Blue? Red blue white??? Mbappe confirmed LFG COYG


Lavassin

Instructions unclear, the gang signs Pulisic


HalfNatty

Matt Turner is coming home?!


AlarmedYogurtcloset3

At the rate we’re hitting on failed Chelsea projects, wouldn’t be the worst signing


Classic-Reflection87

Pulisic is prolific rn.


Aianotaku

Then De Jong is coming


Pretend_Stomach7183

Havertz, Jorginho, Rice... Even Eddie to ane extent. I'm convinced being sold by Chelsea just means you are their only competent player.


Omnom_Omnath

Wouldn’t be upset about that honestly, he’s killing it in serie a


dngleberry_hndpmp

Tribute to Kroenke on Arsenal winning the UCL.


maidentaiwan

damn adidas. you either die a hero or live long enough to become a puma.


SnapJohnKarlstrad

Why can't we just have sleeves separated? They are literally going the Puma route with the sleeves going into the shape of the shirt, it's atrocious omg


OriMoriNotSori

It's probably a template thing. Nike has that inverted U shape thing going on at the front for all their jerseys too. Miss the days when teams get unique kits from brands. Or at least use templates that are able to have variation, like last season's home with the collar. Ours and Man U's are basically the same template but the way the kits were designed there was enough difference between them to not look like copy paste templates


DaGetz

They care about profit margins and you don’t just design a kit anymore - you need to anticipate sales and to generate anticipated numbers for that to present to leadership you need to do a customer acceptance survey and doing one of those for every club would cost insane money - so - they do customer acceptance testing on a template and then adjust within a margin for each club contract.


OriMoriNotSori

Tbh they don't have to do it for every single team they work with, just the top ones which are probably like 1 or 2 max per top 5 league country for each brand


DaGetz

They don’t have to do it at all - they’re trying to maximise margins and sell the most shirts. They have three arsenal kits a year excluding the designer ones. They’re not trying to sell everyone three shirts - chances are you fit into a demographic that likes at least one of the shirts. Look at the kits for this season - they’re all clearly targeting very different types of people - that’s not by accident.


pepsibookplant

Inverted U, wish there was another letter that described that perfectly...


Neanderthal888

You are so right about this. I miss the separated sleeves look I want another kit with 2011-12 type simplicity.


SnapJohnKarlstrad

Yes. The 125 Anniversary one, my all time favorite. Classic and clean.


ro-row

it's the fact we have to have new kits every season, each year you got to do something different and they slowly get worse and worse until they become horrible


maidentaiwan

they could've just stuck to the template of updating old, beloved shirt designs (bruised banana, the blue banana a couple years later) ... or introduced new colors we haven't really seen before (both the black and pink last year) ... it's really not that hard.


pivandee

Lol


getrektbro

I just do not like blue in our home kit. Red, white, occasional gold as needed.


jacktk_

Switch the blue with gold and this looks great


[deleted]

It looks gold to me. Wait, is it blue or gold?


Zizoutiti

Oh no, not this again


Idavid14

It’s gold until it’s blue


rikzilla

Someone photoshop this I am curious to see the blue as gold. But yeah as is I am pretty disappointed if this is real.


SearchForElsewheres

11-12 was quite good with the blue sleeve hoops imo


DVPC4

That was 2012-14 I believe


jared_007

It was so popular that it was copied by the toddler animated show “Cocomelon”. [Here’s Nico](https://images.app.goo.gl/BjzUrmE8KdSrnbKH8) I also enjoy that dark shade of blue. I don’t enjoy this new one.


DiuhBEETuss

Yeah I loved that Nike kit. First one I owned. I’d be down for that shade of blue, but this one is too Chelsea for my liking.


pgl0897

My old man used to say “they won’t be The Arsenal til they bring the blue and white socks back”.


2ndfastestmanalive

Can even have the smallest bit of blue like the 19/20 home kit did, but the perfect amount of blue is how much last seasons home kit had


TheRealGooner24

Only the Adidas trefoil stripes were blue and that was tastefully executed unlike this piece of visual diarrhoea.


littletorreira

Blue is fine when used for piping and cuff detail ala the late 80s stripes or the JVC home with the side piping. This is too big and too bright.


