Man United Reveal 2013/14 Nike Away Kit
Another Gingham Style Design For Moyes' Men.


 

Manchester United have revealed their new Nike away kit for the 2013/14 season. The new away shirt was unveiled during the club s pre-season tour in Japan and features the gingham check used on last season s home shirt with a bigger, bolder design. Gingham style is back.

After the launch of the new home kit United fans thought they'd seen the back of the design, but the new away shirt has been brutally beaten with the Gingham stick again. It may have received a lot of 'tea towel' jibes last season but gingham returns to represent the city s proud industrial heritage.



The shirt features large black and midnight navy gingham checks, the collar is a black round neck and on the back of shirt, on the neck, is a white woven devil from the United club crest. The club crest at the heart of the jersey is an embroidered monochromatic midnight navy and white.




The new away shorts are midnight navy with a thin navy blue stripe on the hem at the back while the new away socks are navy blue with a white stripe between two black stripes, with the traditional United bar design. United have a long history of wearing blue kits dating back as far as 1902 and famously worn by Matt Busby s men to lift the European Cup at Wembley in 1968.





United's first chance to wear the new away kit in a Premier League game will be their league opener at Swansea on 17 August, failing that it'll definitely be on show when they travel to Anfield on 1 September. Controversial design visually, but the story behind it is a nice touch. We don't know whether to feel angry or confused... or both.



The new Nike Manchester United away shirt is available from selected online stockists including Pro-Direct Soccer. Let us know what you think of it.
