Here is what appears to be the new shirt for the Italian Men's National Team for 2012 - 2013 we believe and to be used in the 2012 European Championship in Poland and Ukraine.
The new Azzuri shirt has a more traditional design that it's previous incarnation with a folded collar just as many shirts during the 80's and 90's did. The collar is in white with the Italian tricolor around the edge.
The rest of the shirt appears to have a design of lines going diagonally down and meeting in the middle to form a kind of chevron pattern.
Thanks to iznogoud
What do you think? Will this be the shirt the Italians where at Euro 2012? Do you think the shirt is likely to be different?

The Euro 96 shirt was completely different:

Well done to the 38 n00bz who wrongly agreed with you though.
Orange is the color of the Dutch Royal Family. The lineage of the current dynasty -- the House of Oranje-Nassau -- dates back to Willem van Oranje (William of Orange). But while the color orange has royal roots in the Netherlands, today it symbolizes a broader pride in the country and in being Dutch.
Oranje = Orange
A lot of national teams have shirts that not resemble their flags. Sometimes its a symbolic colour for the country, sometimes only for superstitious reasons: Brazil became green-gold with blue shorts after their defeat in World Cup 1950 against Uruguay (a true tragedy for Brazilian people), before that their were completely white with a blue collar. Japan instead decided to wear blue after a victory (I read this, but not sure if it's true).
Germany not only has a classical white-black kit, but also their away kit is usually green.
some people...
How can you tell its heavy from a photo?
Morons.
non capisci un cazzo!
PS. Cresci!
After the awful 2010 version a classy kit for a classy team

Concur. Shirt designers have run out of ideas. We live in an era of re-hashing.
How about no?
I kinda like it though

Will have to see how high the collar sticks up, but is Puma trying to make the Azzurri look terrible these days?
Top 5 Italy shirts:
1.) Euro 1996
2.) World Cup 2006
3.) Confed cup 2009
4.) Euro 1996 qualifying
5.) World Cup 1994
And not far behind is Euro 2000 and this 1.
The Euro 2000 kit is far better. Should have gone for a 1980s feel like Germany have rather than a mid 90s look.
Don't like the white collar but I like the flag trim. Should have gone blue and the fabric should have been less bling.
The Tailored by Umbro kits are a good reference.
Absolutely right.
