In 2006, Manchester United unveiled a new 3rd shirt which reverted back to the traditional blue that United fans are used to seeing on their 3rd kit. The shirt is near identical to the 2005 away shirt. The only major difference is that the sponsor has changed from Vodaphone (2005 shirt) to AIG (2006 shirt).
The shirt is predominately blue with a thin red strip running from either side of the collar to the shoulders. Manufacturers Nike have placed their white logo in the top right of the shirt whilst the club badge is just below in the centre of the shirt. Sponsors AIG are placed in the centre of the shirt in a white typeface. The edges of the sleeves and the bottom corners of the shirt contain a red triangle.
