The World Cup does seem to delay the release of kits (both Manchester clubs have only just released their home kits), as manufacturers are under the belief that they can flog more international kits while England are still playing. But just like before Christmas we are all looking forward to the shirt, like that mystery shaped box which we can't wait to open. Now whether the kit is a "Hollyoaks babes" calendar or a new pair of sturdy slippers is going to be open to debate. I have an idea of the new kit in my mind - and it is a cracker
It's a week since Umbro were at the KC preparing the launch, so either they'll launch today/tomorrow, or there's still a shirt sponsor issue.
Umbro's kit for Nautico (released today) is very nice (here: http://instagram.com/p/qd9iJkuHoC/). If ours is anything like this I might actually be persuaded to buy it.
That's nice like it Mind you I'm more interested to see what the away kits look like. We're playing in stripes so pretty much know what it's gonna look like. Umbro seem to have got their act together and are producing some really nice kits. The best around IMO
I like the idea that someone said earlier in this thread about the RC Lens away kit in White with black and amber vertical stripes on the left
The photo shoot has already happened, which surely means we have a sponsor in place unless we are planning to Photoshop it on after which I doubt. I have a feeling the 3rd kit/Cup kit will be released on Friday along with the Europa League draw
Sponsors seem quite unimaginative really, it's just a name splattered across the chest. I reckon Velcro could bring a different approach to it all, with stick on stripes, or sleeves.
