My favourite “Kit Match Up” of the Matchweek was the game between Bournemouth and Wolves, the Bournemouth Home kit is one of my favourite in Premier League this season, matched up an interesting 3rd Kit from Wolves delivered us a nice looking Kit Match up!

Kit News
Crystal Palace have now released their Away Kit, called “Eagle White” – there was rumours of the kit being delayed as it resembled an Olympique Lyonnais but we will leave that up to you to decide.
Chelsea have released their 3rd Kit for the season, one of the Nike Total 90 remakes, this is based on the colours worn by Chelsea in those years, however this was an Umbro Kit at the time. This kit also carries the same crest worn with this kit (I am reluctant to say retro given it was only 20 years ago)!
Aston Villa are another team to launch their 3rd Kit, as they are now are of the Adidas Elite teams it means they get the “Trefoil” treatment with their kit. This is shirt is draws direct inspiration from the signature stained glass windows with Villa Park.

The 2025 / 26 Premier League Season has now kicked off and just like the last couple of seasons, I will be taking a more in depth look into the Kits each Matchweek, along with any relevant Premier League Kit News!
The current Kit Overview for Premier League is below:
We have 53* out of 60 Kits released so far… with just 7 Teams left to officially release their final Kits (*Fulham 3rd Shorts and socks to be confirmed).
Matchweek 1 Fixtures
Total Kits Used
Kits Worn in Total – 20
Goalkeeper Kits – 20
New Kits this Matchweek
Of course all kits this week are being used for the first time this season, more details will appear in this section as we move through the season and new kit looks / variations are used.
Kit Highlights
Chelsea start the season for a third time in a row with no front of shirt sponsor, however they do carry the “Club World Cup” Champions patch, which will be worn until the tournament is next played, likely to be in four years time.
There were just two kit variation used in these opening fixtures.
Fulham wore their magnificent neon green Away Kit (based on 1998 to 2000 Away Kit).
And Everton wore All Blue at Leeds United.
It did not take long to give us our first goalkeeper mash up of the season, with Newcastle United in the 2nd game of the weekend. Using their first choice keeper colours of blue, this was paired with white outfield socks (Home Alternative) to avoid the sock clash with Aston Villa.
More Goalkeeper Kit highlights from the weekend, Tottenham Hotspur went with last season’s template in their opening game, however it was not last season’s kit as this one had the inverted Nike Ticks (which was worn with 3rd Kits last season). One theory with this is a supply issue of the new goalkeeper kits, Pink and Blue versions of the new Nike Template.
My favourite “Kit Match Up” of the Matchweek was the game between Nottingham Forest and Brentford, one of the nicest Home Kits in Forest matched with Brentford’s lovely 3rd Kit gave us a great looking match!
Kit Stats
Overall we have seen 13 Home Kits, 3 Away and 4 Third Kits in action.
There was just the two Kit variations used in this Matchweek
Fulham – Away with alternative neon green shorts / socks, all neon.
Everton – Home with alternative blue shorts, all blue
Kit Grid – Up to 19th August

