***Update 02/04/2009***
To clear up some confusion, there are NO zips on any of the kits. Yes, the style of the shirts, which resemble cycling style shirts, may make it look like there should be a zip present, but there aren’t. If you see any supposed Chelsea shirts for next season that have a zip on it, it is a fake shirt.
******
After now having received descriptions of the new kits by those who have seen them first hand, I have an update to show how the kits will look like:
Home:
The home shirt is based on the ‘cycling top’ template. The blue remains what is now the standard Adidas ‘reflex’ blue for Chelsea home kits. There is no additional white adidas trimming. The shirt seems slim-fitting, which may be a problem for any more ample-sized fans wishing to wear a replica version.
Away:
Of the other two shirts, the following is presumably the away shirt as white is a traditional Chelsea away colour. The main feature of the away shirt is the set of black horizontal stripes. Again, it is based on the ‘cycling top’ style.
The away shirt is reminiscent of the 1984-85 away shirt, which was also predominantly white, but also had thin grey/black horizontal stripes.
Third:
The main feature of what is presumably the third shirt is the set of grey-blue and charcoal-black horizontal stripes, along with the Chelsea crest, logos and three striped all in the somewhat infamous ‘electric yellow’. The pattern of grey-blue and black horizontal stripes means the away kit will be completely different to the current away kit as it steps away from the traditional Chelsea away colours of yellow or white.
love the away and the third shirts the home shirt could be better ]:
These are absolutely hideous. Cycling? Really?
Please.. it must be a joke..
They are horrid and I won’t buy it.
I hope that they will be change.
CHELSEA FOREVER!
Dont care what they look like its the badge that counts
too shay viggy. its all about the badge. chelsea til i die, bring on everton and barcelona. lets battle for 1st in league aswell.
it dusnt matter wa it looks like it is how we play during the season n we all no who iis the best
well, the home kit doesn’t differ alot
:)
but I like the away kit the most
& the 3rd kit is horribal & looks like shit.
waiting 2 buy the home & away kits
As long as the quality issue is sorted this year, I mean, the 08/09 shirt fabric pulled and snagged just looking at it!
Personally, the first adidas shirt was the best – wearing one right now in fact!
I lyk the away the best!
It looks a bit tight on lampard!
Lol
the third kids like arsenals by. Shitter by coppying the strips because u can’t think of ur own
the new keeper kit is revealed on the 1st of may and is on the megastore website now. it is fluro green apparently.
the away gk kit is fluro green with dark navy. and the home is the same orange
dominic, how do you know about the goalie kit? Is the home one definitely staying orange?? I’m not that bothered about the away one, to be honest, but all the same, it sounds interesting. Would love it if the home one was the same as this season, though!
Im crazy in love with the away kit, must have it
we r using this seasons yellow third kit for the FA Cup final. Sucks dunnit!
The Home GK is Navy Blue/Flourescent Green, it is on the megastore itself to preorder and the Baby one has the colour’s on.
LOL, bad mock up with Frank, looks like a pinhead while the rest of him is some fat bastard. Mind you…
The last years ones were much better…. the home ones are very slim and they are kind of spacemen…. the away are really nice and the third are quite nice but they should of been yellow and black!!! Not as expected

Away looks alright, the rest are crap…. I’m a fan of this year’s Yellow
Why are you saying this i love the shirts give the lads a chance guys, last years kits were much uglyer with the fuckin collars this kit is much better and i think theil suit it.
amazing!amazing!amazing!
the home kit is real its on the chelsea website
Seen these images Chris? What you are expecting? Or just created from your mockups?

I have. Had been expecting very similar styled shirts as the mocks suggest, but obviously using the same template as the home shirt. So the shirts those photos show are either fake, or updated versions from before, or there was possibly an oversight in the descriptions given to me. In any case, the styles are similar.
THISS KIT IS SHYYYYYTEEEEEEE ITS LIKE A BICICLE SUIT
THe Away kits are OK especially the white, but the home kit is AWFUL………Have no fear guys, they couldn’t be seriously planning to get these sold.
I hate the collar on the new third shirt ( the one on fsc) but the colurs are good. too similar to home though. are we gettin another new keeper kit. away kit is class but i wish they would stop using these badges that are blended in. they look crap and no one else uses them!
i agree, the blended badges look awful and should be scrapped! i just hope adidas make some proper kits that are mixes of blue, black and white – proper colours!
what ta heck dude ?! so ugly mannnnnn . woh !
love the panels. hope the away kit is the one here. wen does the training kit come out
dont enjoy the badges but they may have been designed to avoid nipple chaffing, as old sewed badges can cause. Am enjoying the teams taking a old shirt style and modernising them with new technological materials. Especially evertons, awesome kit!
YUCK!! Why do they have man-tit plates??? Nice gay collar and ridiculous moob plates (moob=man-boob)

absolutely horrid the first one makes the players look like they have man boobs the second one is amazingggggg and the 3rd looks like they have put some colours into a hat and picked them out blind folded i am actually a Chelsea supporter i get every kit every year but maybe not every one this year they are ment to be professional looking bashir your a dick-head dont swear wee kids might be influenced
i preffer the away shirt to the home and third shirt
wondering whether the source is reliable not? by the way hate the 3rd design. yellow just spoil the mood!
the home one is for two years this season and next season
is this a real kit or is it a joke yes or no
the away is availible to order from 25 june and is worn with black shorts and white socks
this kit is great i’m going to be the first to get it
this will be adidas and chelseas last season…
good awy kit n third kit……………
Seriously the kits are awesome the home isnt that good
the home kit really sucks balls… it does not even resemble a football jersey. plus the 3rd kit is the same as the one inter used a few years ago in europe, not only bad taste, not even original, it looks like pjs
