BACK TO UMBRO

Too much white on the kit,we look like Birmingham or Leicester with excessive white.Think we should play in all blue like the reds***e have all red and Chelsea all blue, it looks more imposing. Hate to admit but Shankly got it right changing their kit from white shorts.

Like the shirt, prefer white socks. Shorts are stupid, though. Fortunately it's barely noticeable if you don't tuck in the shirt.

I have always said yellow shirt and blue shorts is our away. But I do like that training top.
I have the feeling we are going to get a couple more cracking shirts and woeful shorts to come...

If they receive enough horrified feedback on the home kit shorts they might scrap any ideas of launching similar for the away kits...although I wouldn't bet on it. Everton just take what they're given and dont fight for the fans' wishes.

But yeah crap shorts, Martinez out!!!!!!!!!!!

That training top would seriously make an awesome away or 3rd shirt

As well as on the training kit, the salmon / navy has popped up on some of the tracky tops and other traning gear which might suggest it will be the away / 3rd colours. Could we see a navy shirt with salmon sash or vice versa? Maybe a salmon and navy stripes similar to the 93/94 kit?

I hate all blue. It makes us look like a wannabe Chelsea.

I think the reverse on all one colour strips: it looks weak.

The Everton blue/white and black Danka era kit was imposing.

Mate I am seething with vengeful anger, I have literally paced the house all morning shouting profanities at the postman, next doors dogs, the two pigeons that are nesting in my tree, and the woman who collects for Barnardos.

I'm so close to going out and doing something stupid.

Umbro you have ruined my day you jarg, double diamond, meffs.

I've napalmed DW sports for having the temerity to stock very reasonably priced leisure wear from these infidels.

Sports Direct is next.

If it's a training gear top I doubt the club would want to launch a similar second or third top like it. The training top would be a cheaper alternative and would be used as a surrogate away top by most.

We've got to have white shorts, we look good in blue or white socks as long as the shirt is royal blue and the shorts are white.

For me, the only shirt sponsors I like are NEC and Chang..maybe it's cos I'm so used to them, but looking at the Keijian / One 2 One / Danka shirts now look all bad cos of the sponsors logos don't look right

Everton play in a blue shirt, white shorts and white socks.

We're not Chelsea and if Birmingham or Leicester or any other no mark club want to copy us then that's up to them.

If every club agreed to get rid of those sponsors off their shirts they'd be doing everyone a favour. It's just grafitti as far as I'm concerned. Commercial scribble scrawled over what are community flags in essence.

Horrible spivs.

I'm suggesting colour themes. Last season we had purple training gear which was consistent with the white and purple kit. I reckon salmon and navy will feature in one of the away kits
