Chelsea 2026-27 home kit, release date & price
The Chelsea 2026-27 home kit is here, and following fan consultation, the club crest has been refreshed and interwoven proudly into the fabric on the front of the shirt. The Bright Blue fabric features a collar and button-down neck, with Midwest Gold accents for the rampant lion and Nike swoosh.
The iconic rampant lion is a feature of the Chelsea badge following Ted Drake’s arrival at the Blues 75 seasons ago, and its claw marks take centre stage this year. Appearing on walls, beach murals and at concerts, a series of sightings around the world built noise beyond the boundaries of traditional storytelling.
The replica kit is priced at £89.99, with the authentic version available for £134.99.

Chelsea’s 2026/27 away kit by Nike marks a striking return to a solid black base, their first black away shirt since their 2016/17 Premier League title–winning campaign. Designed around an "Unleash The Lion" concept, the kit features vibrant "Midwest Gold" accents, including engineered ribs on the shoulders and a standalone Chelsea lion crest in place of the full club badge. A laurel wreath motif borders the round collar and sleeve cuffs, creating design continuity with the home kit, while matching black shorts and golden socks complete the set.
The replica kit is priced at £89.99, with the authentic version available for £134.99.
Chelsea 2026-27 third kit, release date & price
The third kit leaks point to a mainly white shirt, with red and blue detailing. It looks like we could have a vintage club logo return for this one, with royal blue detailing on the neck, side panels and sleeve cuffs finishing off the look.
Overall, it's all pointing towards something clean and fresh to finish off the trio of kits. As with all early leaks, final positioning of logos and trim details could still change before release.
