Its very simple really amd been addressed on here numerous times even by Mr Umbro/New Balance/Toplion/etc etc

They have (Toplion) a contract.

How long is that contract again? Remember it being something ridiculous. I actually like most of the Umbro gear, new balance was absolutely awful.

2026.

I dont mind Umbro either. Their stuff is good quality and they've a bit of originality about them. Nike & Adidas just use the same aul boring copy and paste templates these days for everyone. At least Umbro make an effort to cater for each client.

New Balance was f**king rubbish. Ive 20-30 year old Adidas and Umbro gear thats held up better than their stuff. The crests disintegrated off me hoodie and training shirt and the material is gone to sh*t.

He sure doesn't like honest constructive criticism on a top that could have been designed by a ten year old on paint shop pro.

It's new stuff alright, even has the training under the Umbro diamond like all their new stuff has.

It's about time they usually launch a new set of kits too but I can see them holding off until March for the Nations League campaign.

In fairness the current Home and Away jerseys are nice (Italia 90 rip offs in a way) and Umbro do do a unique piece or touch on a jersey for whatever club/country they produce gear for. 
I'd love adidas back myself but the contract is a hold up but both adidas and Nike have been lazy lately where nearly every club/country has the same templates. Norway away, Finland home are probably the only two that standout from the rest.
Puma awful and as others have said NewBalance are terrible
That centenary jersey could have been a lot better in terms of the neck and the crest
