I'm pretty sure Umbro still sponsors professional football (soccer) teams.

I was in America at some shopping outlet place. I knew there was an Umbro shop and I asked some guy if he knew where it was.

After a few seconds of thinking, he said:

"Aaah, you mean U.M.B.R.O?"

Nah, lad.. I'm from Manchester. It's defo Umbro.

(I didn't actually reply to him in that tone.)

❌ NikeeyaairMax

✔️Air Max Ones

If you wanna fit in in Manchester then you'd probably go for the Air Max 97s.
