👕 Chelsea Kits Thread

[Behemoth 266]

Has anyone received the new home jersey yet?

The material looks slightly different to me than previous seasons. You can tell with lighter colors like on this new Bayern away kit:

Is it similar to this?

Anyone purchased their kit from SportsDirect with a name on the back? Is it the print the same as the ones you get from Chelsea Megastore? Its £20 quid cheaper on Sports Direct. Cant justify paying £70 for a football shirt (price on Chelsea store).

Was just about to post this! Bought the home shirt with the Prem badges including delivery - £44.78

Anyone know how to get this original CFC lettering on the back of jerseys?

I'm a massive fan of our new homekit Brilliant work from adidas, one of my most favorite Chelsea kits of all time :blue scalf:

Just ordered mine. Thanks!

The home kit, as a full uniform, looks excellent. I just can't seem to love the shirt by itself. Maybe if we win something in it, I'll change my mind (I wasn't a massive fan of the 11/12 kit until Wembley/Munich), but right now I think it is the poorest home shirt we've had since 09/10.

Fuck sake missed this.

These away kits look brill. on the players.

I made the mistake of ordering one without a player name.

would like it even more if they wore blue shorts...just to break the yellow up

[Jype 6,398]

That yellow shirt is beautiful, will definitely be buying one of those as soon as the price drops a little. Been planning on getting one with Schürrle on the back but now there's also Drogba. My old Drogba shirt is too big for me nowadays so I can't really wear it anymore...

Tough decisions.

Well Umbro are Nike, and Nike don't give big clubs Umbro.. hence why Man-City switched over.

Nike don't own Umbro anymore.

Odd, not sure how that info managed to slip by me, 2012 too.. wtf.

Yeah, your point about City is a fair one though. Almost all the elite clubs have Nike or adidas, there are very, very few exceptions. I don't know if you'd include Arsenal - I know I certainly wouldn't. Dortmund are perhaps the best team out there that don't belong to either kit manufacturer, although their position as Germany's second-best team is severely under threat from Schalke and Leverkusen.

All the biggest (and best) teams in world football - Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United, Juventus, AC Milan, PSG, Benfica etc. etc. - are all either Nike or adidas. The tick and the three-stripes are a sign of prestige. If we were to leave adidas, the only kit manufacturer I'd like to see us go for is Nike. Puma make a good kit once in every ten, Warrior are utterly horrendous, Umbro are usually placid, uninventive designs.

People might be bored with adidas' constant employment of black away kits, but I'd rather have kits like this, this or this, than some Warrior-horror like this or this. adidas are consistent with 7/10 or 8/10 kits, and once every now and again you get a 9.5. Like I say, it's a prestige thing, and their kits are genuinely better than most manufacturers.

Your point still stands, kinda

Big clubs don't get Umbro to make their kits.
