And the club brought ex-England star Wright into the fold to show off the new-look blue and yellow kit that follows their latest title win last season. Sign up for the Arsenal newsletter Thank you! The release campaign also saw modern stars from both the men’s and women’s teams – with Declan Rice, Riccardo Calafiori and Chloe Kelly wearing the colours, as well as Islington-born rapper Little Simz. Featuring a distinct navy base, the kit has reworked the original engineered geometric pattern with a contemporary execution that is complete with red and yellow accents. A club statement also revealed it incorporates adidas’ latest CLIMACOOL+ technology to maintain a lightweight feeling. Fans will have to fork out a fair bit, however, with the cheapest adult kit coming in at around £85, while a champions edition will set you back £113 or an authentic player kit version £148. But fans on social media seem more than willing to pay for it, with one excited supporter saying: “Take my money already. Adidas just never misses with our away kits!” A second said: “This is an elite kit.” Most read in Sport SUN VEGAS WELCOME OFFER: GET UP TO £100 BONUS A third added: “Every year I say, ‘I’m not spending £80+ on a damn shirt!’…” Another said: “Stunning.” A fifth said: “When are we building Wrighty’s statue?!” Arsenal kick off their title defence with the opening clash of the Premier League season.