A reminder that I will take a regular look at the Kits launched across the English Leagues and beyond, the discussion points and anything else Kit Related that comes up over these pre-season weeks.
I will only share those kits that have been officially released, as there are plenty of leaks that do the rounds but we will keep those official launches.
You will also find my Kit Overview illustrations for each of the four divisions which will used to document the Kit Usage of all 92 English Clubs.
Premier League – 25 / 60 Kits
New Kits:
Nottingham Forest, Home: Well this is a great looking kit, the pinstripes is a nod to kits of the past for Nottingham Forest but this one may be one of the best, the “Garibaldi Red” pinstripe gives the shirt a little more depth, but overall a cracker in my eyes.
Crystal Palace, Home: Macron have delivered one the nicest Home Kits in their relationship, introducing white into the shirt, with white pinstripes with the shirts and white sleeve “tapping”.
AFC Bournemouth, Home: Another nice offering in terms of Home Kit from Umbro for Bournemouth, you just cannot go wrong, however this is a shirt that is let down by the sponsor but luckily there is an option for sponsor-less version for fans to buy.
Aston Villa, Home: Aston Villa are in their second season with Adidas and their new Home Kit fits the current Adidas template, with some gold trim and details which pays tribute to the Holte End at Villa Park.
Manchester United, Away: Manchester United introduce a new colour to their away kit this season, using lilac and plum, this is a kit that is using the classic “snowflake” pattern from their early 90s Away Kit, however much larger in the design than that kit, paired with plum shorts and lilac socks, there are also alternative lilac shorts which I am sure we will see through out the season.
Championship – 30 / 72 Kits
New Kits:
Queen’s Park Rangers, Away: QPR are another team that often look to their past for inspiriation of their change kits, this one looks back 50 years to 1975 / 76 season where they finished 2nd in the old First Division, using pink to give it a modern twist.
Bristol City, 3rd: A funky looking kit is the first offering from Bristol City and O’Neills this season, this all black kit has neon flashes across the shirt (almost northern lights like).
Coventry City, Home: Hummel and Coventry continue their productive relationship, a nice looking kit for this season. It will be all Sky Blue with the rest of the kit in the same shade.
Wrexham, Away: Following a similar template to the home kit, Wrexham’s Away is inspired by colours of the Daffodil, the Welsh National Flower, this will be the first time the club have worn yellow and green since the 90s.
Sheffield United, 3rd: This 3rd Kit is another shirt that is looking to home location for inspiration, this time it is the cultural aspect of the city of Sheffield “Thread Through the Noise, begins at one of Sheffield’s most storied cultural landmarks: The Leadmill. A cornerstone of the city’s music scene since 1980” .
Millwall, Away: A new colour for Millwall’s Away Kit palette, with an all “cream” or dare I day Ecru Kit, paired with navy and mint trim, another nice clean Millwall Kit for this season.
Hull City, Home: Kappa’s only team in English leagues is Hull City and it is a partnership that seems to deliver in terms of design, this season’s Home Kit is another wonderful looking shirt, with the use of “tiger stripes” on the sleeves and a return to amber as the first choice base colour .
Swansea City, Home: The kit launch you did not expect to see, Snoop Dogg and Swansea…. this kit is a “nod” to the Kit worn by 96 / 97 team that reached the Division 3 Play-Off Final under Jan Molby, the kit has a checkered pattern in collar and cuffs, which also appears more subtly within the shirt, shorts and socks.
Sheffield Wednesday, Home: Thicker stripes return for Sheffield Wednesday for this season, and those stripes contain SWFC within them, giving a retro vibe to the shirt. The kit will be matched with blue shorts and socks, the time this colour has been used since 2016 / 17 season.
League One – 43 / 72 Kits
New Kits:
Bradford City, Home: Bradford complete their set for their return to League One by launching their Home Kit, the claret shirt which will contain a thin stripe in amber is a change from the recent years but gives a nice balance in it’s look.
Luton Town, Away: Reflo are looking to make a mark and this away shirt certainly takes a chance, the use of white sleeves really breaks the shirt up and gives it a balance that works with the body of the shirt’s design.
Huddersfield Town, 3rd: This green and gold 3rd kit for Huddersfield Town is a nod to the Yorkshire heritage of the club, the colour is being called “Regal botanical garden green” and there is theme in floral tones with “the main body of the shirt subtly patterned with our floret and the unmistakable Yorkshire rose, the design is inspired by the idyllic hillsides and landscapes present across our home within God’s Own county”, one for those Yorkshire folk!
Port Vale, Away: Port Vale complete arguably the finest set of Retro Home and Away kits this season with this classic looking Away Kit as part of their 150th Anniversary celebrations. The Kit is inspired by the 110-goal title winners of 1958 / 59 Season.
Bolton Wanderers, Away: This all navy kit is a nice alternative to the Home Kit, and looks back to the club’s first European campaign 20 years ago.
League Two – 40 / 72 Kits
New Kits:
Walsall, 3rd: Another team to complete their Kit set, with an all light blue 3rd Kit, Walsall have be a team that have used their kits well in combining elements for Home, Away and 3rd Kits to provide alternative looks to avoid clashes, the black away shorts and shorts may combine well with this shirt, fingers crossed it’s something we will see this season!
Accrington Stanley, Home: Accrington going for a new look this season with this Home Kit, the shirt has a white chest and sleeves with details in red that then continue throughout the rest of the kit.
This week’s Kit News…..
Congratulations on Chelsea wining the FIFA Club World Cup, this will impact the club’s kits moving forward over the coming seasons as they will be wearing a “Champions Badge” on their shirts until the next competition scheduled at the moment for 4 years time!
Manchester City have announced an extension of their Kit Deal with Puma, it has been announced as a multi-year deal but being reported as a minimum of 10 years worth over £1bn throughout that period, this would make it the most lucrative Kit Deal in British Football History.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments below or over at my Socials…
The 2024 / 25 Premier League season ended with total of 113 different kits used by the 20 teams, you can find details of all of those kits in my in depth End of Season Kit Review, however of those 113 kits there was 33 kit looks that only got one appearance, these are our “One Kit Wonders”!
Thirteen teams used a kit look just once and for those regular readers and followers, there is no guessing which team provided the most of these….. lets take a closer look at these kits!
Arsenal – 2 Kits
Kicking off with Arsenal, the two kits they used just the once were in games 36 and 37 of the season, wearing alternative white shorts / socks with their Away kit and then in their final home game of the season they wore they 25 / 26 Home Kit.
Aston Villa – 10 Kits
Aston Villa who wore 13 Kits in total make up over 30% of the “One Kit Wonders” this season, with 10 Kits they wore just the single time! They had two Home Kit looks worn once, three Away Kit looks including a look they wore on the opening day of the season (sky blue shorts / socks) and the default Away look (with sky blue shorts), each of the four combinations of 3rd Kit usage was used just once and finally they wore their 25 / 26 Away Kit (with alternative white socks) in their final game of the season.
AFC Bournemouth – 2 Kits
Bournemouth were another team that used two different kits twice both kits were worn on visits to the Manchester clubs, with alternative purple shorts worn with their Away Kit against United and in Bournemouth’s final Away game of the season they used alternative red socks with their Home Kit playing City.
Brentford – 1 Kit
One of my Kit oddities of the season was the the appearance of Claret Socks with Brentford’s Away Kit at West Ham United. Initially it was believed that visitors had used a pair of change socks from their hosts but closer inspection shows that these were standard Umbro Teamwear socks, not from West Ham Kit room…!
Chelsea – 1 Kit
Chelsea are the only team in this list that wore a default kit look just once, their 3rd kit was only used once in Premier League at Brighton & Hove Albion.
Everton – 2 Kits
Everton wore three different variations of their Away Kit, two of these were seen just once, with yellow socks at Manchester City and yellow shorts at Chelsea!
Leicester City – 2 Kits
Leicester City used variations of Home Kit (with 3rd socks) and 3rd Kit with Navy socks, and as Everton were used at Manchester City and Chelsea.
Liverpool – 1 Kit
Liverpool just used the one alternative variation this season and this was the use of white socks with their Away kit at Brentford, these were bespoke alternative socks for this kit.
Manchester United – 5 Kits
Manchester United used ten different looks this season, five of these looks were used just once… with one Home Kit look, two Away and two 3rd Kits, all looks used bespoke alternatives to each of the kits, no mash ups.
Newcastle United– 3 Kits
With Newcastle United being another team using ten kit variations through the season they were always going to have a couple of kit looks used just the once, however it was only their Away Kit looks (white shorts / socks and navy short / white socks) that make up their 24 / 25 kit set that were used just the once, the third single use kit was their 25 / 26 Home Kit which they debuted in the final game of the season.
This also means that the Toon Army also wore the most kit variations multiple times, with 7 different kit looks being worn more than once.
Nottingham Forest – 2 Kits
Nottingham Forest wore their 3rd Kit in four different kit combos with white and sky blue shorts and socks, two of these looks were used once, blue shorts and white socks at Aston Villa and white shorts / socks at Crystal Palace.
Tottenham Hotspur – 1 Kit
Tottenham Hotspur used alternative navy socks with both Home and Away Kit, the Away kit look was used just the once at Southampton, this was also one of two victories in their Away Kit in eight games in total it was used.
West Ham United – 1 Kit
On the final day of the season West Ham United used their Home Kit with alternative sky blue shorts, this was their 3rd different Home Kit look of the season but the only time these shorts were used.
There we have all the 33 Kits worn just once in the Premier League this season.

