It was revealed the white home strip will honour England’s first-ever tournament team in 1984
The Nike kits will then be available for supporters to purchase from the week beginning June 5.
It was announced the shirts were inspired by Wembley Stadium, with the iconic venue celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, while it also holds the two record attendances for women’s football matches – set by recent England games.
England’s home kit will be a plain-white shirt, with blue details and blue shorts, which is also a way for the Lionesses to pay homage to the kit worn by the Women’s team at Euro 1984 – the country’s first-ever team for a major tournament.
The away strip is the first time the team will have worn blue and it possesses a geometric pattern, with slightly lighter and darker blues present.
However, not all supporters were loving the kits as one simply said: ‘Plain… very plain…’
Another added: ‘Blue shirt is okay but the white is very plain boring and simple, not impressed to be honest.’
A further supporter quipped: ‘Not a fan. Same as the men’s. Lazy design.’
Others were more positive, but the plain-white home kit received criticism as one said: ‘Love the light lyue. Shades of Italy 90 but the home shirt looks like a USA copy.’
