Arsenal have had some truly jazzy kits over the years – from the fluorescent 2023/24 away kit to the zig-zagged navy and red third strip from 2021/22, and of course, the iconic ‘bruised banana’ away shirt of the early 1990s.
Now, they have another bold design to add to the collection – this time in the form of a new 2025/26 pre-match shirt.
Inspired by London’s legendary Caribbean street celebration, the Notting Hill Carnival, Arsenal’s latest pre-match jersey is every bit as vibrant as the festival itself.
Yellow, black and blue are blended together in a striking brushstroke and feather pattern that looks more suited to a Caribbean beach than a chilly North London pitch.
But the jersey is just the start – the launch is part of a wider lifestyle collection that Arsenal have dubbed the 'Festival' pack.
It includes matching shorts, a reversible bucket hat, track top, hoodie and t-shirt, all extending the carnival narrative with street-ready flair and colour.
Drawing inspiration from adidas’ classic Urban Pursuit training gear from the 2000s – recognisable for its distinct panelling and seam details – the rest of the lifestyle collection is just as striking, though the standout pieces are the track top and matching shorts. Featuring a bold yellow-and-blue design, they unmistakably nod to the iconic ‘bruised banana’ kit.
Whether you’re heading to the Emirates Stadium, dancing through Carnival, or kicking back on a beach, this drop delivers a funky fit for every occasion.
All items from the collection are available now via Arsenal and adidas’ official online stores.
