Here's an example...

"Various stockings were tried until the run-up to the 1962 World Cup in Chile, when white socks with a red and navy cadet stripe became standard. (When England played Brazil in the quarter-final half the team had to wear plain white socks, possibly because the management had not packed enough pairs to see them through to this stage.) An all-red strip was used in the pre-tournament tour (v Peru) and again in the competition itself (v Bulgaria) and all-white was worn against Argentina and Brazil" User Posted Link
