Technically, it’s the same amber shade used on the home kit. Pantone 15-1153 ‘Apricot’ or Hex #F19035.

Here’s what amber is:

Here’s the shade we use on our kits this season, the Pantone 15-1153 which is also called ‘Apricot’:

I think the issue is that if we used true ‘amber’, it would look too yellow or golden, like a Wolves kit. At least with the ‘Apricot’ colour, it resembles a tiger’s stripes better.

Much prefer the top one.

Google is your friend, I perhaps should have used it, instead of relying on memory to an article I recently read, they've gone back to a badge they used in 1998. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

I did google, and couldn't see anything mentioned. Perhaps you could provide a link.
 
Frig my old boots! Some want spoon feeding, my Google search brought up numerous articles on their new badge. Top of the page was from their OWS. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

You mean the article from almost a year ago?

"Numerous articles"

If you're referring to this: https://fanbanter.co.uk/swansea-cau...-crest-again-while-new-home-kit-divides-fans/

It refers to the crest first worn in 1998 but was their regular crest until recently when they launched a commemorative crest for a single year, and another singular crest for a second year, before reverting to their regular crest. Just because it was first used in 1998 does not mean that was the last time it was worn.

So basically exactly what I said in my original post. <doh>
 
Among several others. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

Feel free to read my edit. You're really not coming across half as smart as you think you are. The crest they've returned to was used as recently as 2020/2021 and was only changed for two commemorative crests, exactly what I said in my original response to you.

Not smart in the slightest.
Memo to self, read, don't skim, the articles you're viewing. I'm in error and you have my apology, as a penance I'll view your latest podcast. :emoticon-0111-blush

It's fine, the frustration is just that it's exactly what I originally said and all I was after was a link to the article where you'd seen something different.

You might be pleasantly surprised..
