I'm 6'5", so I'd feel stupid in a Jesus or Saka shirt. I would have bought a Kos shirt years ago, except it's taken me forever to get over my "wearing someone else's jersey " phobia. Where I grew up, it wasn't cool to wear a team "jersey" as a fan. If you wanted a jersey, you needed to make the team, so to speak. That mindset has certainly changed over time. I finally got over it. As far as your "buy now" assessment, I'd say you're probably right. Regardless of how long they think they'll last, I doubt they were able to produce as many as they could sell right now.
I'm liking both. I'm still reluctant to buy anything with the Emirates logo on it, but that top kit may break my preference.
This club continues to find more great ways to take my money. That classic crest always pulls at my heart strings. Paying homage to those that came before 👊— Arsenal (@Arsenal) December 2, 2022 The launch video is pretty funny, too.

That sweater with the badge front and center...OOOOOF~! Looks like they would've worn that in the mid 80s, a shirt like that not the sweater.
One shirt stands out for me in this new collection: the 88-89 home shirt. I’m only rarely tempted by personal gear but this one might just get me.
Has anyone had good/bad experiences ordering gear from the Club's official US website? I'm dealing with their customer service (some 3rd party), and it's inconvenient, slow, and unaccommodating. I received some Adidas training pants as a Christmas gift. The waist and length were perfect, but the material isn't stretchy, and the pants wrap around my ankles and calves like a compression sock to the point I worry I will rip the fabric when I move. Since the fit otherwise is good, I initiated a return and requested to exchange for a different store item since waist and pant length wouldn't be ideal anymore if I sized up. 2.5 weeks and 4 emails later, I just got an email stating I had to order the same pants at a size up.
The best range of Arsenal gear was the Nike years. I follow and interact with the main designer for that time on IG and this current sh*t we are wearing just doesn't compare but it is what it is.
1618240291567173635 is not a valid tweet id Won't be worn in games, but this is pretty sweet. They really need to make a home shirt with just the cannon, it's so clean.
4 weeks later, I'm still trying to return some NWT training pants with the official Arsenal store that were a Christmas gift. Hopefully I can get some of this new culture wear assuming they approve the exchange...
I wish adidas also sold some of newer stuff on their site, returns are so freaking easy for big stores like Nike Adidas Amazon and so on..
Seconded. P For sure. I’m an adidas club member, and I get deals on their gear all the time. And much, much easier to do business with. I just emailed the team store again today requesting an update. I have’t received any notable updates from them since 1/17. I got an auto-response on 1/20 that they were reviewing my return, but no updates since then…
A miss for me. I prefer when the sleeve color doesn't extend onto the chest. Having it rounded feels very early 2000s. Don't like the gold tone with that shade of red either; the red needs to be darker. Way too many stripe elements on the away shirt.
I'll only like the gold trim on that rumored home kit if we actually win the League this year. Even then, I might like that kit better with Navy stripes and trim rather than the gold.
