Everton complete their replica collection for the 2019/20 season as Umbro unveil the club's new 3rd shirt in a sleek dark navy design. Umbro have been widely commended for their exquisite 19/20 designs and the Everton 3rd shirt is typically understated and stylish.
The third strip draws influence from the ‘football smart’ trend, with football shirts becoming part of fans’ cause, streetwear and lifestyle wear. The contemporary design and dark colours lend themselves nicely to an off-pitch scene, and the stylised V neckline is a subtle addition. The drop-hems are a modern twist on kit collars from the 90s and ‘dazzling blue’ coloured stripes feature on the front neck as well as highlighted on the crest and sponsor detailing.
The shirt is completed by ribbed sleeves, customised Umbro shattered diamonds across the shoulder panels and an ‘EFC’ signature on the back of the neck, a feature from the Club’s 1992/93 shirt which can also been seen on this season’s home and away jerseys. Accompanying the jersey, the dark navy shorts feature black contrast side panelling along with a ‘dazzling blue’ coloured crest. The socks complement the shirt and shorts and are dark navy with a black turnover.
Everton midfielder and all round handsome son of a gun Andre Gomes said: “This kit is a classic, it looks really good and I think it will give us a presence on the pitch and one that is very wearable for the fans.”
The Everton third kit joins the blue home and coral away shirts for another typically smart Umbro collection for 2019/20.
