Arsenal throw it back to iconic 90s 'lightning bolt' strip as Gunners reveal bold new away kit for 2025-26

The design has become synonymous with the Gunners’ away strips down the years, with some iconic teams of the past having worn such jerseys when chasing down Premier League titles and FA Cup glory.

Mikel Arteta’s class of 2025-26 will be doing likewise when heading out on the road. The north London outfit’s latest offering from adidas “draws inspiration from the famous Royal Arsenal Gatehouse lightning bolt, the navy shirt is adorned with metallic detailing and the sleeves feature the iconic adidas Three Stripes in red, adding a pop of colour and vibrancy”.

Declan Rice has said: “I love the look of our new away kit and we can't wait to wear it for the first time in front of our supporters here in Singapore. Gooners all over the world give us a special energy. We’re excited to take that with us into an exciting new season.”

Juergen Rank, senior design director at adidas, added: “For this season’s away shirt we wanted to create something nostalgic, leaning on the lightning bolt graphic and reinterpreting it in a fresh and contemporary way for the modern era of Arsenal supporters. The pattern and navy colourway have become synonymous with some of the club’s most iconic shirts of the past, and we hope supporters of the club love it as much as we do. We’re really excited to see it worn on-pitch and in the away stands this season.”

Arsenal’s new away collection "includes a host of accessories, including a bucket hat and waistbag featuring the same lightning bolt print as the shirt, alongside a two-tone adidas x Arsenal Samba sneaker with a navy blue upper and Three Stripes in red”.

The Gunners are currently in Singapore as part of their pre-season tour of Asia and will give their bold new away kit a first run out when facing Serie A giants AC Milan on July 23.
