New release: the 11-12 Manchester City away kit & shirt. Made by Umbro, it looks wonderful as they got back the red and black stripes that the City shirts used to sport in 1969 and 1970 when the club won the European Cup Winners Cup, FA Cup and League Cup. Not sure how much Mancini likes it as you can’t but think of AC Milan when looking at it while being clueless about City’s history – like me. What’s important though is for City fans to enjoy it. It’s on pre-order right now. Shipping will being June 23rd 2011 in the UK and early June 2011 in the US. You can buy it from Kitbag or World Soccer Shop. Here are the most important items:

Another London based club released their new home kit for the 11-12 season. Keeping up with the same classic, red and white design, Arsenal will don this while trying one more time to get their hands on the Premier League title. The major changes are at the collar, which is red instead of white, and the logo which was made to look more like the initial one due to the clubs’ upcoming 125 years anniversary. On top of that, the shorts are black. You can buy the kit on Kitbag. It will start shipping on June 9th 2011. Here are the most important kit items:

You can pre-order/buy the kit from Kitbag, UKSoccerShop and World Soccer Shop.
