Chelsea’s 2025/26 Home Kit: What We Know So Far
The Chelsea home kit for the 2025/26 season is still a few months away from its official release, but a plethora of rumors are already buzzing about what the Blues will don next year.
Following the 2024/25 home kit being ranked as the worst of all the shirts in the Premier League by eScored, Chelsea will certainly aim for a much more impressive appearance for the upcoming season. With promising prospects for silverware, a well-designed kit could enhance its legacy.
Recent seasons have shown that Chelsea isn’t hesitant to experiment with their designs, so the new 2025/26 home kit might just continue this exciting trend.
Leaked prediction for the Chelsea home kit for 2025/26
As reported by Footy Headlines, the new Chelsea jersey is anticipated to hit the market in early July 2025. While the traditional blue and white color scheme is making a return (as expected), subtle touches of red will be added to make the kit truly stand out.
Sticking with Nike, Chelsea’s upcoming kit will resemble the one from the 2023/24 season significantly, maintaining the iconic ‘Rush Blue’ while allowing white to play a more prominent role.
It’s crucial to understand that details regarding the kit’s design remain scarce, with Footy Headlines‘ prediction stemming primarily from leaks. While the color schemes are confirmed, a significant alteration is the crest design—marking 2025/26 as the third consecutive season without the traditional Chelsea roundel.
This time, rather than just minor tweaks to the Chelsea crest, the 2025/26 home kit is expected to feature the club’s Lion symbol as the new crest, complemented by a striking red shadow to ensure it stands out against the blue background.
The choice of red detailing is particularly intriguing. In 2021/22, Nike incorporated subtle yellow accents, while the 2023/24 kit introduced iridescent elements. Notably, red hasn’t been a staple on Chelsea’s home kits since the 2010/11 season.
The identity of the sponsor for the upcoming Chelsea kit remains uncertain as the club continues to negotiate a new front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2024/25 season. Reports suggest that discussions are actively ongoing.
