This week the English football team were promoted a place in the FIFA world rankings, and now find themselves rated the 6th best team in the world. Some may disagree, but after two impressive games in the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign, others would argue it is an accolade well deserved. Regardless, what a great time to support football and encourage your country – by buying yourself some memorabilia such as an England jacket! The England Anthem jacket is a great top, with style and comfort that won’t be matched by another sports jersey.

If you’re looking for something a little more original, let’s take a trip down memory lane and back to the only English triumph in 1966. Sir Alf Ramsey was the manager of the team back then, and masterminded the World Cup glory, so why not get yourself an Umbro Ramsey 1966 jacket. This type of vintage sports clothing has proven very popular in recent years, and the trend looks set to continue. This dark blue jacket is a fond reminder of the greatest time in English football history, and can be worn with real pride!

If you’re looking for something you can wear as you have a kick-about with friends or in the warmth of your own home, then surely a jacket isn’t necessary. The perfect solution would be a 2010 England shirt – the kit that the players are wearing for the current campaign. It’s a great shirt which combines the original look with modern style – great to wear out and about with friends, playing sports or when you’re watching the games!
