New England Kit - Pre Order

Tuesday, 03 March 2009 04:32 09/10 kits

In 1924 Umbro founder Harold Humphreys brought the art of bespoke tailoring to the World of football. He called it sportswear.

Today Umbro once again brings together the traditional values of classic tailoring with modern fabric technology and a revolutionary design philosophy: Style meets performance.

The new England kit is the proud result. Honouring the past, looking forward to the future.

The new England Kit is available for pre-order Now.

New matchball too: looks good, Umbro must have realised the Dynamis looks like absolute crud.

there definitely seems to be a clue that the badge will be on the left hand side nearer to the shoulder that normal.

Who cares about new England kit, the only way they will win WC is if that country is the venue and they have the referee on their side...

Brazil and Italia always get the silver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the sketches, one has a collar, looks smart, guess that\'s the \'tailoring\' - could be really cool...has anyone got any spy shots of the real thing? Someone must have.

Well, look at the third image down and there are 2 different sketches of 2 very different collars - one is similar to the 2005 England home shirt.

Umbro are enjoying messing with FSC!

This is just Umbro messing around with FSC with the images shown. The collars doesn\'t show anything, they are just drawings of different designs that tailors use when they are trying to create or think up new designs which is called the designing process.
It does look like they are trying to look at past designs to create something different with character and something with more heritage.
I am actually looking forward to this new shirt, i have a feeling that this one is going to be a cracker! or its just wishful thinking on my behalf.

Looks really interesting ! Not the usual plastic football shirts. Depth of thinking and really strong research into heritage. Could well be a winner ! Lets hope the team do it justice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think what they should do is make a home shirt exactly like that of 1966! just plain white with a retro England badge and a red umbro. Also dith the ENGLAND above the crest, everyone knows who we are when they see the three lions for f**k sake!

The guy in the pictures is Aitor Throup who has been doing some stuff for Stone Island recently.

They look like his sketches too so it could be interesting and hopefully just a white shirt with some nice close-up detailing.

I hope that the new shirt is very plain, traditional and tailored. I\'m sure alot of people just like to buy the XL from the rack but it\'s important to try the shirt and get the correct fit. I hope that the material is also good quality and please design new lettering and number patterns, which must be in red!

Funny how all the Umbro stuff is made in China and they are doing this campaign about how English the tailoring is. Contradictions. Wot tits they are

Tailoring is just for the design process, the chinese aren\'t the ones designing it just because they are used for there cheap labour. But can i just say i am liking your name and i think i shall be having some king prawns later me thinks!
