please respond posted:If you get seen wearing under armor in Oregon you will get sighed at and maybe your car keyed, this is Nike country As a bit of a forecast of things to come for City fans, Northern Ireland got a new kit, changing from Umbro to Adidas. It's nowhere near as good as what Umbro did. I think Umbro have been consistently good in designing nice, clean shirts for a while now, while Nike have produced more utter shite than anyone else. Oh God I'm sorry Oregon don't shank me

Adidas make some great stuff. Does Nike still own Umbro?

If Oregon is Nike Country how come the Timbers wear Adidas?

One of my friends was at the under armour headquarters when they introduced spurs. He said they had the click clack guy do some chant to get them all fired up and then all the employees did a chant too. It all sounded rather embarrassing

This would be nice if it were not for the huge Fila logo on the sleeves.

In hindsight, it wasn't a great idea for Warrior to do photoshoots involving Craig Bellamy or Andy Carroll

That's a massive shame. Umbro do quality kits whereas Nike just recycles a bunch of poo poo from team to team.

From the BBC: The new deal with Nike, which lasts until 2018, brings a 60-year association with Umbro to an end. I had no idea it had been 60 years! Definite shame they're switching. I'd like to think that even Nike couldn't gently caress up an England kit, but I'm sure they'll find a way.

Got a couple of jerseys in the mail today from one of the dozens of Bornprosper offsprings, pretty happy with my purchase. Took about 10 days all up, i really wish they'd take a little care posting these things though. My package was bunched up into the shape of a ball and the shirts are creased something fierce.

Somewhat blurry camera phone pics incoming: A TINY BOX WHAT'S IN THE BOX WHAT'S IN THE BOX WHAT'S IN THE BOX I guess the players can't win medals so they're giving them to the fans instead.
