This is the one Arsenal fans have been waiting for. This is the one shirt that every Arsenal fans immediately thought of when adidas announced they were back in town in North London. Yep, for the 2019/20 season Arsenal will be wearing an away shirt inspired by the iconic 'bruised banana' design from the early 1990s.
Celebrating the club’s history with a modern interpretation of a classic kit synonymous with Arsenal, it's fair to say that adidas have made an incredibly strong first impression with Gooners in their first return year to the club. In fact, we'd bet you'd struggle to find any Arsenal fan that doesn't agree that the 19/20 home and away jerseys are the strongest they've had in the last decade, or even two.
The design features a modern twist on the historic ‘bruised banana’ graphic: a minimal, shaded zig-zag pattern adorns the famous bright yellow of the Arsenal away jersey, creating a contemporary take on the ‘90s shirt. The revived and redesigned kit for this season, previously a symbol of the adidas and Arsenal partnership, brings the past into the present with this bold new design. Arsenal are set to wear their new 2019/20 away shirt for the first time on their pre-season tour of the United States when they take on Bayern Munich on July 17 in Los Angeles.
A navy crew neck collar is colour matched with navy adidas stripes on the shoulders and logo. The navy detailing matches the navy used in the 1991-3 design graphic, a subtle nod to an old era brought into the future. The first competitive action the away jersey will see will be in Arsenal’s first away game of the new Premier League season, against Newcastle on August 11.
