Colours
The primary and secondary colors of East Bengal are red and yellow respectively.[14] Traditionally, the home kit consists of a red and yellow jersey with black shorts, while the away kit colors vary every year.[15] These colors came about after the club was formed when the founders debated over them for the club jersey. At that time, the jerseys used to come from England. The founders, while searching, came across the red and gold color shirt hanging at the Whiteaway, Laidlaw & Co. department store in Chowringhee, Kolkata. It attracted them, and they finalized the colors and jersey. It cost ₹80 in 1920, four times higher than the average.[16] These colours permanently integrated with the club.[4]
