It is seen to be the idle for player that likes his sleeves long or his shorts short. But will it make a difference? Does a well fitting outfit make a successful team?
There are practical improvements to the new strip from a goalkeeper's perspective. The shirt is cut shorter at the sleeve so it doesn't roll over and build up around the glove that can cause irritation and lapses in concentration.
The 100% win record is certainly a strong positive of the new kit. The 4-0 win over Slovakia and the 2-1 against the Ukraine has given the new strip a good start to it's time with the England team.
The new kit does have a sense of nostalgia about it and I believe that it is a good idea to introduce new ideas and philosophy into the england team.
I'm getting this because there was a feature in GQ about it.