If you are reading this then I am sure you have already seen my End of Season Kit Report for 2024 / 25 Premier League and taken the all the details here around Kit Usage this season and many of you will know about the Kit Stats that I share on my Socials through out the season.
I wanted to build on that and spend a little time with each of the 20 Teams and call out my favourite Kit Stat, Kit Tale, Story or general call out all the teams, although there are some teams with plenty to discuss regarding their kits, this will be my favourite observation per team.
Arsenal
7 Goalkeeper kits were worn by Arsenal, including the only “Mash Up” Goalkeeper Kit of the season, using the Yellow and Black versions of the Adidas Template to produce this wonderful look!
Aston Villa
The most kit variations used by a single team with 13 Kits in total but only 3 of these were worn more than once… Home Kit (Default Look) 23 times, Away with Home Shorts (All White) 3 times and Home with alternative claret shorts / socks was worn twice.
AFC Bournemouth
Alternative red socks worn at Manchester City in their final Away game of the season, this was the Club’s only variation look of their Home Kit this season.
Brentford
Brentford wore just one alternative variation from their three Kits this season and that was the appearance of Claret Socks at West Ham United. Initially it was believed that visitors had used a pair of change socks from their hosts but closer inspection shows that these were standard Umbro Teamwear socks, not from West Ham Kit room…!
Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton & Hove Albion scored the most points in a change kit in the Premier League this season, having scored 19 points in their Away Kit (worn in 14 games).
Chelsea
Chelsea only used their 3rd Kit once in the Premier League this season, worn at Brighton & Hove Albion. In fact this Kit was only worn twice domestically this season, both games against Brighton and within the same week (8th February, FA Cup and 14th February, Premier League).
Crystal Palace
Only variation of kit used by the club this season was in FA Cup Final, with their Home Kit paired with alternative white socks.
Everton
Everton wore their Away Kit in just four game this season but they did that using three different looks, with alternative yellow short and socks used.
Fulham
Fulham were another team that used a change kit just four time, this being their 3rd Kit, which they used twice with alternative white socks (although they do not appear to be Home socks as not carrying the FFC above the Adidas logo).
Ipswich Town
Ipswich Town’s Home was the single most worn outfield kit look this season, being worn 30 times in total.
Leicester City
Leicester City used alternative navy socks with 3rd Kit at Chelsea, a look that worked really well and my favourite for The Foxes this season.
Liverpool
Liverpool used the Nike Goalkeeper template in four different colours, the only Nike supplied team to do so (five if you included the green kit which they also wore with and without the inverted Nike Swoosh logo)!
Manchester City
Another team to wear four Goalkeeper kits was Manchester City, their fourth kit was one that partially created via AI with design input from Ederson, Stefan Ortega, and Rico Lewis, this was part of the promotional advertising for a competition for fans to design their 3rd Kit for 2026 / 27 season!
Manchester United
Manchester United were one of three teams to hit double figures for their Kit Variations this season, each of their three kits used light coloured short variations (White – Home, Light Grey – Away, Off White – 3rd).
Newcastle United
Newcastle United were one of the teams with double digit Kit Variations, wearing 10 Kit looks in total including all possible combinations of their Away Kit with its default and alternative shorts / socks.
Nottingham Forest
Most points scored in 3rd Kit, 16 Points in the 10 games (and 4 Variations) worn.

