Chelsea FC’s 21/22 Away kit reintroduces the iconic yellow colourway but in a new and vibrant fashion. It’s paired with black to create a striking and impactful design aesthetic.
When you look back at every notable era in the club’s history, it’s clear to see that yellow kits have been a part of the tapestry. These iconic kits are rooted within the Chelsea colour palette & have been brought to the forefront this season.
The pinstripe hoops are a nod to kits of the past but are refreshed by the pairing with black, representative of this new era of youthful energy taking over the club.
One of these players who defines this current era and worked his way up through the ranks is Mason Mount, “When you look over the years, you always remember the yellow kits on our heroes that made an impact. As players I feel we can do the same and create even more special moments in this new kit!”
Complete with black shorts, yellow socks with a black stripe and hidden accents in the neckline. The ‘Pride of London’ logo is also present on the inside of the jersey, serving as a reminder of the club’s values.
The new Chelsea FC Away kit that players will wear on the pitch, as well as the replica jerseys for the fans, are constructed with 100% recycled polyester fabric, which is made from recycled plastic bottles. This allows the kits to help deliver peak performance while reducing our impact on the environment.
No other sport captures global attention like the beautiful game, and Nike sees this as an opportunity to scale more sustainable solutions in order to help protect the future of sport. As part of Nike’s wider Move to Zero initiative – a journey towards zero carbon and zero waste – Nike is focussed on scaling the usage of lower-carbon material alternatives. Recycled polyester1 reduces carbon emissions by up to 30% compared to virgin polyester and that’s why since Nike has been using rPoly since 2010 to produce football kits.
The 21/22 Chelsea FC Away kit will be available to Nike Members from 29th July from nike.com and on full retail from 5th August.
