Chelsea

Our reader MuteMick247365 has spotted the new Nike Chelsea 26-27 third kit on sale, ahead of its launch. Drawing heavy inspiration from the club's 1992-94 away strip, the shirt features a clean white base complemented by thin red vertical pinstripes, bold blue collar and cuff accents, and a retro shielded 1990s crest.

Manchester City's 2026-27 third kit evokes memories of Chelsea's 2003-04 away shirt, with both designs featuring a white base and a blue gradient stripe running vertically down the centre.

Interestingly, the Chelsea shirt was carried over as the club's third kit for the 2004-05 season, making the design familiar across two consecutive campaigns.

The story behind Manchester City's new design is just as interesting. Created through PUMA's AI Creator platform, the shirt won the brand's kit design competition in late 2024, after nearly 180,000 submissions. It was one of 10 finalists before ultimately being selected as Manchester City's official third kit.

Thanks to @jersey_story for the information.

Emi Martinez has officially switched from No. 26 to No. 1 at Chelsea after just one match. The Argentine goalkeeper wore No. 26 in Chelsea's 4-3 win over Brighton.

With Robert Sanchez joining Como on loan, the No. 1 shirt became available, allowing Martínez to make the switch. Chelsea is now the third professional club where Martinez has worn No. 1, following Getafe and Aston Villa.

In a nice gesture to supporters who had already purchased his previous shirt, Martinez will sign all official “Martinez 26” jerseys bought through Chelsea's Megastore or official website. Fans can bring their shirt and proof of purchase to Stamford Bridge before October 4.

Chelsea's new 26-27 third kit has been spotted on retail shelves and has now begun appearing across select Nike online stores, providing a full look at the retro-infused design ahead of its formal club launch. Following initial leaks over the past week, the shirt has already surfaced in both player-issue and replica versions in multiple locations. Big thanks to @batsflip.

In-store displays show the kit equipped with the USDC by Circle front-of-shirt sponsor and the gold FIFA Club World Champions crest positioned centrally between the Nike swoosh and the club badge. Clean, sponsorless editions have also appeared on official retail channels, complemented by matching white shorts and socks.
