    THAT shirt would make a fine kit in itself, just add in the Adidas and Arsenal logos and Emirates sponsorship and you've got yourself one hell of a kit for the ages, would that make a good prematch/warmup or training kit or what!!!

    Had not seen or heard this. A quick google search didn't share the financial terms, but hopefully they are substantially better than our current deal. We sit top of the prem and have one of they youngest rosters in Europe - seems like it's in both AFC and Adidas' best interests to extend if the commercial side is favorable.

    75M GBP/season for a kit deal with Adidas sounds like a great deal...for now...until the other clubs catch up.

    i mean, that's how it always work, though. bryce harper's deal set the new bar and now 27M AAV is . . . . not anywhere near top of the chart. same with every new QB deal in NFL.

    what is the 75M in comparison with our previous deal?

    EDIT to add: this is saying the old was 60M. that's a chonky bump. well played.

    I've never seen these gold and navy sweatshirts, and this is an instant impulse buy for me. But I can't find these for sale anywhere online, including the official team store. Does anyone know where I can locate and purchase one?

    Might be too new, so just haven't been released to the gen pop yet.

    Thanks. Major bummer I never saw that. I strongly prefer kit/gear without big sponsor logos on them.

    Yes - I'm well aware of the "adidas" across the front, but I'm totally cool with that one.

    Admittedly, it's been a little while since I've bought Arsenal merch, outside of a visit to the Emirates a few years ago, but I've been relatively disappointed with the options I've seen at the end of last season/start of this season. I'm getting to the point in my life where I'm old, and I'd rather wear Arsenal clothing vs. jersey or warm-up top. I'd love to see more of that stuff like the sweatshirt for sale.

    I still have a Nike Arsenal jacket from 2007 or 2008 that I still wear, and amazed its still in amazing condition.
    And I still have a puma jacket from our first year with them too. Yet to buy any of the adidas merch but at some point I will.

    I'm much the same as you. Last Arse gear I bought was back in 2012 when I was in London and saved up for the Armory. Nike was still sponsor then, so bought a home jersey, the 125th anniversary warm-up jacket, and retro kit for the 88-89 season.

    I still have the jacket and retro kit, but I'm really liking what Adidas is putting out now, so official gear is basically all I'll be asking for Christmas and my birthday.

    I still have the redcurrant jacket from 05/06 season, hoodies from 04/05 that look really good still, Nike makes fantastic, durable products.

    Kit sales are very strong with this one. Lots of fans giving into the dark side. Might partly explain why adidas already re-upped with us.

    To be fair, the mock away kit doing the rounds looked really good but the actual away kit looks great too.

    So does anyone have the inside scoop on when/whether Adidas plans to make the away kit available for sale again?? I mean, it's sold out everywhere....

    Impossible to get anywhere I have been unless you want the kids sizes. Don't think I have slimmed down enough from an adults XL to a childs M though :ROFLMAO:

    It’s missing “da da, dada, da, da, da” before the name, but I think it’s a keeper. Nice choice.

    Awesome! Love when people get crack CBs.....I still have my black puma kit with Kos on the back. These adidas kits are much more durable than those Pumas too.

    Anyone who needed the black kit, GET IT TODAY! Within 2 days I think they'll be sold out. And there probably won't be another re-stock, barring a miracle. @mebeSajid
