Official Jerseys

Here are the official, original Arsenal jerseys from adidas.

Arsenal's home shirt for the 2023/24 season celebrates the 20th anniversary of the 'Invincibles' season with a bold new look.

Inspired by the kit worn by the record-breaking team, the shirt features a new shade of deep red, with white sleeves and a lightning bolt pattern running vertically from top to bottom.

The new kit is inspired by the spirit and attitude of the 2003/04 'Invincibles' team, marking the start of Arsenal's 20th unbeaten Premier League season. The Arsenal crest, adidas logo and the three stripes along each sleeve are all in gold, while the team's record of 26 wins and 12 draws in 38 games in that historic season is engraved on the side of the authentic version of the kit.

Arsenal legend Ray Parlour said: "Playing that season 20 years ago, surrounded by so many wonderful players, is something I'll never forget, and it's great to see that we're celebrating our club's history by unveiling this new home shirt - I think all the fans will really enjoy it.

Arsenal's away kit for 2023/24 celebrates the club's roots in Islington: the eye-catching shirt features flowing black lines inspired by the Islington neighbourhood map. The design represents the journeys fans make out of the club's home borough for away trips.  The cool base colour - shock yellow - is complemented by blue accents on the collar and sleeves.

The authentic versions of the jerseys are made with HEAT.RDY technology, optimised to make players feel comfortable while performing on the biggest stage, thanks to moisture-wicking fabric technology that absorbs moisture and dries quickly. The replica versions feature AEROREADY technology, which uses absorbent and breathable materials to keep the body dry.

Designed to support players in their performance, these jerseys are made from 100% recycled materials, representing just one of adidas' solutions to help end plastic waste.

Find out the difference between authentic and replica football shirts: Questions and answers

In the world of football, team jerseys are one of the most desired items by fans. However, it can be difficult to understand the difference between authentic and replica jerseys. In this guide, we will answer the 5 most frequently asked questions about this distinction to help you make the right choice when buying your favourite jersey.

What is the difference between authentic and replica football shirts?

Authentic football shirts are the same shirts worn by players during official matches. They are made of high-quality materials, such as breathable and lightweight fabrics, and feature official club details and logos. Replica jerseys, on the other hand, are cheaper, non-identical versions of the originals, made for the fans.

What are the characteristics of authentic football shirts?

Authentic jerseys are made of premium materials, offering optimal comfort and performance during sporting activity. They feature advanced technologies such as mesh panels for ventilation and breathability, durable seams and carefully finished details. They are the ideal option for true fans looking for authenticity.

What makes replica jerseys different from authentic jerseys?

Replica jerseys are a cheaper version of authentic jerseys. Although they feature the club's logos and colours, they may have slightly different details and lower quality fabrics. However, they are still a great choice for fans who want to support their team with an official product at a more affordable price.

What are the advantages of replica jerseys?

Replica jerseys are more affordable than authentic jerseys, making them a popular choice for many fans. Although they may have some differences in detail from the jerseys worn by the players, they still retain the official design and allow fans to show their support for their favourite team.

How do I choose between an authentic jersey and a replica?

The choice between an authentic jersey and a replica depends on your personal preferences and budget. If you want a more authentic experience and have the possibility to invest more, the authentic jersey might be the ideal choice. If, on the other hand, you are looking for a cheaper option that still allows you to show your support for the team, the replica jersey will be perfect for you.
