St Kilda players were back on the track yesterday following their end of season break, returning to training with a fresh yellow training tee.
The bright pre-season LEDified t-shirt will see the Saints into their 2014 campaign.
The Saints have a history of incorporating yellow into its uniform, dating back to 1915 during World War One.

The traditional white stripe in St Kilda’s original guernsey was replaced for seven years because the colours were associated with the German flag.
When the war was over, the yellow was removed.
By the time the Second World War began, rationale prevailed and the Saints remained in their home colours until this day.
In more than 141 years in the red, white and black there have been a few alternate playing strips featuring the yellow colour.
In the early 2000s the Saints partnered with a sponsor and created a yellow guernsey featuring a St Kilda logo on the front.
The LEDified tees will be available for purchase at Saints Locker later this month.
