This is it then? That other pic doesn't look fake. Very happy if this is true.

I'd be very pleased with that. I'm not a fan of Umbro but at least they'll give us a proper Everton shirt, just possibly slightly on the conservative side. Rather that than those Picasso on acid designed shirts they've got across the park.

They're now sponsored by Bidvest. I think there's some link between the two parties, but I don't understand it.

Just seen this tweeted today,

I think this would be class as the away kit, though maybe its too similar to this seasons away?

I'd be horrified if that was legit

It's totally legit.

I might wear it to a Power Station concert, but that's about it...

I love how naff this is.

I'd rather scoop my eyeballs out with hot spoons than wear that monstrosity.

It seems people have some strong opinions about this Kit (based on 1990 to 1992 UMBRO away kit which you can buy from subsidesports.com, if you feel so inclined)

I kind of think, because we will have 3 kits, you can afford to have one that is a bit different and two traditional ones

£99! Flippin' 'eck.

To be honest, I like both traditional and different. I'm sat firmly in the salmon pink camp (so to speak) but also the super smart vanilla one.

In design generally, I just prefer the "less is more" approach myself. I'm not a fan of fuss or clutter which is how I view that particular top.

I'd imagine the kids would go for a top like that and maybe the older generation would go for the more standard home top.

Think this is a sound move. The Nike kits were nothing grand. Just some generic design with a cartoon badge and massive cuffs on the sleeves. Like the previous Umbros and even the Sportif Kits were decent.
