Shoppers can purchase the new England shirt from Kitbag for £30.15 with the promo code WINNER. The shirt features a “playful update” to the St George’s Cross on the back collar with navy, light blue, and purple colors. This change has drawn criticism from some fans and high-profile figures. The FA explained that the altered colors pay tribute to the classic color scheme of England’s 1966 World Cup-winning squad’s training gear.
Despite the new design, some fans have been purchasing a replica of an England shirt from a previous tournament to support their team through the group stages. The stylish blue shirt was produced specifically for Italia 90 but was only worn once in an official match against Turkey in 1991. It became a staple training kit throughout the tournament and holds sentimental value for many fans. The Three Lions secured their spot in the European tournament which kicks off in Germany in June after topping their Group C qualifying group above teams like Italy and Ukraine.
