However the last kit had been chosen by the fans and Blades-Mad was disappointed to learn that the same would not be done this time round.
Kozluk, who showed off the kit in just a body colour said; "I was a bit nervous considering the TV cameras were there but somebody had to do it!" said Rob who added: "The painting took about two hours and was put on with brushes which felt OK - but it's now feeling a bit stiff and tight now it has dried!"
Phil Jagielka and Rob kozluk both expressed their opinions on the new designed kit;
"It's the first time I have seen it fully and I think it's great, lighter than last year and the socks are especially comfortable - they are manufactured to stay up without tie-ups but they don't feel tight and itchy.
"Maybe the traditionalists will be upset that it has no black in it but personally I prefer the white or red shorts anyway. The players don't have much say in selecting it, and our main interest is in it being comfortable to play in - if it looks good as well, it's a bonus."
Full-back Kozluk said: "The kit looks great - I just hope the boss doesn't get any ideas about having me body-painted for home games!"
The kit will go on sale from 31 July and the away kit which will be announced at a later date will be available in late August.
