Photographs of Birmingham City’s away shirt for the 2010-11 season have been leaked on the Internet.
Designed and manufactured by Xtep, the Chinese company that has secured an exclusive five year deal with Birmingham City, the new away shirt is white with blue trim and features a traditional v-neck collar.
Birmingham City will be the first club in the Premier League to wear a shirt manufactured by a Chinese sportswear company.

Whilst the content is accurate that xtep are producing the kit this will not be the away shirt next year.
The picture was taken prior to the ‘vote’ for the new kit next year and thus was mocked up for the purpose of the photo shoot with xtep.
The club have announced that the kit will be an mirror immage in terms of colour to the agreed home shirt (winner is kit D)

Bluenose_68 is in fact wrong.
These pictures were taken just five days ago during a PR event in China for Blues’ pre-season tour of Beijing and Hong Kong.
This IS our away kit and from what we can see, it looks decent enough!
Look forward to the full reveal!
We shall see- when the released the results of the kit vote they stated that it was a mirror image of the chosen home kit
They also said the kit would be either yellow or blue.
It is the new 2010/11 shirt as confirmed by the club website today in the article about Nikola Zigic.
