You can't get more traditional than wearing a kit in the style of your first ever kit. If you were born in 1860 you would have been up in arms that Saints changed from a sash to halves and then stripes. You would be making a thread saying Saints should be sashes forever!!!!
Unlike the 80's where there possibly may not have been a return to stripes, this is a one off, one year only kit. It isn't something to get angry about.
