The new England kit was unveiled with great fanfare on Saturday as the national team thumped Slovakia 4-0 at Wembley. Opinions on it vary - some like the clean styling and lack of fuss, some think - however hard Rio Ferdinand stares in the promotional shots - it looks like a 10-year-old's PE Kit.
Either way, it's the shirt that England will wear to the 2010 World Cup finals, which it looks very much like England will be travelling to, topping their group with a 100 per cent record as they do.
And it's the shirt that in years to come, if England should win the World Cup collectors like us will be getting signed by the heroes of the hour.
So which is your favourite England shirt? Here are Icons' favourites:
5. The 2006 version. The one David Beckham scored his free-kick against Greece in. Subtle red cross. Nice.
4. The 1982 Admiral version. Looked perfect with a perm.
3. The 1996 version. No red on this design, but it evokes an incredible summer when football came home.
2. The 1990 umbro version, which Gazza wiped his tears on.
1. The classic red 1966 England shirt. For obvious reasons really.
