This is the new West Bromwich Albion 11/12 Third football shirt made by Adidas.
The Baggies registered the adidas design with the Barclays Premier League in case their traditional blue-and-white-striped first kit and cyan-and-navy change strip clashed with other teams' home colours.
And the PGMO (Professional Game Match Officials) have requested the team to wear the red outfit (modelled by Paul Scharner) at Stamford Bridge, after deciding Albion's other two strips are too similar to Chelsea's home kit.
"We're a little bit surprised we have been asked to wear the red kit this early in the season, especially as we've worn blue-and-white stripes at Chelsea in the Premier League before," said chief executive Mark Jenkins.
"But we respect the PGMO's decision and will kit out the team accordingly."
Albion will stock a limited number of red third kits in club stores from October - and the Baggies will be hoping it once again proves a lucky colour.
Albion have had red kits in each of the past two seasons - as a change strip in 2009/10 and as a third kit last term - and have only lost once while wearing it.

I dunno if you realised fella, but the title of the kit kinda tells us it's West Brom's kit :/
Nah I'm joking, it quite clearly says it's Chelsea's home kit...Jesus -_-
Because this kit, which is called the Toque II, is a brand new teamwear kit for 2011-2012.
Check your stats
and ManU don't use adidas idiot!!
It's a 2-year old template. Wah wah wah. Stop the whining.
What a shame.

stop moaning about templates, just because its a template does not mean it is rubbish.
Can`t believe clubs still opt for these soulless kits. And it isn`t just Adidas who`s at fault; Puma and Nike are just as bad.
Looks good enough, will fill its purpose nicely.
But why do Paparazzis always tell them to pull down the Shirt >: (
At least Simon Cox will feel at home playing in it !!
