This may of already been answered somewhere, but I would think until the sponsor is announced, they wont want to release the kit. is that right???
Just been to renew our passes and went into club shop afterwards. The bloke at the counter said he thought a deal for a new sponsor was complete but he wouldn't or couldn't say who it was. Also said new kit probably won't be available until mid - late July.
The kit will be launched by mid July, we're not going to start playing pre-seasons in last seasons kit. Due to the late timing, I expect the kit and the sponsor to be launched around the same time, though I'd expect the sponsor to be named before the kit is released.
Apparently Everton's kit is based on their 1924 kit (the year Umbro was founded) so based on that we should expect something like this: please log in to view this image
The shirt from that kit design site which did the rounds last week was also based on the 1924 kits. Add the buttons and its the same.
