This season featured a mix of shirt styles on the pitch. The long-sleeved crew-neck shirts, introduced the previous year, were regularly worn, but for the first few months, the short-sleeved v-necks made a comeback. As winter set in, the long-sleeved shirts became the preferred choice, yet matches often showcased a blend of both styles.

The all-white Bukta kit continued as the main away colours.
At Newport, the referee's team sheet stated Oxford United wore white shirts and blue shorts. However, the styling has yet to be verified, so this has been illustrated paired with the Bukta white garments.
This was the first season we saw a full kit provided for the goalkeepers.
