Class
Umbro’s kits have been too nice this year. Rangers 10/11 kits are some of the best I have seen.
Love the away.

Manchester Utd Kit (Finally)
After many leaks, the kit is available to buy (well July 15). They have dropped the American company, AIG, in favor of a new sponsor, AON.
It’s not a bad looking shirt at all. They wanted to go for that classic early 1970’s look. I am not usually a fan of collars, but I do like this shirt.

Fulham Home Kit
After recently announcing a new supplier (Kappa) and shirt sponsor (FxPro), the home shirt has finally been unveiled.
Very disappointing. The shirt sponsor is not centered at all, looks very plain. The kits have a nice simplicity to them (or used to), these do not look good at all. Big downgrade.

Burrda Strikes Again
Burrda is trying to make their mark in England. They have now become the official kit supplier to Leicester City.
“Leicester City have signed a highly lucrative three-year kit deal with Swiss International Sportswear Manufacturer BURRDA to supply home and away kits, together with an exclusive range of official training wear for the first team squad, the Youth Academy and for supporters.
The kit deal is the biggest in Leicester City’s history. The contract with Leicester City is BURRDA’s third UK football deal of the summer who already boast an impressive portfolio of international sports clubs in Europe and in the Middle East, providing kits for the Belgium, Kuwait and Qatar national teams.
The Club have confirmed that the fundamental design of the home kit will remain the same as last season, albeit with the already planned change of badge, to move away from the special 125 Anniversary badge used last season and now with a change of brand on the front of the shirt.
City also confirmed they were ‘close’ to securing a new shirt sponsor for 2010-11.”
Kit looks okay. Nice and simple, don’t like the collars though.

Hull City Kits
After two seasons in top flight, Hull City sees themselves back in the Championship. They now are supplied by Adidas, not Umbro.
Personally, I like last year’s kits a lot better. The aways are all white, which I typically don’t prefer. I like to see color in the away kits, and they had some decent light blue tops last year.
