    Our Umbro rep was in the store yesterday and told us about the share-holders meeting they were having.

    They assume that nothing major will change, other than Nike helping Umbro figure out how to run a company properly. England will stay in Umbro, shoe designs, etc., wil stay the same, but customer service and stuff will improve.

    Umbro has some AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! footwear coming out this spring/summer. Honestly it deserves it's own sticky. I'll post more info as it comes to me.
