We already showed you a leaked picture, but today Manchester City unveiled the new European Away shirt, tailored by Umbro, which will be available here.
The black and carbon grey striped shirt is set to be worn in City’s European away games as well as selected Premier League fixtures.
The new third shirt features smart black and carbon grey stripes on the body and arms of the kit, with subtle vista blue trim on the inner stretch cuffs referencing the team’s home colours as they travel abroad. The same vista blue colour also features on the embroidered Umbro diamond and MCFC crest on the chest, and the sponsor’s logo.

The black colourway is inspired by kits worn by St. Mark’s (West Gorton) in the 1880s and nods to the night-time matches usually played in the Champions League.
The neckline is inspired by an iconic Umbro Drill Top – a classic ribbed crew neck with a v-insert, which helps with fit and movement.
As ever, comfort and fit is a key factor in the new Manchester City shirt, with displaced shoulder seams and a shaped drop hem to give a smart look whether you’re on or off the field. Edge stitching or twin needle finishing is used to give the shirt a clean and crisp appearance.
The shirt is teamed with black shorts with the Umbro double diamond and club crest embroidered in vista blue. Black socks with a vista blue cuff and black hoops complete the kit.
With the Champions League fixtures due to be revealed next week, we’ll soon know which cities this stylish shirt will be appearing in.
You can pre-order the new shirt from today here and it goes on 14th September.

Dear Marc,
The whole Umbro team are writing to apologize for this error. We understand it is exactly the same as last seasons third kit. Though unfortunately we will not be contracted to Manchester City in the future, I'm afraid we can't make up for this mistake. Though we are all willing to be more creative with our future football kits, such as the official England football kits for the FIFA World Cup in 2014. We wish Manchester City all the best with Nike in the future, and hopefully Nike don't pick up on our foolish mistakes.
Thankyou for taking this into consideration.
Sincerely,
The official Umbro team.
LOL but England won't go to 2014 WC. Sorry to tell but England suck at football.
I couldnt agree more!!
Umbro really going out of Manchester with a bang.
Your move Nike...
I'm a spam Utd fan and I really feel sorry for city fans as from next year they won't have another decent shirt for as long as Nike make them.
Just look at the past however many United shirts for evidence! You'll find some shocking stuff!

Proud they're responsible for our national Kit. Their 1912 anniversary Shirt for Canada is enough proof that this company is serious about giving both clients and fans the absolute best they have to give.
Thanks Umbro for being with City through some of their Best Years!!! CTID
