Arsenal unveils new 90s-inspired away kit

Arsenal FC and adidas have officially unveiled their new away kit for the 2026-27 season. This jersey is a modern interpretation of one of the most iconic designs in club history — the legendary "Bruised Banana" style from the early 1990s. As the Gunners prepare for the new season as Premier League champions, they aim to pay tribute to their history with this kit, reports Goal.com. reports .

The new kit features a dark blue base with geometric patterns reminiscent of the original 1991-1993 design. The jersey incorporates the classic adidas Trefoil logo and the club crest, accented with yellow and red details. According to Goal.com, this design not only evokes nostalgia but also symbolizes the team's ambition for new victories.

A blend of history and modernity

The launch event featured defender Riccardo Calafiori, midfielder Declan Rice, club legend Ian Wright, and women's team star Chloe Kelly. As part of the presentation, a series of short films involving players and fans were shown, highlighting the significance of football kits to supporters and the club's traditions.

"We are all looking forward to stepping onto the pitch in this kit. We know how much the 'Bruised Banana' design means to our fans — even today, you can see many people wearing this style. Wearing a kit with such a rich history gives us extra motivation," said Riccardo Calafiori during the presentation.

Technologically, the kit is equipped with adidas' latest CLIMACOOL+ system. This technology helps regulate players' body temperature and ensures high-level comfort through moisture management and strategic ventilation zones, serving to increase athlete endurance during dynamic matches.

Mikel Arteta's side is aiming to defend their title and succeed in major tournaments. As Calafiori added, the team is not only proud of the past but is also eager to create its own new legacy and bring even more joyful moments to the fans. The new kit embodies this very idea.

This news is naturally of great interest to Arsenal fans in Uzbekistan, as the team's 90s retro style is highly popular among collectors and football enthusiasts in the region, just as it is worldwide. The new kit is expected to be available in official stores in the coming days.
