It’s the National flag, you can’t just change the colours

The cost is insane too

posted on 22/3/24

it just proves that these Nike designers have no taste or class at all, to say of respect !

Hopefully lots of people will NOT buy it ,hit them in the pocket then they might see the folly of their ways.

I won't be buying it because I can't afford it! I don't agree with the changing of the flag even if I'm not that bothered.

It's horrendous, just like the price.

Do people really care about changing the colour of the flag for a kit?

posted on 22/3/24

This will probably cost NIKE £Millions !

Cannot believe so many people are against diversity. There are more colours than red and white. All colours are equal.

Surely the national flag can identify as something different if Nike chooses, and even if Nike are in alone in this, their rights, as a minority are of the same, if not greater importance than the masses

The cost is mental, can almost guarantee that the people making the shirts are on poverty wages too.

Why?

It is something called National Pride.

Have any other countries done anything similar if their flag is on their kit ?
It might not be a popular idea

It's the incompetent FA who have greenlit this.

Is it any wonder this useless organisation never gets the national team to win anything when they keep make rubbish decisions all the time, like this?

Because it's not the English flag unless it's a red cross on white background.

Give the contract back to Umbro.

Oh no, I can only imagine the stress and anxiety this must have caused you.

it’s for the England team hence the English flag

I thought there was no nation of English only British

Kit is great. The flag drama is BS. The Price is a joke.

Why have they changed the colours of our national flag anyway? Does anyone know? Literally first I’m seeing of this

In a post on X on 18 March, Nike described the redesigned flag as "a playful update to the cross of St George" which "appears on the collar to unite and inspire". A Nike spokesperson told media outlets: "The England 2024 Home kit disrupts history with a modern take on a classic.

Just a playful update. Some people don't like change butfairplay to Nike for trying something new. The English flag has been used by far right idiots and they have tarnished it somewhat.

I'm sure Nike will correct it on the next kit. People are far too outraged now adays over small details.

It’s the colours of the 66 training kit apparently.

Even Rishi hates it and he could afford to buy one.

This is a question for not only the English but other nations as well, what gives these jumped up yankee doodles the right ?
They can play around with their own flag all they want if they like,but I'm sure that their would be an outcry especially from the loony Trumpsters and their idiotic following !

Doesn’t seem to be a reason given there tbf lol just that they wanted to do it and Therefore did. Also wouldn’t say fair play to Nike for trying something new, anyone can change a few colours. It’s just random.
I’m sure people will get over it though and not sure why people are so upset. Just all seems a bit random to me

I don’t really care tbh, but the only thing I would highlight concern is that a company or business seems to be dictating what a nation should do. Unless it was approved then not much to see here imo.
