CURTIS Davies, Nigel Quashie and Tomasz Kuszczak prove they're diamond geezers as they offer fans a tiny, first glimpse of Albion's new UMBRO home shirt.

The full kit will be officially unveiled first on Albion World and at www.wba.co.uk on Thursday, June 1 before going on sale exactly a fortnight later on Thursday, June 15.

But you don't need to wait until either of these dates to reserve one of the eagerly-awaited UMBRO designs.

You can pre-order the new home shirt, and red goalkeeper's jersey, NOW at our online club shop (click here) or by visiting the Baggies' two club shops, at The Hawthorns and Merry Hill Centre.

Fans are reminded the Hawthorns club shop has been temporarily relocated in the Halfords Lane Stand's media lounge while the refurbishment of the East Stand store is carried out.

The media lounge can be accessed via the matchday media entrance, which is situated between the Birmingham Road End and the Halfords Lane Stand's glass doors.

Supporters who pre-order will be the first to get their hands on the new shirt. That's because they will be posted out to arrive on Wednesday, June 14 - the day before the official launch date.

The new home shirt and goalkeeper's jersey - ONLY available from Albion's online, Hawthorns and Merry Hill club shops - will both retail at £40 adults and £30 juniors.

The home design's key features include the welcome return of stripes on the back of the shirt plus the new club crest.

The shirt launch will coincide with the re-opening of the new-look East Stand club shop.

The store is currently undergoing major refurbishment work which will vastly enhance supporters' shopping experience.

Albion signed up England kit manufacturers UMBRO on an initial two-year deal last month.

UMBRO will be the official supplier of the Baggies' playing and training kit for the 2006/07 and 2007/08 seasons.

The exciting new deal marks the renewal of the successful partnership the two brands enjoyed during Albion's most recent heydays in the late seventies and early eighties.
