The 2025/26 Premier League season is underway, and Chelsea FC has rolled out their latest set of kits from Nike, blending modern design with nods to the club's storied history. As always, football fans have taken to social media, forums, and review sites to share their thoughts, ranging from ecstatic praise to the occasional critique.

The Home Kit: Classic Blue with a Subtle Twist

Chelsea's home kit for 2025/26 sticks to the iconic "Rush Blue" base, accented with "Speed Red" and white details for a clean, minimalist look. The design features a subtle print inspired by London's architecture, giving it a sophisticated edge without straying too far from tradition.

Opinions across Social Media are overall very positive towards the home shirt. When the first leaks came out online, people were concerned about the orange/red theme to the shirt, however upon release it doesn't impact the kit in any way with just a stripe down the side of the shirt and shorts.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10 – Reliable and elegant, this kit resonates as a fan favourite for everyday wear, evoking Chelsea's blue heritage without unnecessary flair.

The Away Kit: Bold Off-White with Retro Vibes

The away kit introduces an off-white "Phantom" base paired with "Galactic Jade" (a dark military green) and red accents, creating a fresh version of the Chelsea 1974/75 shirt. Leaked colour concepts built hype months in advance, and the final product was used in the FIFA Club World Cup, adding to its visibility.

The most memorable goal in this kit so far was Joao Pedro's two debut goals in the Club World Cup against Thiago Silva's Fluminense.

Fan reactions online were overall very positive of the shirt, with older fans loving the remake of the Mid 70s shirt. When Didier Drogba did a photoshoot in the shirt, that also built up huge fan excitement on social media.

Overall Rating: 9/10 – Edgy and versatile, this kit's military-inspired tones have won over most fans, making it a strong contender for the season's standout away strip.

The Third Kit: A Throwback Masterpiece in Black and Silver

Arguably the star of the show, Chelsea's third kit revives a black and silver palette from the 2004/05 Mourinho era, trimmed with royal blue for a modern Chelsea twist. Launched with behind-the-scenes fanfare, it draws inspiration from the club's glory days, blending nostalgia with contemporary style.

The most memorable goal in that kit was Didier Drogba's first goal for the club against Crystal Palace back in 2004. The day King Didier made his mark for the club and would go on to score many more for the club, including 9 goals in major finals for the club.

The new Chelsea third shirt made it's debut against West Ham in Gameweek 2 of the Premier League. A Five Star performance from the Blues blew the Hammers away at the London Stadium. Estevao Willian's got the Player of the Match award in his first Premier League start after filling in for Cole Palmer, getting an assist for Enzo Fernandez.

Overall Rating: 10/10 – Nostalgic yet fresh, this kit has captured hearts as a potential all-time classic, with fans raving about its design and historical ties.

In summary, Nike has delivered a strong lineup for Chelsea this season, with ratings reflecting a positive shift toward designs that honour the past while looking forward. The third kit edges out as the crowd-pleaser, but all three have generated buzz worthy of the Blues. Whether you're grabbing one from the megastore or debating online, these kits are sparking conversations—and that's the mark of a successful release.
