Premier League: Matchweek 23 Kit Review

The Premier League games completed for January with Matchweek 23, and we are 60% of the way through the season! These were the reverse fixtures from the opening weekend of the season, Matchweek 1.

You can find last week’s report here

The current Kit Overview for Premier League is below.

Matchweek 23 Fixtures

Total Kits Used

  • Kits Worn in Total – 90 (No new Kits this Matchweek)
  • Goalkeeper Kits – 69 (+1 New Kit this Matchweek)

New Kits this Matchweek

There were no new outfield kits this weekend, only the second Matchweek that this has happened this season (first being Matchweek 19).

There was one new Goalkeeper Kit used, with Manchester City debuting their AI Designed Kit (designed by Ederson, Stefan Ortega and Rico Lewis).

Kit Highlights

Leicester City became the first team to use a Kit 20 times this season, in just 23 games they have worn their Home Kit 20 times!

Some interesting sock usage by Everton’s Iliman Ndiaye, with what appears at first glance to be an alternative pair of socks used (yellow) with rest of the team being in dark grey socks. Thanks to @_luke1878_ on “X” the answer seems to be “cuts his socks short and wears them upside down, so it looks like his socks are a different colour” – it also he appeared he done the same thing when Everton played Manchester City wearing alternative yellow socks with this kit, his socks looked the opposite!

This week saw 15 teams in their Home Kit, this was the most Home Kits used in a single Matchweek since the first round of fixtures, which were also the reverse round of fixtures

My favourite Kit Match Up of this Matchweek was the game between Brighton & Hove Albion and Everton, a nice of balance of colours and with the accents of yellow on both kits, it seems to work well!

Kit Stats

Overall we have seen 15 Home Kits, 3 Away Kits and 2 3rd Kits

There was just the single variation seen over these fixtures.

  • Newcastle United – Away with alternative white shorts, 2nd time used

Kit Grid – Up to 27th January

Kit News

Manchester City who used their AI Generated Goalkeeper kit this weekend have also announced the 10 options for their 3rd Kit for 2026 / 27 season, which was created via AI by fans and kit designers out there… you can vote for your favourite here

Tottenham Hotspur used alternative navy socks with their Home Kit at Everton.

Kit Highlights

Liverpool used an alternative kit look for the first time since 2022 / 23 season, which was also against Brentford, this game was just over 2 years ago on 2nd January 2023! This also means that Liverpool have worn four kits in the last four games.

Aston Villa, used their 9th Kit Variation of the season, the most kit looks used by a club in Premier League so far this season. The nine kits consist of three different Home Kit Looks, four Away and now two 3rd Kits..! They have worn two new kit looks in their last two games.

Southampton continued their of defeats in their Away kit, making it nine loses in nine games in their yellow and navy kit.

My favourite Kit Match Up of this Matchweek was the game between Everton and Tottenham Hotspur, when a club makes a small change to their kit to avoid a clash is something I can appreciate, so the navy socks enabling these clubs to remain in their traditional looks was a highlight for me this weekend.

Kit Stats

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

There were three variations seen over these fixtures.

  • Liverpool – Away with alternative white socks
  • Tottenham Hotspur – Home with alternative Navy socks
  • Wolverhampton Wanderers- Home with alternative Old Gold shorts, 3rd time used

My favourite Kit Match Up of the weekend was the game between Brentford and West Ham United, I do love a Kit Mash up, and seeing different elements of kits being used together, so seeing the Black Away Shirt and Shorts paired with Home Socks was always going to be popular with me, matched against the Brentford Kit just seemed to work well!

Kit Stats

A couple of variations seen this weekend, both mentioned above as they used for the first time

Kit News

Manchester United have launched their “George Best” Collection, inspired by their iconic player and winner of Ballon d’Or in 1968 and European Cup in the same year, the collection takes influence for the kit worn in that final at Wembley and includes a tracksuit jacket, trousers and a long sleeve shirt containing Best’s signature and the number 7 in the same style used on those kits.

Another team in the Adidas family also released a retro range this week, with Newcastle United launching of their “Originals” range. The shirt is a cracker, many fans and kit lovers expressing their preference to this shirt of the current Home Shirt.

Chelsea are rumoured to be close to reaching an agreement for their front of shirt sponsorship, the club are talks with three major Airlines, belived to be Qatar Airways, Riyahd Air and Turkish Airlines, with the deal expected to be annouced in the coming weeks. I would expect the new shirt sponsor will be debuted after the next International Break in October.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments below or at @Kit_Geek and I will be back later this week with Champions League, Match 2 and then after next weekend’s fixtures for Premier League.

My favourite Kit Match Up of the weekend was the game between Aston Villa and Arsenal, for the second week in a row I have gone for Adidas v Adidas but both these kits being used for the first time this season really worked together and the Arsenal Away kit looked better in action that I was expecting!

Premier League – Matchweek 1

Premier League: Top Trumps 2023/24

I like to look at Football Kits and Kit Stats in many ways, one way that I wanted to revisist for the previous seasons was a Top Trump format.

So for those of a certain age will know all about Top Trumps, so for this set I have looked at the kits of each of the 20 Premier League Teams, Home, Away and Third kits and stats around these kits, the stats I have picked are the following:

  • League Games Worn – How many league games was the kit (and variations) worn
  • Variations of Kit – The number of variations of that kit were worn
  • Games Won – Number of games won wearing the kit(s)
  • Points Won – Number of points won wearing the kit(s)
  • Points per game – The average number of points per game (total points / games worn) per kit

I have highlighted the “Top Trump” in each section in “Gold and Black”.

