Universitario de Deportes 2012 umbro home football shirt

This is the new Universitario de Deportes 2012home football shirt made by Umbro.

Universitario de Deportes, based in the capital city of Lima, have stitched a special crest onto the inside of their new shirt, so that it will be close to the heart of both players and fans that wear it and show their support around the world.

The special internal crest has been created by Peruvian artist and Universitario fan Cherman, inspired by one of the team’s nicknames, ‘Garra Crema’ – the Cream Claws. While this is a literal translation of the team’s colours, ‘garra’ is also considered to be a local word for resilliance and strength, and is seen by the Universitario fans as a key characteristic of the team.

The new shirt, which the team will wear throughout the forthcoming 2012 season, has been Tailored by Umbro to reflect the culture and history of the team, who were the first Peruvian squad to reach the final of the Copa Libertadores. Alongside the internal crest, the shirt also features the supporter’s ‘garra crema’ logo on the hem. Crafted from a lightweight cotton/polyester fabric, the shirt also features the team’s iconic U logo embroidered on the chest.

It's very nice, but I don't get the recent 'inside badge' thing. Nike has also done it. What's the point?

Well first off, Umbro is a subsidiary of Nike. So both of them doing it makes sense. And it's just another subtle feature to drive the connection between the fan and the club. The crest "over the heart", along with the special club graphic on the reverse side of the crest.

Does anyone know where I can buy this and previous seasons Universitario shirts, from in (or delivered to) the UK? Obsessed with their last 3 kits (don't judge!) but can't find anywhere to get them...! No luck via umbro, subside, uksoccershop etc... Cheers.

I actually was looking for the 2010 shirt for a while as well. Funny thing is, as I was walking down a busy road in a Manchester suburb, I saw one lying in a puddle next to a charity clothes bin. I couldn't believe it. Someone around here had managed to get hold of one but then just chucked it out!

Piss Poor effort, re-cycled Man City shirt as #Mendez has stated, how many teams do umbro design/supply for globally? Surely an 'exclusive' design for their sponsored clubs!? POOR EFFORT

It is the man city template w/o the music soundscape pattern, with a stunning colour scheme, and without the dirty oil sponsor. Somebody must've spiked your badger milk, because otherwise you'd see that this shirt is amazing.

La U get all the best kits. It's the cream and red - probably the best colour combination of any kit. Umbro have played it so brilliantly recently.

I don't care at all that it's City's kit, it's a hundred times more beautiful.

it's all about the detail. To see this level of detail in a kit is impressive.

Any news when it'll be available to purchase?
