Leaked images of Arsenal 2025/26 third kit have surfaced online, unveiling a design that could rank among the club’s most stylish offerings in recent memory. Crafted by Adidas, the new strip is expected to be officially released in August or September 2025, but early glimpses on social media have already generated major buzz among fans.
The kit features a sleek white base adorned with maroon and gold detailing, an unmistakable homage to the iconic Nike third kit worn by the Gunners between 2007 and 2009. The standout design includes a classic polo collar trimmed with maroon and gold stripes, while maroon logos, including the iconic Arsenal cannon, further enhance the vintage appeal. Gold accents also appear on the sleeves and collar, evoking memories of Arsenal ’s famous 2-0 Champions League win over AC Milan at the San Siro in 2008.

The cannon crest, prominently used during the 2024/25 “Year of the Cannon” theme, is expected to remain on the third kit, while the traditional club crest will return on the home kit. However, one detail remains uncertain: the sleeve sponsor. The “Visit Rwanda” partnership is due to expire at the end of the 2024/25 season, and there has been no official word on whether it will be renewed or replaced.

The third kit is anticipated to make its debut during early away or European fixtures and will follow the release of Arsenal’s home and away kits. The home kit revives a classic red-and-white look with a Gothic-style ‘A’ pattern, while the away kit draws inspiration from the bold lightning bolt design of the 1995/96 season, both of which have received a warm reception from supporters.
Though Arsenal have yet to confirm the design officially, the leaks have only heightened fan excitement for a kit that merges club heritage with modern sophistication. With pre-season fixtures against AC Milan, Newcastle United, and Tottenham Hotspur on the horizon, supporters are already eager to see the Gunners sporting what could become a modern classic.
The kit is expected to be available through Arsenal official store, Adidas outlets, and major sports retailers like Sports Direct.