Key_Ad493

Blue is an Arsenal colour. I love the blue and red combo .


Yeskid10

Don't like the blue at all


YungSk7

I think this might be real just cause of the blue. Adidas have that weird design down the side on their football training clothes this year. Not a fan tbh.


Mubar06

It reminds me of 2000s World Cup kits but don’t like it here


pjt-

Reminds me of the 2006 WC ball design.


RepeatDTD

Look at Germany's kit for the Euros this summer...


Mubar06

Yeah I know it’s the 2024 addidas template


RepeatDTD

To quote Gollum, "WE HATES IT!"


Mubar06

Me neither


jamonz1

Yeah, it pops a little too much. If it a dark royal blue it’s would be more subdued. Also, switch the rings on the socks back to red and it’d be a decent kit.


DarthVerus

Agree, the blue from the 21/22 kit would look a lot better. Hope it’s a few shades darker.


BIG_FICK_ENERGY

Hate it


h_djo

Fucking looks like the designer added that at 3am before closing photoshop and shipping it at 9.


[deleted]

It’s a nod to Chelsea for selling you guys Havertz


TheRealGooner24

And Jorginho.


lekynson

Yep..I don't like the blue


GloomyLocation1259

I love it haha, I love the divide in kit conversations, I’ve hated all 3 this year


AccidentalThief

Same I like it. Not a fan of the shoulder area. But I think it’s a solid kit overall


TheDepartment115

We had blue back in the JVC and Dreamcast days.


FullMingoGringo

Still beats just about every home Puma kit we had


KozukiNedo

Personally I think they made a mistake when they changed the club badge to include blue. Should just be red, white and gold


sionnach

The badge needs a change. It’s neither modern or classic and the typeface is awful. I think a redesign is needed. Just focus on the cannon.


scooter_pops

agreed


arctic_parrot

I actually quite like the blue, it's sort of interesting, i judt really don't like the shape and texture of that side bit


e1_duder

The home kit should be the easiest to nail.


Cthulhu_Madness

The fuck is that chelsea fugly blue doing there. Piss off Adidas


No-Cash-2859

Blue is in the logo so I support adidas’s decision. Although gold is in the logo too so that could’ve been a better choice


Kovacs171

Royal/Navy blue has been used on Arsenal kits for over a century lol, it's always been a common accent colour...


Mubar06

Don’t like it Addidas don’t do this to us 😤


Captain_Inverse

They will and we'll have no choice but to like it once the games start being played and we reel off some wins 😭


acerage

I mean the away kit has really grown on me...


xepa105

It's still fuck ugly, but it's our fuck ugly kit.


TheRealGooner24

The radioactive zebra is infinitely better than this dogshit.


cesc05651

Awful. What are we Chelsea


fsamuel

Lets hope it will be More like the dark blue nike used in the 2014 kit


dukkman

Surely not...


KakaReti

Fake. Clearly fake. Any sane arsenal fan just have to check the sleeve. I don't see the 23/24 PL champions crest.


TheBigNoz123

Nobody talking about what the back looks like on that Tomiyasu kit, what’s with all that white


Callum1710

As much as I don't think I'm a fan of this one... To some of you, you do realise we have blue in the badge right? And have had fully blue kits and red kits with blue accents in the past...


Mubar06

We had one 2 seasons ago lol


Callum1710

Exactly! And I loved that top, up there in top home kits for me


Strider_21

Maybe the blue is a nod to how we keep taking Chelsea players and making them good?


xChocolateWonder

Hopefully leaked in time to complete scrap it and start over. Holy fuck that’s awful


obsterwankenobster

We blue ourselves? But seriously, I just hope the quality is better than this year's home kit. The 3rd kit is comfortable and quality, but my home one feels like it's made of stiff tissue paper


msusteve280

![gif](giphy|AVD4STcQQhkZO|downsized)


RenRu

Oh Edu, you blowhard!


