Umbro have just announced that their shareholders have agreed a £295m takeover by Nike. Will post a link when it becomes available.
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.
