Official sponsors Nike have released two new kits for the men’s squad to wear as they bid to go one better after their Euro 2020 final defeat.

While the red away strip is much more popular than the home, England’s loyal supporters will need to cough up the cash to get their hands on it with prices rising by £10 over the last three seasons. The standard adult shirt costs £74.95, while the junior top costs £59.95, and the infants £49.95.

That is an increase on the £69.95 cost of the last two seasons’ shirts, according to the Mirror, while the one prior to that was priced at £64.99. And if fans want an actual match shirt – i.e. not a replica – they’ll have to pay £114.95.

@CZTranter95: Price for the New England kit is an absolute joke 🤣 £75? £115? Have a day off

@Foudyman: @England awesome new kit 👏 the price on the other hand is a joke!

@HanzOne: Underwhelmed by the England kit & overwhelmed with the price 😳

@Kititout1: £115 a this a joke, maybe @England can give some out to the poorest community’s because people can’t even afford to put the heating for their kids and your peddling World Cup kits at this price, this is shocking

@bethellwwfc: Possibly the worst England kit with a price range of £75-£115 😂😂😂

@JWMTFC: £75 for that hahahahaha

@JamesBottrill: I’m not overly fond of the design, it’s not bad (not particularly good either), the price of these shirts though is absolutely ludicrous. £60 for kids & £75 for adults, surely you can do it for half that and double the sales? 🤷🏻‍♂️💷

@ikeiscool1986: £75 do one 😠

@Lee8baldwin: Im sorry £60 for a kid to wear there nations shirt 🤢🤢🤢

@gazswain: 115 notes for that. It’s piss poor.

@HorsHorsfield: Not at those prices!! £60 for a kids shirt! I’m afraid completely out of touch with the times we live in and £115 for a adults!!

@StealthComic: The country’s in a cost of living crisis and you’re charging over 70 quid for a home shirt. You should be ashamed of yourselves

@BL10CBL: Alot of people worried about a cost of living crisis and you bring this for £115??? 👀

@Chairman_G: 75 quid each? Do you think that’s fair?

@53BFC53: £75 for a tie-dye monstrosity, no thanks. Can we please bin off Nike and their awful kits. 👎🏼

@AndyMullaney: Disgraceful prices for kids for worst home kit ever produced

@TommyRascalG: Anyone who buys this is a disgrace. Hopefully sales are low and they scrap it in time for the World Cup 💩

@BobbyTutton: @England Cost of living hampering millions and you want £115 for an England shirt and £60 for a child’s shirt…..are you feeling ok? Out of touch!!

@joemorgan2000: £75 for the shirt and £38 for the shorts 😂😂😂 football for the people my arse. Nice shirt though

@ftfcrob: £75 you’re taking the absolute piss there

@novicerne: Just wait 30-35 years and they’ll stick it in the “retro” section for 40 quid

@jamrobertspics: Can get on board with this design but the price point is unbelievably out of sync with the current cost of living crisis. No football shirt should cost what is effectively a full days wage for some. It’s no coincidence the retro market has boomed when it comes to tournaments.
