3. Juventus. Took their kit.
I think specifically they were founded by someone from Notts County who naturally chose the black and white stripes, weren't they?

All good so far
Told you it was easier
Just to clarify on No 3
Yes Juve are the old lady and were generously given their first strip by Notts County after an English Juve player with connections to County asked the club for help in 1903.

More recently when County got into financial trouble Juve offered to supply their kit for them as a sort of thank you gesture.

It couldn't happen however as Juve offered an Adidas kit and Puma, The County kit supplier, objected.
Perhaps not surprising given that Puma was founded after a split between the Dassler brothers who owned Addidas. Leading to the creation of Puma.
Hey, this has become more than an answer!

And very interesting it is, too! (If you like that kind of thing - and of course the kind of people who do quizzes like this do like that kind of thing!)
