Team kits

The team kits for the 2010–11 season are produced by Nike. The home kit was revealed on 24 July 2011. This kit is a reinterpretation of the traditional blue and white stripes in order to guarantee a 3D effect. The away kit is orange for the first time since the 2005-06 season, and was revealed on 18 July 2011. Both kits were made entirely from polyester. This environmentally-friendly move see each shirt made from up to eight recycled plastic bottles.[1][2]
