Show Your City: the new Manchester City 2012 home shirt is sent into space

To celebrate the launch of the new Manchester City football kits, Umbro and the club asked fans to Show Your City and come up with some interesting, unusual and exciting ways to reveal the new MCFC strips. Thankfully, City's fans didn't disappoint us. Dale Hudson, a lifelong Manchester City fan, is one of our Show Your City winners, after he came up with the idea of using a special balloon to launch the new Manchester City home shirt into space. We went to see Dale at his home in Rossendale to chat about his love for City and to capture the event itself.

In the video above, you can see the moment when Dale's idea became a reality and the new Manchester City home shirt was launched into space - a new frontier for football shirts and for Manchester's finest!

Throughout this week, we're going to be highlighting the other great ideas that we picked out as winners of our Show Your City competition, as we celebrate the club's new kits and look forward to their return to action as reigning Premier League champions. Both the Manchester City home and away kits are now available to pre-order here on the Umbro website.
