Nike to unveal new England kit this week

Why an almost black dark gray for the away strip? Are they hoping that they'll be able to force the All Blacks to wear their away shirt so as to minimise the AB intimidation factor? Because I don't think that it'll work that way...
 
Doubt it, as England will wear white and they'll wear black,
The only time this'll get a runout is against Argentina or Fiji (think they're the only two with white shirts?)
 
Not a fan, the dark parts on the arms just look out of place. Should have stuck with the one we had before.
 
I quite like it myself. Maybe not as much as the plain white, but it looks good IMO.

Certainly better then the Red Swoosh or the Arsenal shirt.
 
home kit looks like ****. just change for the sake of change, which is also **** as a concept. worst england kit in the last 20 year i reckon (including the red swoosh)
 
I think it's cack! For one the collar looks like an afterthought, much prefer the last one if they're not going to have anything like a traditional collar or a granddad collar. Two, the trim is supposed to represent the thorns on the English rose. Bolox, the thorns and the stem on the rose are green! That to me looks suspiciously like the colour of the Nike logo! And thirdly the socks should be navy blue with white turnovers. End of rant!
