Juventus, believe it or not copied their kit from Notts County.
It has worked like this across a lot of foreign teams, copying english teams colours
 
Newcastle used to play in red when they were formed but changed it so their colours wouldn't clash with Sunderland.
 
When we gave the 'beautiful game' to the world, the pioneers who spread the gospel also copied the kits from the motherland. Hence a lot of foreign clubs wear the colours of the founder members of the football league and the clubs who followed not long after the aforementioned founders.
 
I've got an old football book that says that Juventus got their kits from the same
manufacturer as Notts County's. Juventus used to play in all pink, but one ore-season were sent Notts County's kit by mistake.

The Black and White stripes stuck!

I always thought Notts County sent Juventus their old kit to play in. I'm sure I read this as Notts County were part of Juventus' centenary celebrations a few years ago?

I also believe that Nottm Forest did the same with Arsenal one year, with Arsenal adding the white sleeves?

They did. They wore pink in a full team out friendly at Meadow Lane to celebrate it.

That is true. The white sleeves came several years after Arsenal first started playing in Forest's red.

In the late 70s Stockport wore Argentina's kit (and it really was a kit initially manufactured for Argentina).
