Arsenal will wear their traditional red shirts and white shorts in Sunday's Carabao Cup final against Manchester City after a rethink by the EFL.
The Gunners were initially informed they would have to don red shorts which did not go down well with some fans and the governing body has had a change of heart.
City will wear their traditional sky blue shirts, white shorts and sky blue socks. Arsenal will still wear red socks.
An EFL spokesperson said: "After due consideration, it has been decided that Arsenal and Manchester City will wear white shorts in Sunday's Carabao cup final.
"Arsenal were initially scheduled to wear red shorts, but it is the shared view of the EFL and the clubs that both teams should be able to wear their recognised first team colours in such an occasion as a major domestic cup final so long as it doesn't cause problems for the match officials."
Had the initial EFL directive stood, it would have been only the second time in 39 years that Arsenal would have worn red shorts, and based on past results in the full colour, the omens were not good for Arsene Wenger's men.
Arsenal have never won a match in an all red strip, having last worn red shorts for their visit to West Bromwich Albion on New Year's Eve, which finished 1-1.
Arsenal reportedly first wore red shorts and red shirts at an away game against QPR on April 11 1978.
