late 2007,it was resolved to discontinue to use of the green jersey,due to the repetitive defeats against Wanderers and Miramar,and considered to be a "cursed" jersey. New third colour is red.
