Chelsea’s home kit for the 2026\/27 season has leaked online, and it could be one of the worst kits ever made.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Premier League is hardly known for its fashion, with clubs across the top flight releasing some truly horrific kits in recent years.<\/p>\n

This season, the worst undoubtedly has to be Manchester City’s bizarre raindrop-inspired third kit proudly displaying ‘rain or shine’ on the back to show how hardcore they are.<\/p>\n

However, it’s far from the only offender, with Liverpool’s seemingly McDonald’s-inspired 2021-22 third kit and Manchester United’s grey heavily-sponsored 1995-96 away kit some of the worst in Premier League history.<\/p>\n

The kits for the 2026-27 season have not yet been revealed, so we don’t quite know for sure which club’s will impress or disappoint with their releases for the new season.<\/p>\n

But, if the leaks are to be believed, Chelsea fans shouldn’t get their hopes up because their new home kit looks like it could take the throne as the worst Premier League kit ever made.<\/p>\n

As revealed by FootyHeadlines, the new home jersey combines the club’s royal blue with gold and white, with a minimalist version of the badge and the Nike swish on either side of the chest.<\/p>\n

So far so good, right?<\/p>\n

But that’s not the main feature of the kit, as the shirt is also set to include a massive badge faded across the entire shirt just to make sure nobody misses it.<\/p>\n

Chelsea fans will be relived to hear that it’s not all bad news, as the in-your-face design of the home kit is not reflected in the leaked away and third kits, both of which are actually really nice. <\/p>\n

The away kit features a classic combo that never fails, with an all black kit without any ridiculous background graphics, and simple gold trims on the beck and sleeves.<\/p>\n

Reminiscent of London rival Arsenal’s 2022-2023 away kit, it’s likely that this jersey will be just as much of a success.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile the third kit is equally nice with a white base combined with red and blue throughout the jersey,<\/p>\n

The standout part of Chelsea’s 2026\/27 third kit is the retro crest on the top left of the kit, replacing the new badge selected last year to mark the club’s 120th anniversary. <\/p>\n

It is unknown when exactly the kits will be fully revealed, but they are expected to be on sale sometime in summer 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
