Man Utd Unveil New Home Kit
United's new home kit for the 2009/10 campaign has been officially unveiled.
The red kit, celebrates 100 years of Old Trafford with a large chevron across the chest, reflecting the design of the shirts worn by United when the stadium first opened during the 1909/10 season.
The back of the shirt has an engineered mesh, which is a series of small chevrons, a performance feature to offer the players even greater ventilation during games. Inside the black round-neck collar is a high quality woven label in red, white and black, while engineered into the side seam is a small label that reads ‘The Theatre of Dreams Since 1910.’
The players will don the kit for the first time during their pre-season tour of Asia next month.
