Whats everyones views on it?
Personally I think it looks hidious, nothing more than a polo shirt.

i think im right in saying england have brought 40 new shirts out in the last 41years,,fkin disgrace for me that..

not even seen the new one and not going out of my way to do so, why support a country that wont support me..time was etc.

Don't like it

---

Looks nice but far too overpriced

---

Best shirt we have had in years.

Will look "hideous" on the fat barstewards among us....but for for people with "Bruce Lee" physiques like myself, it'll look very nice.

I will be ordering one.

Best shirt in years (1982 is my favorite)

I will be buying one! But as i am a barsteward i will be purchasing a 5XL to hide my belly and conceal my huge biceps.

Not getting one Kaiapoi?

---

"The King Will Rise Again."

Ive not seen it yet. Anyone got a pic ?

Yes, but check the FA website

I think its ace, no fancy sh*t just a proper no nonsense england shirt

---

Nothing wrong with that and as for price I but it from Sports Direct for 70% off every year! Just give a few weeks and watch!

England shirts are such a rip off BUT at least you can shop around for a price unlike club shirts.

Saw claretnbooze in the League last night, he had a England top on that i had'nt seen before, didnt look like that tho.

Was he wearing a Fake(Sm127)

Yep he made it himself, big fan of Blue Peter, is Blue Peter.

I like the new England kit apart from that thing under the badge.

Also, where's the blue shorts gone?

---

Looks like they are sponsored by Daz

It's well kiff man. Im getting one of those.
The goalie top looks good too.

Proper football shirt like they used to wear in the 50's. I like it.

Not sure why they've gone back in time though, is it to celebrate some achievement or simply a marketing ploy, something different to make them sell ?

you the man

That one you've put up there doesn't have that gash underneath the badge that they had on yesterday. Hope it's not a permanent fixture.

That one you've put up there looks awesome.

Red numbers on the back as well eh?

---

the england shirt you buy for daft money in shop is only a copy and cost tuppence to make in sweat shops,

if you want a player spec excact replica then its ching ching well over hundred quid. and they called dick turpin a.

Saw one in the shop today. Didn't look that good up close, a bit too plain.

It is one of the training tops. got it from JJB for a tenner yesterday

---

I heard you got it off the 'outdoor market'.

---

I like it. Looks more like a rugby top too me though rather than a footy top - but Ill be getting one.

It seems that the thing underneath the badge is not a feature on every shirt.

I'll be getting one of the home shirts, just about pips the away shirt IMO.

My first day in Turkey is England's final group game of the World Cup. I'll be watching with new England shirt on, what a day that'll be.

Ale.

Can't wait

Good Luck wearuing it in Turkey LC.


i have the shirt shirt & they are ok

Some of the Turks hate the English

---

Not where I go mate, some of 'em wear England shirts.

---

Around me there are a fair few (probably 2nd or 3rd generation) Turks who wear England shirts. They all seem to have "Terry" on the back for some reason though.

---

Must like 'messing about'.

---

LC, you seen the away one?

Its alright!

The launch video for it is amazing. Umbro just turned up at a Kasabian Gig in Paris (I think, it was France anyway!). They gave the singer the new red shirt (before it had been seen). He popped it on and came out on stage wearing it to massive boo's!!! Then proceded to do the gig in it! There is a video on youtube I think, its CLASS.

I like both the home and away, if youre the sort that doesnt like outdated shirts though, id get the away one.

We bring out one every year, early in the year... Next year it will be the home one so youre only gonna get 8Months or so of it being 'in use'.

If youre the sort that aint bothered though then no problem!!!

TC, just made my spine tingle that. What do you think of it?

LC, whadya make of that vid?

I'd have paid a lot of money to have been able to have been him for that few minutes, look at him!!!

WOW, what a launch vid! Can see why you got excited by that now MH.

Really well thought out.

Really wanted the home one, but didn't realise how good the away looked until I saw that.

---

You'll get two years 'in' wear from the away LC.

How good is the vid? Play it loud, the booing, the music, class.

He loved it didn't he. Passion.

His reaction (to the booing) is superb.

---

Always prefered the red England shirts.

The keepers away one looks good for the hols LC [englandstore.thefa.com]

Long sleeve though TC.

Oh aye, the one I saw is a kids one. ('twould save money on sun-cream though )

Robbie Williams was on tv earlier (Sport Aid jobby) & was wearing an England zip up jacket with the 3 lions badge on, red white & blue elasticated cuffs & collar. Is that the new un? Looked quite retro.

OK, now how about one without that @#$%& in it?

---

I wonder who at Umbro got paid to think that up.

"I know, we'll launch the shirt in France with some random Irish indie band, that'll truly define it being an 'away' shirt, no links to England whatsoever".

Umbro headquarters is quite cool though, they've got the England shirts on what are basically giant 6' subbuteo figures in reception. Meeting rooms are named after the 66 squad, I was in Bobby when I was there.

Whatever happened to Bumblebee by the way.

---

Still living for that video!!!

If some frog star did that at the MEN we'd have an 'off'!!!


I like lots of the England stuff now and will have to make some purchases before they step away from the classic look.

I like both the tops, home and away, and the grey retro drill top the subs wear (always shows Becks in one!).

Best of all for me is the tight, white jacket they come out in. Annoyingly I can find this in the shops but the Umbro crest and the England badge are both in red/blue whereas I like the one the team some out in, the whole thing is pure white, including the stitching on the Umbro and Three Lions.

Having said that, packs wear crisp white jackets dont they???!
