England have unveiled their new Euro 2016 home and away kits ahead of the summer Euro Championships in France.
The new Nike England kit, features a classic white English body, light blue sleeves, and a single royal blue strip that runs the length of the shirt.
The 2016 Euro England home kit socks are red in colour, and replicate the look of the English team that beat Brazil 2-0 in the Maracana in 1984.
The Euro 2016 England away kit evokes memories of England’s greatest ever achievement in world football; the kit honours the 50th anniversary of 1966 World Cup victory at Wembley.
“England have had great moments in red over the years,” Nike creative director Martin Lotti said.
“Our design team have risen to the challenge of integrating references to England’s footballing history with a futuristic system of performance apparel in both the home and away kits.”
The 2016 Euro kit reminds of the iconic strip worn by Billy Wright and Stanley Matthews in the 1950’s, while the red shirt is synonymous with the 1966 triumph.
