BACK TO UMBRO

[andybaker]

On the assumption you're being serious ...

And that shows what exactly? Are we missing a trick in recruiting younger fans? Does it mean that if Tranmere released their kit b4 the RS then they would increase their younger fan base ? No !

Why not rush the kit through and get it out earlier than possible so kids can wear it in the street.

Whilst July is an improvement on last years debacle, when youve got two kids who want kits and can see LFC kits in the street, they are not of course going to be wearing anything other than EFC kits...so they want an explanation and what do you say?

Sorry, but July is a piss take for a kit release. Its a month earlier than last time. Its all the kids want to wear and last time, the summer was virtually done and dusted when our kit arrives. As a parent, id like a bit more value for money if im honest. The third kit last season came out in September...when do kids wear that? I dont buy the kits anymore, i buy them for the boys.

When i say we have gone backwards...20 years ago we had a kit deal in place that released kits in may...last year that was august, this year its July, that to me isnt progress thats the club regressing as we get pushed further and further down the pecking order and suppliers look after the bigger clubs.

Moving to Umbro was supposed to solve that. It hasnt as far as i can see. Ive already bought Brazil kits and Holland kits to keep the boys happy...thats about £140 I wont be spending at Everton 1

But you have to remember that we haven't moved to Umbro yet. We're still under the Nike contract.

Next summer, hopefully, we'll ready to go by May.

Life is full of disappointments, especially as an Evertonian. The sooner the kids learn, the better for them in the long run.

Gripe and moan all ya want, were still under contract with Nike as of now. Umbro can't release it until that's finished.

I'd love a blue and white home shirt - stating the obvious there. Just royal blue with white piping around the neck.
Yellow and Blue away shirt, this season's was boss
White/Black third.

if the umbro deal starts on 1st june what kit will everton ladies be playing in in their FA cup final on that same day?

 

[stevo27]

Not being funny but who gives a crap if Liverpool have got a kit out already? Some bad inferiority complexes on here. Rather have a kit maker put 100% into giving us a kit to remember than lazy designs like Warrior give them

 

[andybaker]

how has it got anything to do with inferiority complexes? Its about having a 4 and 6 year old who pester the [Poor language removed] out of you for a new kit and have to wait virtually the whole summer (last season) to get a kit! When all their mates have 2/3 LFC kits.

I think our kit deals are shocking and tbh, the 3rd kit last season came out middle of sept...what adults can even buy them for holidays in the summer when its just become autumn

I hope thats not the kit, i hate the stripes around the sleeves on the current kit.

I think it was more to do with us being up against each other and both qualifying for europe and going to Umbro tbh.

Here's a selection of New Umbro Kits

new Peru was shown a couple of days ago

the link shows a selection of collar types

I like the style of The Peru 1 out of those.

This has just popped up on my twitter feed

Looks very much like one of those ones at the bottom. Don't like the collar though, plus wasn't the rumour that its black trim?

Edit: plus that badge looks huge

 

[DanEFC92]

Awful, that.

 

[orchard]

better than I was expecting lids

 

[snipellis11]

Not keen on that tbh, don't like the sleeves or the collar, just doesn't look right.

Looks very much like one of hose ones at the bottom. Don't like the collar though, plus wasn't the rumour that its black trim?
