BACK TO UMBRO

Thanks Groucho, can't say I like it much

They really don't need Umbro on the sleeves, without that it's one of our nicest shirts in a long time that. Still, it's pretty nice I'll buy it at some point I suspect.

There should be no black on an Everton kit, just blue and white

While I know what you mean, I'd prefer this small black collar to the huge white sleeves.

It looked good on the '95 kit, I always thought. And I liked the blue and black socks from then too.

We've had lots of black socks through the years.

I like it. Not even sure the umbro on the sleeves will be noticible when the prem league logo is on them

I agree.

I prefer this over last years "Leicester City 1995" effort from Nike.

Even the badge looks smart on it.

So roll your eyes and move on.

You can boil anything down like that if you really want to. Football is 22 men chasing a ball. Goodison Park is a load of seats surrounding a field.

Don't be pedantic. This is supposed to cost £50 and thousands will buy it because it is the official Everton kit. Everything is made by Filipino children for pennies anyway, but this is really taking the piss. The least they could do is put some element of design into it. It looks like it's made by bloody Fruit of the Loom...

Won't they put Chang Soda on the kids kit? edit, just checked this years and no.

Chang Soda sounds like a criminal boss from the far east.

Sometimes simple and understated it best though.

I think it's decent.

I look forward to seeing the proper reveal later on, but from the leaks I suspect that I like it very much.

Do fruit of the loom write Umbro all over their stuff now?

So you don't have an appreciation for simplicity, that's fine. I'm not blaming you for that.

Why the wait to release the kit on the official site today are we trying to get our first signing done to release a double whammy of new kit and new player?
