Kitbag Anticipate Unveiling of New Manchester United Shirt

MANCHESTER, England, July 16 /PRNewswire/ -- To say that the release of a new Manchester United kit is widely anticipated is something of an understatement. The Red Devils are, after all, the best supported team in the world and an estimated 330 million fans worldwide are sure to be eagerly awaiting what will, for many, be an automatic addition to their wardrobes.

The new Manchester United shirt, which is already available for pre order from kitbag.com, is launched on the 15th July in Chicago and has already attracted plenty of column inches, even whilst the actual design has remained closely guarded.

The new kit made its public debut on the 12th July - three days before the official launch - when United's reserve team sported it during their 4-0 defeat of Curzon Ashton. However, whilst eagle eyed fans have now had a chance to cast their eye over the stylish new design they'll have to wait until Thursday's official unveiling before they can get their hands on it.

The new shirt design from Nike will feature an all new sponsor in Aon, a world leading risk management company, with whom United have signed a record breaking four year sponsorship deal said to be worth in the region of 80 million pounds Sterling.  

The shirt itself is notable for utilising Nike's new 'Dri-Fit' technology which the sportswear giant claims sets a new standard in comfort and breathability by actually pulling sweat away from the body and transferring it to the fabric surface.

For fans that are keen to jump the queue the shirt is already available for pre order from leading online sportswear retailer Kitbag.
