It’s been almost a month since the new, Umbro tailored, City kit was officially launched and it’s probably about time we updated you on some of the burning questions concerning the shirts.

Firstly, the home kit will be available to pre-order from July 1st (yes, that’s tomorrow) from the club’s brilliant new website. General release of the shirt will be July 18th. Many have been wondering where the shirts can be purchased from and it will be through official MCFC retail outlets only. That’ll be at the stadium store, in the Arndale Centre and via the mcfc.co.uk online shop, then.

One thing many have asked about is the chest sizing of the new shirts - especially if you do intend to pre-order and give yourself a chance of getting tickets for the ‘Live from City’ gig. Knowing if you’re a straightforward S,M,L etc. won’t cut it anymore as these shirts, like England’s, are a tailored cut. But don’t worry. If getting yourself measured up is posing a little too much to think about, here’s a rough guide to sizing:

Finally, the kit launch posters have been gaining a fair bit of recognition and many are keen to get their hands on the artwork. We’ve already put the original posters up on our flickr page but now we have desktop wallpapers to offer you. Thanks to Rick for sending them to us!
