“The new kit takes inspiration from the famous and much-loved jerseys of the 1980s and 90s. Flashes of colour light up the shirt, with dazzling horizontal red and white lines vibrantly standing out against the famous Chelsea blue,” a statement on the club website stated.
Antoine Conte’s men will pair the home jersey with blue shorts and white socks, embellished by a horizontal red and blue trim at the knee, the West Londoner confirmed.
As is the case with the most high-profile clubs that are sponsored by American sports wear giants Nike, Chelsea have two variants of their jerseys available for sale.

Similarly, the shorts to pair with the tops have different prices. The match shorts cost £54.95 while you’ll have to shell out £29.95 for the stadium ones.

High up on the back of the neckline of the shirt sits a small lion while inside the jersey, the words ‘Blue is the Colour’ can be found, the opening line from the club anthem.
