Here’s the first photo of what the new Manchester United uniforms (or “kits” as the footballers call them) will look like next year.
Pretty sharp. Digging the throw-back white collars. I would probably prefer white socks though.
For those who don’t know, the English soccer powerhouse used to be sponsored by AIG, but that contract ran out and — wouldn’t you know it — AIG didn’t exactly have a ton of surplus money lying around to throw at foreign soccer teams. But based on its recent $5 billion purchase of health care consultancy Hewitt Associates, it’s pretty clear that Aon does. I did an interview with one of the company’s PR reps a few weeks ago if you want to read more about the partnership.
Additionally, here’s a video Man U put together a while back to welcome Aon to the team, so to speak.

It was great seeing them play their first game in the new kit in Toronto. We were proud to wear our new shirts in the stands.
