I bought two packages of the women’s umbro boy shorts style underwear brought them home wash them, put them on the next morning spent all day uncomfortable feeling like something was poking me I got home, took them off to look at them, and there was a broken off sewing needle in them. I have emailed the company and yet to get anything back. I also have called and yet to get a return call.

I returned at order 2 weeks ago and emailed a week later inquiring about the status of my return. For the 0ast week I have not heard back from the customer care group I have checked to make sure the return has been received and I have checked my spam…nothing. Please help with getting someone from the customer service email team to respond.

I have a photograph of my college soccer team in 1966 wearing UMBRO football shirts’
Anyway I have designed a football logo that has been trade marked in several countries including England and wondered if you had any interest in adding this to your sports equipment design.
The logo is aimed at all football players from age 4 on up and it makes a statement that is Football (Soccer) to a “T”.
If interested you can contact me at the email address attached.
