it's also noon in Hong Kong so they'll probably arrange some sort of launch event after the morning training session.

I think I saw my first snide one on Saturday afternoon. It could've been real, though, 'cos the girl had an American accent.

Oops - someone 'accidentally' forgot to cover the window!! Bit of pre-launch publicity...

I think it'd look smarter in just black, rather than 2-tone. Although the home looks better in the flesh than the pics.

With proper sewn in badges all 3 shirts would have been our best ever imo.But these iron on look badges really make the shirts look 2nd rate.

I like it, glad they went with gold lettering instead of white.

They would have been better than they are now but not best ever, the first Umbro we had from the last batch was the best (and the dark blue one too most recently) and the quality of the last lot were superior imho.

Just doesn't float my boat these sadly, bit of a let down.

I have to say while the 1st and 2nd umbro batch were my all time favs, the last two seasons were a disappointment.

The red and black caught every bit of fluff and looked shit after the 1st wash.

Last season annoyed me as my away fit tighter than the home in the same size.

Also the last two home kits were good, but not a patch on 09/10

The third one was the same from last season, destroyed after a week and looked like it was 10 years old from catching fluff, essentially two jerseys ruined for me!

I dont like this years away as Piccs said i think they forget the red stripe ;)

Oh and I forgot the 1st umbro batch were that new material reserved for us and England. Only kit I've ever confortably played in with no top underneath and then for some reason they buggered it off and went back to that shiny crap on inside that sticks and chafes.

I think the home kit looks decent on the players but they look very poor quality material compared to umbro.The main problem for me is the massive stick on badges.What a stupid move by Nike to slap them on to our kits.In my opinion they had the chance to make a good first impression with these kits but they fell well short of expectations.I might by a bit of merchandise but not going near the kits, i don't see them selling well at all.
