New England kit.

Plain white with no red bits to signify the St George Cross,DON'T LIKE IT.

Out of interest, did you like the traditional BLUE shorts?

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

it's nice ... post-modern as f*** ... it's a stand against chav focussed fashion.

And well done Umbro for not thinking they're bigger than England by rolling out the usual shite in the house-style like they've been doing since the mid 80's.

In terms of football shirt design and direction, it's got to be one of the most exciting developments since the wonderful Italy/Kappa skin-tight design of the late 90's.

Your thoughts on this Goldstone Rapper?

I'm glad it's not the usual Umbro fare but I think it's rather bland, to be honest. I am a fan of minimalistic kits - however if it's going down this route, I think this one should be much, much more elegant.

Not keen looked more like a rugby shirt plus it seemed to make England play shit

anybody over 16 who buys and wears the latest replica shirt is a little bit of a saddo ...

why don't you chant that at people wearing Brighton shirts at the next game?


I think that shirt looks great - like the retro feel to it.

Now our resident kit specialist, I wonder how cool it would be if Umbro did a kit for Brighton, exactley the same design only white collars on a blue shirt, white shorts and blue socks with the original round badge? I recon they would sell like hot cakes no?

Two questions...
1. Does England's home strip no longer include blue shorts?
2. Will England be getting a new away strip in the same design as the new home strip?

1. It has blue shorts and red socks as the alternative, for when we cannot play in all white (i.e. against holland or any other team that plays their home matches in white shorts).

2. Certainly not yet - the current away shirt is scheduled to be replaced spring next year.

My mate got one in today for 40 quid. In person it looks so classy and feels really really nice. Still doesnt look like a football kit though.

Yeah, Sports Direct have it for £40 - SportsDirect.com (or Sport & Soccer in town)
So the same price as most replicas really.

Just seen the england kit in person.

The collar looks better than it does on TV. Still, the material is nothing special. The red Umbro logo ruins the minimalist chic.

Yeah, 2 games, 6 goals, a clean sheet and a step closer to qualifying for the World Cup. Yeah, it's been a LIABILITY so far.

You've just reminded me of this by Score Draw

Looks good in the picture but let down by horrible material that's uncomfortable and easily misshapen. Not a patch on toffs kit material.

 

[Walkers Cajun Squirrel]

Horrible kit.
