Chelsea Football Club and adidas unveiled the new home kit for the 2015/16 season.
Featuring the logo of their new official shirt partner Yokohama, it will be worn for the first time during the pre-season tour to America, debuting against New York Red Bulls, with a formal launch to take place in Harlem the day before the match.
The design is taking inspiration from several classic shirts by using several design features which made these kits fan favourites. With white and red trims at the collar, sleeves, shorts and socks the kit celebrates these club colours and ties back to the club`s kit history. The vertical pinstripes underline this celebration of Chelsea`s history, having been a feature of several iconic shirts from the past 30 years.

The new shirt also includes the latest adidas performance technologies designed to allow players to be faster and more comfortable on the field. The shirt includes climacool ventilation technology designed to help keep the body cool and dry through breathable materials, fabrics and special stitching which provides greater freedom of movement and comfort without sacrificing flexibility and resilience.
