Everton have revealed their new home kit for the 2018/19 season.
The strip will be worn for the first time when the Blues take on Southampton on Saturday evening in their final home came of the current campaign.
Umbro’s iconic diamond graphic has been incorporated into the new sleeves as part of a design in a nod to the club’s memorable 1970s kits.
Everton captain Phil Jagielka said: “This kit is a subtle nod to Everton’s traditions and is one that all the players will wear proudly on Saturday and for the season to come as we look to shape the club’s future.
“When you pull on an Everton shirt you are representing Evertonians everywhere, and the fact that fans were consulted on what they wanted for this kit makes it extra special.”
Supporter input was a key factor in the process of creating a new kit with over 15 months of consultation seeing a more traditional design favoured.
Gary Evans, chair of the Everton Fans’ Forum, said: “The lengths that Umbro have gone to listen to the feedback of fans is impressive and has resulted in what we believe is a really strong design for next season.
“As a fan you always look forward to the reveal of a new kit and this one doesn’t disappoint. This is a shirt that Evertonians will be proud to wear.”
The new Everton 2018/19 home kit is available to pre-order now for adults, juniors, infants and babies and will be on sale from Saturday, May 5 from EvertonDirect.com.
