Best ever umbro city shirt

[Sven's Fluffer]

Narrrrr,

this one was the muts nuts (and I was really hoping they would reissue a version).

Nobody else feeling the love for this one? I feel so lonely.

It's got a lot going for it.... it's blue with white colar and I like the retro badge, but it's just not a nice as recent blue with white colar.

The ultimate shirt IMO is this one.... obviously pre Umbro

Actually I think all the shirts from 1924 - Kappa would have been Umbro so the Colin Bell one qualifies.

I'm surprised no one said last seasons one, with the check collar, the sound wave detail on the background and I think this is one of the best kits going

This one was amazing as well.

Last season's away (the red and black) is one of my all-time favourites.

Maybe it's just for sentimental reasons (Nelly, Big Mal), but I really liked that shirt, including the aleeves that ran the same way as the main body of material.

Er; I think you'll find that shirt was Umbro as well. In the late sixties/early seventies, the manufacturer's logo was rarely seen on shirts. Even the club badge was not always on the shirt. Look at some of this Nelly footage as an example;

Umbro's name is a contraction of Humphrey Brothers, who were on the City board when Albert Alexander was chairman.

Umbro made City shirts for generations, I believe.
