What do England fans really think of the new Three Lions kit ahead of Euro 2016?

With the 2015/16 domestic campaign fast reaching its natural conclusion right in the here and now, and Euro 2016 waiting patiently on the horizon for football fans far and wide to partake in this summer, perhaps it’s time we really took a closer look at the new range of England kits and whether or not they’ll prove easy on the eye among this year’s highly anticipated international tournament…

 

Well, although the latest Three Lions strip has seemingly split public opinion in the run up to Euro 2016 this summer…

 

New England kit? Pls RT once you've voted.

…many have nonetheless expressed their sheer displeasure over Nike’s latest attempts for the England national squad…

 

Why so quiet at Wembley? England kit might have made a few feel queasy, I suppose.

Several gleaming efforts of yesteryear have subsequently cropped up in comparison with the newest releases…

 

I have to honest, I'm not sure I like the new England kit. Much prefer the classic kits.

…leaving most to second guess whether or not this kit really does the business…

 

That England kit looks like it's been confiscated from Wembley Market by trading standards

The home kit’s unmistakable red socks have nevertheless drawn a fair amount of attention of late…

 

These England players haven't worn such a random combination of shirts, shorts & socks since that time they forgot their PE kits in Year 7

…a fair amount of attention indeed!

 

Very not sure about the red socks. We should either be all white or white shirt, blue shorts & white socks. #England

So, in the end it seems as if this latest effort has clearly failed to capture the interest of English football fans in a positive manner let’s say…

 

Another hideous England football team kit tonight. Keep it simple…white shirts, dark blue shorts, white socks and a red trim.

…which is certainly putting it lightly in some cases…

 

This England kit is rotten, the red socks look ridiculous!

Maybe you just can’t beat the classics after all!