Wolves spent the final half of the season in their Home Kit, wearing it in the final 19 games. The last time they wore a change kit was 29th December and in total wore a change it just once in 24 games in six months, wearing alternative Old Gold Shorts on the road in the second half of the season in all but 1 game!

Manchester City’s Home Kit will feature a sash for the first time, something often seen in change kits over the years but will now adorn the Home Shirt.
Arsenal’s new Home Kit goes back to just red and white for classic look, the shirt also contains a repeating pattern using the Gothic “A” often seen used through out the club’s history.
Chelsea’s Home kit continues to their recent trend of adding a detailed pattern within the shirt, this one identified as one that “celebrates the city’s iconic architecture, with our classic royal blue paired with a new vibrant shade”. The kit does include some red / white flashes in the side panels that provide some change from recent season.
It’s not just new shirts getting some love this week, Brentford who’s deal with Umbro is ending in the coming weeks have come up with a unique way to use their remaining shirts. They are launching a limited run of bespoke shirts made by upcycling unused stock from the last four seasons’ Umbro football shirts. Created in collaboration with design platform (re)boot and ROW_____Z, the project aims to reduce textile waste and highlight sustainable fashion in football.
Each shirt is unique and handmade using parts of home, away and third kits worn during Brentford’s four Premier League seasons and available from the Club’s shop.

Brentford wore an interesting mash up at West Ham United, wearing claret socks with their Away Kit, we look at this in a little more detail shortly.
Kit Highlights
Newcastle United have now worn nine Kit Variations in Premier League this season, their look this weekend using alternative white socks with their Away Kit was their 4th different look, using all possible combinations now of navy and white shorts / socks.
Along with the four Away Kits, they have worn two Home Kit and three different 3rd Kit looks to make up the nine kits worn in total!
Brentford’s socks have caused some interesting debate this weekend, with the Pink socks of their Away Kit deemed to clash with West Ham United’s white Home socks, so Claret socks were used and at first glance it can easily be assumed that these were West Ham Socks of their 3rd kit but closer inspection, the West Ham socks carry gold Umbro detailing and thanks to @JohnSpenge on “X” who spotted they are actually current Umbro Teamwear socks. An enjoyable Kit Tale from this season!
My favourite Kit Match Up of this Matchweek was the game between Manchester City and Newcastle United, regular readers of these weekly round ups and followers will know that contrasting socks with kits are something that I am particularly found of, so this game with both teams in this look is always going to be a winner in my eyes!

Overall we have seen 14 Home Kits, 3 Away Kits and 3 3rd Kits
