Blues To Honour Dixie On New Home Shirts
Everton’s home shirts for the 2017/18 season will include a new motif celebrating the career of Dixie Dean, thanks to a fan-led initiative.
The Club’s greatest goalscorer, who famously netted a record 60 league goals in one season, will have his legacy continued as the Blues sport his silhouette on the back of their shirt collars in all competitions.
Fans were given the chance to shape the new home shirt after Everton’s kit manufacturer, Umbro, took the opportunity to hand over an element of the design process to supporters. The Everton Fans’ Forum then asked Toffees to come up with ideas which subtly celebrated their Club.