GreyamRus

Yeah I’ve got enough stiff tissue paper after watching the last few matches


Tamelmp

Yeah and socks. My cupboards stink


chazzledazzle10

the seam on the neck of my home kit began to come undone after wearing it a couple of times. Not the only thing I've got from Arsenal direct that has had faulty manufacturing this year, although they're not all adidas products


Melo_the_cutie

Step 1: disgust We’ll revisit this when the players wear it 🤣


tammrak

The sleeves, the blue, the puma-ness all bad, but the back of the shirt is the worst of all.


parhelio22

Red white blue? Mbappe agenda isn't dead yet


SDN_stilldoesnothing

Did Adidas outsource to Puma? ![gif](giphy|4baoNZ5Qo8dX2)


DefactoOverlord

First bad home kit from Adidas if this is how it actually looks.


NewAccWhoDis93

20/21 was prettt average


DefactoOverlord

Yeah it was average but not straight up bad imo.


archasaurus

Hope it’s fake


Key_Cartoonist5604

Look at the back of it on the wall too, not a fan. The back looks ugly


JFedererJ

Iconic Arsenal shirts have had threads of blue but it’s been deep navy. This barely dark royal blue is fucking horrible.


RyMaster7

Garbage


CatDancing

It's like they took everything I disliked about the 23-24 kit, combined it with the 21-22 kit, and added a few lines to make it worse.


Lukey2770

I think it's better to have a new home kit every two years, you can do anything with the away and third kits. I think it would give them time to come up with something decent.


dirty-soda-spike-lee

Damn that’s awful


Tricky_Lock_4273

Hideous


PoodlyGooner

It seems to regress every year


AnAwfulLotOfOcelots

Not accurate there’s no gold badge.


MirkoCemes

The blue just doesn’t work. Even ignoring the fact that it isn’t Arsenal home, it just looks poorly done and out of place.

ObservantOrangutan

It’s as if everyone has already forgotten that the Adidas shoulder stripes were blue literally just last season.


Pamplemouse04

Season before last


Mubar06

Last season our kit had no blue it was just red and white


ObservantOrangutan

Yea you’re right, it’s the 2021/22 kit. Had my years mixed up


XxAbsurdumxX

I seem to be in the clear minority here, but I actually like the blue and the design of it. Its a clear nod to our club shield. Don't love the shoulders, though


xeblade4

I like it 🤷🏻


kr0nks_spinachpuffs

Rare miss


Shrawds

Fake


morrisoN--

Our Adidas kits seem to be slowly starting to fall off, started with this season's kits and looks like it will continue


Seasonalking

Shit’s getting more ridiculous every year


YSG19

Great, I’ll save money next season.


Tricky_Lock_4273

Football kits are the cheapest, quickest and worst designed products in the world. No point spending money designing a nice kit when people will buy it regardless


GylesNoDrama

Adidas man this ain’t it

wingbackguy

They better have the best away kit of all time lined up because what the fuck is this


Big_Mik_Energy

Everyone always hates the kit leaks at first, it’s so fucking funny


[deleted]

Nope.


xnvrdarren

I don’t hate it- Is it better than the current home? No, will I buy it? Also no I swear if the away is worse than this years, I’m removing my eyes


WastedTalent442

That's really nice, just a shame someone spilled blue ink on it.


WealthyBigWang

There is no way this is real lmao


manosboiii

Hell nah


tartimas

Boring and uncreative Edit: I had those same socks in 2009…. Pulling from the archive


DeltaSierra97

Omg this is horrible


momspaghetty

Colgate FC


Thymus_Tickler

So grim...


nealski77

Sponsored by British Airways.


ActionManMLNX

I think the blue colour is here to symbolize Arsenal being the current Champions League winners.


Cyberfire

Too white, needs red socks at the very least.


wolfmandog12

Volleyball ahh kit


AmbroseClaver

Will look fine on the players - but wouldn’t add to collection 


Hail_Andronikos

The worst part of this is the red not fully covering the back of the shirt. It looks like trying to clean up a wine stain with a napkin


Stunning_Cookie_295

this looks like some AI generated design, hope that this is the last time i see this creation


Medfly70

Sigh. What is their obsession with having the white go past the shoulders.


