Chelsea 25-26 Kits First to Be Designed by London-Based Designers

In early 2023, Nike and the club revealed that Chelsea's kits for the 2025-26 season are the first to be designed by a team of designers who recently relocated from Portland to London. Footy Headlines has been able to leak the first info about the Chelsea 25-26 home and away shirts - let's see what the first results of the move are, reflected in the 25-26 kits.

Back in 2023, it was stated that the move would allow the designers to immerse themselves in the local culture and better reflect the club's heritage in their designs. The leaks reveal that the announcement made is not off.

Chelsea 25-26 Home Kit

The Nike Chelsea 2025-26 home kit will see the return of the iconic lion crest, a beloved symbol of the club's history. This design will also feature red detailing, adding a modern twist to a classic look.

Chelsea has been experimenting a lot with its home kits in recent years and has taken a very modern approach with iridescent logos. The 25-26 season marks the return to a more history-fused look.

Chelsea 25-26 Away Kit

For the Chelsea 25-26 away kit, the designers are taking a bold step by revisiting a unique color combination from the 1974-75 away shirt—exactly 50 years after it was originally worn. The kit will feature an off-white base with green and red accents, paying homage to this vintage design while celebrating its half-century mark.

The first info showcases a historical tribute that aligns with the club's deep-rooted traditions. However, Footy Headlines expects that the club will not go entirely classic and copy old kits - expect to see some modern new elements in the kits.

Stay tuned as we hope to reveal more detailed design information about the Chelsea 25-26 kits soon.
