Blackburn Rovers 2016/17 Away Kit Released
Blackburn Rovers recently released their 2016/17 home kit and have now added the away kit to their range.
The Lancastrians are looking to improve on last seasons 15th place finish in the Championship and follow local rivals Burnley back into the top flight. It isn’t going to be easy if the latest predictions are anything to believe.
Rovers were relegated from the Premier League in 2012 and have rarely threatened to return since.
Premier League champions in 2005/06, it has been a painful decline in status.
BLACKBURN ROVERS 2016/17 AWAY KIT
This is the away kit Blackburn Rovers will wear on their travels:
The shirt is a unique design for Umbro. Predominantly black, there is a faux sash on the left shoulder. Comprising the colours of the club’s home kit – royal blue and white – the sash ends above the logo of primary shirt sponsor, Dafabet.
It’s an otherwise clean design from Umbro for the shirt, with the remainder of the front and back in solid black.
As with other Umbro kits launched this summer, the co-ordinates of the home ground feature on the inner collar. In this case Ewood Park takes pride of place below the motif, “ROVERS FC”.
The shorts and socks are solid black with white trim.
It’s a stylish kit which might be considered a grower. A first glance at the sash-effect elicited a less than polite response but seeing it several times, it cuts a dash and it’s rarity on kits makes it unique. Whether it’s a crowd pleaser remains to be seen.