Ok_Understanding1986

Gross no blue. Back to the drawing board, lads.


juicygloop

Looks like Nike shit. Not for me


haseebinc

bring the collar back


Ok-Satisfaction-5012

That shit is ass, do it again


lanas_high_heels

I think it’s fine. I’m guessing but it looks like Piccadilly Line blue and the side panel is train tracks. There’s bound to be an anniversary around the tube station or something. This would keep with the theme of the yellow kit which was a topographic map of Islington. Adidas have been very keen to either tie kit designs to historical kit designs (green 3rd, bruised banana, lightning bolts) or expanding our visual identity by incorporating aspects of our rich history & identity(marble, art deco, Afro-Caribbean heritage…)


DallasC0wboys

Looks like a worse version of the current kit.


tuananhtran191911

the fuck?


Lindkvist15

Not the right logo (the gunner is the right one) and the side looks weird on this picture but the general idea of the kit is right.


hoopla-pdx

That is really plain and boring, other than the bit of blue. Adidas needs some imagination.


YesOrNah

Really bad. Wtf is going on with our designs lately

Worldly_Ad_6483

Royal blue?? Navy maybe, but that’s foookin Chelsea blue


mitpenco

I'm confused don't Premier league champions normally have a gold patch on the sleeves


Jeem262

I know I’m late but it’s been confirmed this is only a concept. No info on the design other than the colors and template have been made public


mycatchica

It’ll grow on you when we win our second consecutive Premier and Champions league titles


GloomyLocation1259

Yes bring back some blue and a normal type of yellow for the away kit please 🙏🏾


Kcorpelchs

Yikes....please no with the Chelsea blue underwear skid mark styling


bodjatrawr

Why this blue? Looks trash


EclectrcPanoptic

How hard is it to keep the shoulders red? Last years home kit was the best in decades because they kept it clean


Enjzey

if you look up Arsenal logo, you would see two blue stripes along side the logo as well


TALEOFUS

Feels like a Puma kit.


WhoIsYourDaddy04

Reminds me of some of the old Nike kits from I think the late 90's/early 2000's, when we were winning leagues and doubles. If legit, quite like the kit and I like the omen.


danmac0817

I was having a perfectly good day up until now. EDIT: the more I look at this the less I believe its real


ShitMongoose

![gif](giphy|9xEjFxSoNNlK0|downsized)


HektorOvTroy

Why are we adding blue? Seems stupid.


MyrkuriYT

I feel like this is a nod to the 1992 JVC kit that had blue in it. Not a fan though


51_cent

Would be better without the blue


grapeape808

When we gonna get those fire Nike kits back?


ChickenStrip22

Worst home kit I’ve ever seen cause of the blue


Trekbike32

Fuck no


Tamelmp

When we gonna go lone cannon instead of full logo? Looks so nice

Should have just kept the 19/20 home kit for the whole adidas contract


erdna3000

i just want a yellow road jersey is that too much to ask?


Mubar06

I’m hoping it’s just a guess based on next season’s adidas template and the leaked colours


Oppailover69

The away kit must balance this out


SrGrimey

Oh no, it's time to buy a shirt before it gets worse!


manc_1011

i dont like the blue at all but im pretty sure i will like it once our players start wearing it😂


rahulinho

This looks horrendous. Reminds me of toothpaste for some reason.

krawb

Looks horrendous


arsenal11385

I saw this seasons kit in an adidas store yesterday for the first time in person. Now that I see this one I want to go back and buy it.


Hech15

Ain't no way we are lifting the premier league trophy in this kit on last matchday


TheMedianUser

looks like dogshit!


Edward_the_Sixth

I don't believe it is real, it is a recolour of the mock up currently on Footy Headlines, and I think this is a computer render - look at the Tomiyasu nameset at the back


ChairInternational60

Reminds me of 21/22


Shaggythemoshdog

I love it. Blue and white socks are back


impairedblur

please no


OG12

Wow this is really ugly. Adidas mailing it in with the template. 


Alpal487

I really hope this is a fake


Mubar06

I’ve found out it’s fake but the real one will have blue and likely same template


Key_Cartoonist5604

Why can’t we just have this year’s kits every year? It’s gorgeous!


NOLA-Gunner

Don’t mind the blue, but would rather it on the end on the sleeve, and no white on the body.


randallwatson23

That is heinous


lucastimmons

Nope.


nostrobes-noleather

The blue on the socks is abhorrent


xhouliganx

Red, white, and blue? The Kronkes must be trying to capture more of an American audience
