Arsenal has dropped its new third kit for the 2025/26 season, and it is a noble tribute to the former Gunners house and marked for 20 years since the Club Highbury left the Emirates stage.
The new design mixes with red, red and gold details with red, wide fabric and channel the art deco architecture and the legacy of the legendary North London floor. A crunchy white polo collar, cuff accents and retro adidas Trefoil branding give the shirt a unmistakable feeling of relapse, while the historic cannon crest steals the vintage look stylishly.
In the collar there is a graphic of the striking facade of Highbury – an allusion to a stadium that is revered by followers for two decades.
“We all know how much highbury for our supporters means that it is part of the club’s identity,” said defender Jurrien Timber. “Wearing this kit is a way to honor this story and at the same time inspire the next generation of Arsenal fans.”
To mark the start, Arsenal and Adidas produced a short film in a gallery room inspired by Highbury’s Marmor Halls. The jersey is treated like a timeless work of art, with Model Kai Isaiah Jamal, rapper Pa Salieu and Clublegende Freddie Ljungberg.
The following day, the current stars Riccardo Calafiori, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Timber visited the exhibition alongside the icons of David Seaman and Rachel Yankey, the past, present and future.
The new third kit is one of Adidas and the official business of Adidas and the official business of Arsenal as well as selected global retailrs and speaks to nostalgia – but like the future.
