Arsenal have unveiled their new third kit for the 2025-26 season.
The off-white Adidas design “channels the spirit of Highbury” to mark the 20th anniversary of the club’s final season at their former stadium.
Arsenal say the kit “reflects the distinctive facades and art deco elegance of Highbury” and “seamlessly blend modern flair with Arsenal heritage”.
The shirt is completed with the Arsenal cannon crest in dark red, blending the club’s tradition with Adidas Originals style.

Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber said: “We all know how much Highbury means to our supporters, it’s part of the club’s identity. Wearing this kit is a way of honouring that history while inspiring the next generation of Arsenal supporters. It’s a special design, and I’m proud to wear it this season in front of our supporters.”
Adidas say the kit is “built for performance and to help provide world-class players with the confidence to play under pressure”.
“The on-field version of the jersey is constructed using advanced materials to maximize air flow to keep players feeling cool, while the fan version features sweat-wicking and absorbent materials to keep the body feeling dry,” said Adidas.
