Arsenal’s new Islington-inspired away shirt

Arsenal Football Club has unveiled its new away shirt for the upcoming 2023-24 season, drawing inspiration from the club’s origins in Islington.

The eye-catching design boasts a vibrant yellow color, accentuated by fluid black lines that symbolize the map of Arsenal’s home borough in North London.

In a departure from their traditional away shirt style, the kit features a blue badge and logos, while the collar and sleeves are adorned with the same blue hue, adding an unconventional touch to the overall look.

Forward Gabriel Martinelli said of the adidas-designed strip: “I love it! It’s a fresh look and it really brings to life the style of Arsenal. 

“Our supporters are incredible and it’s great that adidas and the club have created this design to celebrate them and our roots in North London. 

“I can’t wait to get back on the pitch in our new away shirt.”

As part of their new jersey campaign, Arsenal has provided a platform for several music artists who are passionate supporters of the Gunners. This initiative celebrates the vibrant culture of Arsenal’s local area.

In a promotional video, musicians including Mabel, Sherelle, and AntsLive are featured alongside the club’s men’s first-team players, showcasing the diverse talents and shared passion for the Arsenal community.


Rapper AntsLive said: “There are so many talented Gooners all over the globe and I love the way the club is making a real effort to showcase the talent. Arsenal have always led the pack in supporting culture. 

“We’ve seen them connect with supporters in North London and communities around the world in different ways and this time it’s through music and design. 

“As a lifelong Gooner, it’s a special honour to feature in the launch and have my music as the soundtrack. Big up the Arsenal every time.”