The cards by each team….

There they are, 60 Top Trump cards… any surprises there, Wolverhampton Wanderers points per game in their change kits, Tottenham Hotspur scoring 54 points in their home kit, Luton Town’s 4 variations of their 3rd Kit?

What would you consider as the overall “Top Trump” card, Manchester City Home Kit or something else?

Are there any other stats that you think I should haved used for future Top Trump looks at Football Kits.

Please let me know over at @Kit_Geek on Twitter or in the comments below.

Match 1 to Match 19

Match 20 to Match 38

Kit Grid

Below is a graphic of what kits where worn against what teams, its one that I share on a weekly basis on my Twitter Account – @Kit_Geek

Kit Tables

One area I like to look at is a team’s performance in their kit, I have created the below tables (Home, Away and 3rd Kit), all shirt variations are included in each section, e.g. Manchester United’s 6 Home Kit variations are all included in the “Home Kit” Table and based on “Points per Game” used ratio.

Please also note, as these are the match performances in each kit, I have not taken into account the points deductions for Everton and Nottingham Forest.

Home Kits

No surprises at the top of table, with Manchester City heading the table up with 2.37 points per game in their Home Kit, followed by Arsenal (2.32) and Liverpool (2.22). Manchester City scoring 64 Points in Home Kits.

Only the three relegated teams scored less than a point a game when in their Home Kit.

Away Kits

Arsenal are the stand out team in their Away Kit this season, 2.58 points per game and huge 31 points in total (out a possible 36), Manchester City the only other team above 2 points per game (2.33).

Wolverhampton Wanderers ended the season with 1.67 points per game in their Away Kit are another team to call out, finishing with the 4th best performance here, after having the 4th worst performance in their Home Kit!

There were only 8 teams with a better record than a point per game, Sheffield United who wore their Away 15 times in 19 Away games, only managed 6 points here at 0.40 points per game!

3rd Kits

Champions Manchester City were the only team to have a 100% win record in a kit, with 6 points from the 2 games in their 3rd Kit!

Another 4 teams managed to scored over 2 points per game and over, with Liverpool 2.25, Aston Villa, Chelsea and Wolverhampton Wanderers all scoring 2 points per game!

Manchester United managed 14 points in their 3rd Kit, the most points scored here.

We also had 3 teams that failed to score a point in their 3rd Kit, relegated teams Sheffield United and Burnley were joined by Premier League Runners Up Arsenal, only wearing their 3rd kit once and losing at Fulham.

Summary and Highlights

There were plenty of discussion points through the season with the kits used, some of the highlights for me are the following:

Lets start with Manchester United, who for the second season in a row wore a staggering 6 different Home Kit Variations, again like last season this mainly due to the socks worn, with 3 different pairs of black socks worn with the Home Kit this season, with the default pair (white cuffed with pattern), and 2 pairs of Teamwear socks, one with Adidas wordmark and one with just Adidas “3 Stripes”

And with 5 different change kit used as well, makes a total of 11 Different Kit looks used this season, this includes two different looks of the 3rd Kit, however they were one of the four teams that did use their 3rd Kit in it’s default look, which was with red socks.

Although Luton Town ended the season relegated from the League, they have provided football fans with plenty of entertainment through out the season, including us Kit Lovers… Their three kits were proved to be very interchangable and they ended up using 10 Different Kit Variations this season, with two Home Kit Looks, four Away Kit and four 3rd Kits, all maintaining the overall Luton Town feel to the kits… thank you to Denis at Museum of Jerseys for this wonderful overview of the kits, which can also be found here.

The most worn outfield kit look was Brighton & Hove Albion’s Home Kit which was worn 28 times out of the 38 Games, this kit was also worn once with white shorts and socks at Luton Town, so Home was worn 29 times in total. Chelsea did wear their Home Kit 30 times in total, with 26 in it’s default look and 4 times with alternative blue socks but as a single look the Brighton Home Kit takes it!

Arsenal ended the season wearing their Away Kit 12 times in their 19 Away games, and amassed 31 Points out of 36, winning 10 of the games in this wonderful kit..!

Liverpool were unbeaten in their Away Kit, playing 7 games winning 3 and drawing 4 of those matches.

The single most worn kit of the 2023/24 Premier League Season, was a goalkeeper kit and the first choice kit of Everton, which was worn in 29 of the 38 games this season!

Sheffield United gave us one of my favourite kit “Easter Eggs” of the season, they wore alternative red socks with Home, Away and 3rd Kits this season, with none of the kits having red socks as part of their default look!

Compared to previous seasons it was a fairly uneventful period for goalkeeper kits in 23/24, no mash ups, no unusual elements to the kits and with 15 teams in the expected 3 goalkeeper kits, there were two clubs (Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest) who used just 2 kits all season and another two clubs, Arsenal and Brentford who used 4 kits… Liverpool also used 4 Goalkeeper kits, with their 24/25 Kits being used in the final game of the season.

Arsenal – used 3 different templates, but one with Black Shorts (the default look for The Gunners) and Green Shorts, as seen by several other Adidas Supplied clubs.

Brentford – were the only team to use 4 different kit looks for their goalkeepers.

There we have it…
