Vesper 30,195 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Ranking every Premier League home kit for 2025-26: Wavy brilliance, retro styling and a nod to shepherds https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6538413/2025/08/07/premier-league-home-kits-2025-26-ranked/ A new season and new threads to enjoy — unless, of course, your team already wore their 2025-26 home kit last season for marketing purposes. As ever, the beginning of a campaign means new strips for all 20 Premier League clubs and that has stirred The Athletic’s resident kit critic Nick Miller into action. He has cast his eye over every fresh home shirt that we’ll see when English football’s top flight gets back underway next week and has rated them from worst to best. Dive into the list below.

dimmas 131 Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 What’s going on with our FOS news? It’s been so quiet lately, and the league’s starting in just a couple of days. And what happens if the season kicks off and we still haven’t closed the sponsor deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing happens. Two seasons ago we got sponsor in late September and last season in April... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 I'm kind of surprise that they haven't got a sponsor, unless they realize they make more money without a sponsor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,195 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Hopefully they make the FCWC badge smaller. Every time I see our kit it just looks too damn big, bigger even than our club crest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,195 Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Chelsea unveil aggressively basic 2025-26 third kit Don’t hurt yourself, Nike https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/kits/161245/Chelsea-unveil-aggressively-basic-2025-26-third-kit I’m on record for favoring simplicity when it comes to my Chelsea shirts. “It’s Blue, what else matters?” as the memorable ad campaign (the one with the blue paint) said over a decade ago now. But there’s keeping it simple in a classy way — as Nike themselves showed with that tremendous FA Cup 50th Anniversary shirt — and then there’s keeping it simple in a “who gives a [FUN]” way. If that adidas ad campaign in 2014 posited that Chelsea fans would buy a home shirt sight unseen just knowing that it was blue, Nike’s current third shirt figures that Chelsea fans would buy any old crap as long as it’s billed “a Chelsea shirt”. Behold: some black polyester, straight out of the seconds pile at the factory floor, rejected as training shirts, even. And where’s the World Champions badge going to go? A generous view of this design might say that it borrows from Nike’s own Brazil kits in the early 2000s — and they teased it with those Nike Total 90 balls from the same time, with the marketing also doling out nostalgia about the 2004-05 Chelsea season and Nike’s Total 90 era in general — but to me this is little more than throwaway garbage. Buy it here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
