It seems Umbro and Team Eng-er-land have decided to employ a men's outfitters to design and make made-to-measure kit for the national team for the first time in the FA's history.
It clearly worked after the kit's first outing on the weekend as the team won 4-0, but not everyone's going to be a winner. A replica shirt will set you back fifty notes.
I bet the tailor is pleased he only has to stitch on one star; that'll save a load of time...

This new kit is actually very retro and looks very smart - more like a polo shirt than a football shirt. It has very few additions (By special dispensation from FIFA)and is quite plain in look. Less work to putting the replicas together but the price is ONLY 40 of your Blitish squids not the Nifty you posted ........ LOL
ReplyDeleteI've only seen a glimpse of it on TV when they showed Shrek's goal- with him wearing it, a bin liner looks attractive.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's only forty quid? Bargain!
