According to sources close to the project, the new England 10/12 away kit made by Umbro will be almost identical to the one worn by the World Cup winners in 1966.
The new England 2010/2012 away kit will be unveiled in March 2010.
The tailored shirts, made by Umbro, will be entirely red with no other colour trimmings apart from a white three Lions England emblem on the chest.
The new top will have a slight V-neck whereas the original 1966 shirts(seen on the right) were crew neck.
The shorts will be all-white, just like Umbro's 1966 England kit.
It is expected the kit will cost around £40-£45 for a shirt and £20-£25 for shorts.

Can\'t wait until Ireland gets their tailored shirt!
I bet you support England over the US team as well (and have no English blood whatsoever), you eurosnob mother****er. Go sod yourself.
As far as THE TOPIC goes, I look forward to it. I think the current home kit is pure class.
You mean cite not sire?
Although you would think by now England have learned that dwelling on 1966 has held them back for over 40 years...
Have navy, grey, yellow, light blue...... Create a new history not constantly re-creating the old !!
I wouldn\'t mind if it had the same colar as the City dark shirt.
Oh and Jimbo... very good mate,
One change I would like to see is England away kits lasting for either 3 or 4 years. That might sound silly to some, but typically England away kits are used so infrequently over a 2-year cycle in comparison to the home that it makes sense for them to be used for longer. If the design is good enough then sales might be increased also. Away kits being worn 6 or 7 times by the national team is hardly enough to justify fans buying them.
I wonder if Umbro would consider bringing back the Airtex shirts after the tailored jobs :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:
Yes they can say they\'re going back to the roots for inspiration but I think that\'s a whole load of \'stuff\'. Come on, Umbro used to make lovely kits with superb designs a few seasons ago with the diamond patterns. Now it seems like they\'re just doing a football shirt version of \"pimp my ride\".
THAT IS WHY WE WON'T WIN ANYTHING BECAUSE WE AREN'T LOOKING FORWARD!
bring out something unique! not something beige/bland/boring
at those saying england won't win anything because they're using a retro shirt - get over yourselves!! what has the shirt got to do with the team on the park? nothing! that's what.
have a nice day
Unfortunately I am not allowed to give out details on how exactly the shirt looks until it is publicly released.
because the english flag is red and white!!! simple is as simple does!
wear blue on the home shorts (usually) because of the three lions and nothing more..
after recently going on the wembly tour in london, i know the facts of the new shirt after seeing it 1st person.
its all red, with still the umbro logo in white, the england badge without the ENGLAND over the top, same material as the home top, with the cotton feel, bar the sleeves which are more traditional material, white font for numbers and names, and the feature of the shirt, white cuffs, at the end of the sleeve, the shorts are white with a red strip down the side and reed logos, heres the top:
