Umbro Announces Long-Term Partnership with Fabio Capello
Capello’s vision for the England team and his football philosophy are closely matched to that of what the Umbro Brand encompasses. It is his belief that if a team looks and feels confident on the pitch, their performance will be positively impacted.
“I’ve chosen to work with Umbro because they are a company full of vitality,” says Fabio Capello. “Working with Umbro means working with a team of dedicated professionals, motivated by constant research and the desire to be a leading company of the highest level.”
In this new ambassador role, Capello will continue to work closely with the Umbro brand, as he did leading up to the launch of our marvelous new kit where he played a pivotal role by providing constant input on the development and design. Capello is actually the first England manager since Alf Ramsay to have a role in the direction of the new England kit!
Capello will be wearing the Umbro Speciali boot and all relevant Umbro apparel when on England duty. This includes a cashmere coat made by the tailor who worked on the new England kit, Charlie Allen.
I hope that Mr Capello likes our ‘England inspired’ t-shirts!
