Arsenal supporters will see the club’s new 2025/26 third kit in action during pre-season, ahead of the start of the Premier League campaign.

Arsenal are set to launch their 2025/26 third kit on Monday, 4 August, and while it could be worn sooner against Villarreal midweek, it will be definitely flaunted next Saturday as Arsenal host Athletic Club in the Emirates Cup, according to AFCFixtureNews.

The club unveiled their home strip in the latter stages of last season, featuring the traditional red and white palette complemented by a gothic ‘A’ pattern derived from the Victoria Concordia Crescit crest first utilised during the 1949/50 season. The away kit, launched last month, pays homage to the cult classic 1995-96 design through its navy blue foundation and distinctive lightning bolt graphics.

Initial reports suggest the third kit incorporates a predominantly white base with maroon accents and gold detailing, echoing design elements from the 2007/09 third strip manufactured by Adidas’ competitor, Nike. The garment features a classic polo collar enhanced by sophisticated stripe detailing, and the shirt is coupled with maroon shorts and white socks.

The goalkeeper shirt, which will be worn by the likes of David Raya and summer signing Kepa Arrizabalaga, has a green base, with faint darker green stripes.

The fan version of the shirt is expected to be available for £85.00, while the authentic version which features air-cooling technology as worn by the players, is expected to be set at £120.00.

Arsenal donning their third kit during competitive matches has proved to be a rare sight in recent seasons, with the away kit tending to be capable of usage without a kit clash.

After Arsenal debut the third kit in the pre-season friendlies at The Emirates, they travel to Old Trafford to face Manchester United to open their respective Premier League campaigns.
