FAKE Alert: This is NOT the New Arsenal 20-21 Home Kit
A picture that's allegedly showing the Arsenal 20-21 home kit is doing the rounds today. It's been shared on social media a lot including a Tweet by Capital FM host Roman Kemp.

However, we can confirm that the image does in fact NOT give an accurate representation of the actual shirt.
What we're looking at here is a fake that's most likely based on a concept design that was in turn based on the limited info available to us right now.
In case you are doubting the 'fake' bit, take another close look and notice the shoddy production quality. For example, the Adidas and Arsenal logos on the chest are not aligned properly, the 'Aeroready' tag above the hem is placed way too far up and the collar is odd to say the least.
Next up, while we know that the Arsenal 2020-21 home shirt will have a darker shade of red, it will not be as dark (or pale) as the one on this fake shirt.
As shared by us a while ago, the 3 Stripes will be placed on the sides of the Arsenal home shirt, another aspect that's wrong about this shirt.
Actual color and expected pattern
The sleeve cuff style matches our info (we don't know about the exact design yet) and the pattern on the front should be correct.
All in all, it's not very accurate and there will be a number of key differences from the actual shirt.
As always, stay tuned for the first pictures of the actual Arsenal 20-21 home kit as they become available.
