NEW WALES HOME KIT TAILORED BY UMBRO

Umbro and the Welsh FA have announced a new two year collaboration as the team looks to qualify for the 2012 UEFA European Championships. Umbro and the Welsh national team last worked together almost 20 years ago but now the players’ kit will once again be Tailored by Umbro.

The new kit will be worn for the first time in tonight’s international friendly against Luxemburg in Llanelli.

In the traditional Welsh red, the shirt features the iconic Welsh crest embroidered on the chest. The Umbro logo, in a bright yellow, is drawn from the colours featured within the national badge of honour.

Crafted from light and breathable fabric, the shirt also features a soft v-neck providing comfort, raglan sleeves made from one piece of fabric aiding articulation and a breathable mesh fabric under the arms. On the hem of the shirt, an embroidered badge unique to each team features the  Welsh flag complete with red dragon.

Completing the kit are white shorts and socks which feature eye-catching red and white hoops.
