Fashion Faux Pas: No One Wants To Be England’s Goalkeeper.

   

England, now famously, unleashed their World Cup away kit – perhaps unknowingly – through rock band Kasabian in Paris. There’s a French Connection UK joke in here somewhere, but we’ll pass.

Continuing with the retro is the new future fashion theme, England have gone back to the future with this ode to a 1930’s widow’s faded sun dress. The hideousness of the yellow is on par with Chelsea’s old day-glo kits, just on the opposite end of the yellow spectrum.

Now Fabio Capello must go from “who to play?” to “who will play in this?”.

    I don’t get all the negativity surrounding the new away kit. I don’t mind it. In fact I quite like both the home and away kit. It’s very different some everyone else’s. I would – and will – proudly wear both.
