For a GB kit, there doesn't seem like a lot of red confused

It looks ridiculous. They haven't even got the national colours right.

why the lack of red in the flag.
I know they are trying to be different... but they are supposed to be showing off our flag.

Not sure that light blue is in the Union Jack confused Apart from that, not too bad but the light blue should be red IMO.

Isn't that the point of the red collars and other detail?

eta - blokey on the left seems to have a thing for dwarves.

That's a fking disgrace!!! Did the brief tell them to try and airbrush out the fact that England is part of Great Britain, or was that the designer's own initiative?

I quite like it, my least favourite is probably the running vest on the far right, looks the least finished IMO.

As for messing with the flag? I could care less, but it would need conscious effort that I'm not willing to put in - after the Scotland Salmon Pink football shirt a few years ago, it will take more than missing out on a bit of red to bother me.

That is awful, the lack of red makes it look washed out and weak.

Got to agree with the haterz here, fking with the flag was a bloody silly idea.

Oh and its taken 2 years to design, maybe Stella lost her red crayon?

What's with the X Factor logo positioned around his stomach? hehe

As a design, I think it looks good. However as a kit for the Olympics, like others have said, it's a shame our flag is not shown in the correct colours. Why is blue so prominent throughout?
