Everton Football Club has launched its new Nike Home kit for the 2012-13 season, which is available here.
The stylish Royal Blue jersey is the Club’s first ever home kit to feature the famous Nike Swoosh, after the global sportswear giant became Everton’s technical partner for next term.
The classic shirt features broad white cuffs and a white v-neck trim, and is made from Nike Dri-Fit fabric which is lightweight and manages perspiration, keeping players dry and comfortable for 90 minutes and beyond.
The kit is also part of Nike’s Considered Design programme aimed at reducing environmental impact, and consists of 100% recycled material.
Everton's player of the year John Heitinga admits he can't wait to play in the Club's new Nike home kit.
The Dutch defender got a sneak preview at a recent photoshoot, and he told evertontv: "I am really familiar with Nike kits having played in them for Holland and my previous clubs – they are always slim fit and really nice jerseys.

"The blue kit is my favourite, it is beautiful kit. I have seen all three and they are all beautiful but the blue shirt is our home colours – the one we play in most often – and I always like to wear our own colours.
"I think the Everton fans will be really happy with it."
The kit exists as Nike's interpretation of Everton tradition, and Tony Hibbert is a fan of its simplicity.
He said: "They are really nice kits. The home is obviously in the blue and white and is plain but traditional. I like it."
Skipper Phil Neville added: "It makes you feel good when you look down and see that swoosh on your chest.
"Players are vain and when you look good and feel good then you play better. This kit looks fantastic and I can't wait to play in it next season."
Supporters can see the Royal Blue home strip in action for the first time this Saturday for the Blues’ pre-season friendly against Morecambe.
The Everton 2012/13 black away strip with yellow detail was launched last month as the first offering from Nike and has already proved popular with supporters.
The new strip is now available to pre-order here and will go on sale on Thursday 19 July.
Thanks to Liam, Scott,Brad and Steve

He looks like a subbuteo player.
Put a bar between him and Gibson and they're table footballers
Love it!
People saying it's boring? I guess there is no accounting for taste.
Maybe it needs some flames? Or a nice tribal design on the sleeves maybe?
``The kit exists as Nike's interpretation of Everton tradition´´. Well, the kit exists as a Nike template used in different teams this season. Nothing special neither original.
Also interesting that Heitinga mentions a third shirt.......
You prefer le cak sportiff to Nike ?? the kits LCS did for MCFC prior to Umbro were the absolutely terrible !!!
Check out Brazil’s new shirt. Look familiar?
The white hoops on the sleeves aren't very nice, but they're at least interesting.
Actually you do know it won't happen
People are moaning about templates - but is having the Brazil shirt not good enough for us?
Looks smart and is with somebody much better than Le Coq.
This site has just become a moaning site about Nike - so weird.
loved alan harper when he was at city, him and neil pointon, real 100 percenters!!
Smart enough kit otherwise although I always prefered Everton with white socks (and no points).
COYB!!!
i hate when people think they are BIG!, we will see what happens to you if you keep doing comments like that
Great job Nike!
Glad I bought the black one now like, the home one is nice but the sleeves spoil it a bit.
what is wrong with Phil Neville's nipples?
Still, at least we didn't get Warrior making our kits...
