Just wait until they hear that those will be the actual colours of the England flag from 2026.

To be fair, if you are happy to pay £125 for a shirt then Nike probably believed you would also be happy with the poncing about with the flag.

I agree boycott for the cost alone.
Though, I honestly don’t understand why they needed to do that, as it’s not now our flag on the shirt.

Nike trying to be clever with a gimmick and the FA being their usual stupid selves in not anticipating the backlash. A flag is a flag - you don't mess with it. There's a simple solution - don't buy the shirt. I really hope there's a big boycott, so that Nike take a serious financial hit. It would serve them right.

I'm less bothered by the colours and more irked by the cost.
£130? Really?
Out of touch in every respect.

One man's "poncing about" is another man's "playful update".
Reckon yours is the more accurate description.

As the euros are in June perhaps they should have done the flag in pride colours?

Except for the countless times it's already been done
The meltdown over this has been absolutely hilarious
Nonetheless, as Phil says it should be boycotted on the basis of the ludicrous price alone

It's OK, no need to panic. It's only £125, you can save a fiver

It’s only the authentic one that costs £125, you can get a replica for a bargain £85!
Is the £125 one made of silk ?
(Lovely and cool in warm weather)
From another thread, I'm not the only one unwilling to pay anything like those amounts for sweaty polyester.
How much do they cost to make ?
£5 ???

Really funny that people are losing their minds over the flag. Way worse is the astronomical price tag.
I'm quite happy with not fucking around with flags on football shirts as a point of principle - makes things simpler. But if your problem with it is politicisation then let's keep poppies off it too eh
