Green and white have been Plymouth Argyle’s colours for most of the club’s history. At TOFFS we recreate retro Plymouth Argyle shirts from the late 1950s to the Bukta era. Our classic Plymouth Argyle kits are handcrafted in the UK from 100% cotton, with no modern sponsor or manufacturer logos.

Argyle and the Pilgrims

The club began as Argyle FC in 1886 and became Plymouth Argyle on turning professional in 1903. Nobody is quite sure where the Argyle name came from: one theory points to the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, another to a local tavern or terrace. The Pilgrims nickname honours the Pilgrim Fathers, who sailed from Plymouth in 1620.

Green, and sometimes white

Argyle have mostly played in green and white, although white was the first choice for a spell in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Our Plymouth Argyle 1958-1959 Retro Football Shirt comes from the season Argyle won the Third Division, and the Plymouth Argyle 1960s Green Retro Football Shirt and Plymouth Argyle 1960s-70s Retro Football Shirt follow on.

Home Park

Argyle have played at Home Park since 1901. From the late 1970s there’s the Plymouth Argyle 1978-1980 Bukta Retro Football Shirt, and the Plymouth Argyle Green Harrington Jacket is part of our casualwear range.
