Chelsea 2008-2009 Away Adidas Football kit

Chelsea unveiled their new black away kit and goalkeeper kit for the 08/09 season made by Adidas. Chelsea's traditional away colours are all yellow or all white with blue trim, but, as with most teams, they have had some more unusual ones.

The first away strip consisted of black and white stripes and for one game in the 1960s the team wore Inter Milan-style blue and black stripes, again at Docherty's behest.

Other memorable away kits include a mint green strip in the 1980s, a red and white checked one in the early 90s and a graphite and tangerine addition in the mid-1990s. The 2007/2008 Chelsea away strip consists of an 'electric yellow' shirt.

    I love adidas, but where\'s the originality? All of their kits these days look the same, they just have palette swapped colours. It wouldn\'t be so bad if it was only used by one team...but it\'s not...

    It wouldn\'t apply to Steve Bennett though, he\'s Man Yoo\'s bumlicker ref.

    also wat is it with changing the colour of the badge to match the kit it looks well tacky, if they did that on a villa kit id be well peeved,

    This kit is boring as can be. If the white was blue, it would be the best kit Chelsea\'s ever had. Also, what is with the keeper kits lately being similar to the field player kits? It\'s so easy to pick a contrasting color and they can\'t even do that right.

    I quite like the kit, but it\'s still Chelsea at the end of the day, much better than their rubbish home strip with the dodgy collar...

    It\'s ok, nothing special and is certainly better than the hi-vis yellow of last season. I can only assume that the yellow and blue shirt we\'ve seen leaked on this site (and elsewhere) be the away kit for Champions League matches (and third kit domestically).

    Anyhow I doubt we\'ll see the keeper kit get used at the same time as the away kit, even the most myopic referee can tell the kits clash so we\'ll be seeing Cech wear his bright orange kit even more now. Not sure why Adidas opted for an away keeper kit in almost a similar colour to the player kit :-?

    they say that chelsea influence refs to gain an advantage so now they have gone 1 better n r dressin like them pmsl

    jokes aside looks quite similar to 06/08 home shirt, but is definately nicer than new home shirt.

    but adidas are getting worse each year if you ask me? no invention, watch out liverpool this is your new away kit
