Help! Orange piped HJ shoulderboards

[enthusiast]

Hello, Last week I was at the Ciney show and saw this HJ shirt with orange piped shoulder boards. Are they genuine, as I asked several well known dealers about them and all said they had never seen orange piped shoulder boards?? Any help or info would be appreciated. Thanks, Andreas.

For me, its just red. Maybe this was the type of red they used, or from something like sun damage or overwashing.

Yes, can't be orange as that was of course never a colour used on these straps. I would give it a wide swerve. Look at the button they used for the strap

The shoulder boards shown above make a good impression, and the thread used to woven in the number is not the same as the piping. I also assume that the piping has faded from the sun. I've seen several boards like these and have some in my own collection.

The button is, of course, completely misplaced.
