Question Number: 33520Law 4 - The Players Equipment 7/14/2019RE: Professional Hussain Jan Gramkani of Muscat, Oman asks...If a player wearing white socks and black shorts. He has a long underwear which is white color and it ends in socks under shinguard. So the white sequence starts from ankle to shorts then black shorts. Is it allowed?? Answer provided by Referee Joe McHugh Hi Hussain
The undershorts must be the same colour as the players shorts. So in this case white undershorts cannot be worn with black shorts. It makes no difference that the socks are white.

The law is quite clear on this. It says:
''Undershorts/tights must be the same colour as the main colour of the shorts or the lowest part of the shorts ''
It doesn't matter what colour the socks are, the undershorts, tights, leggings or whatever you want to call them, must match the shorts.
