The same day of its foundation in 1925, the uniform was defined by Juan Quiñones, according to the propositions of David Arellano. After a match disputed against Spain's Real Unión Deportiva, because Arellano's tragic death during that game, the shirt of «Los Albos» wears a black horizontal band, that means the eternal mourning of the institution, for the death of its founder. Initially, was located on the shirt's left sleeve, until 1974, when was placed over the club's badge. Because of this, during the 1930s, the team wore the nickname The Mourners. In regard to the alternative kit, Colo-Colo wore several models throughout its history. The first of those, in 1927, was a green shirt and short & socks 
  black.
