I don\'t think the design, if real, will go down well with Arsenal fans for the distinct lact of white sleeves. I recall the first ever Nike kit they had in 94/95 had red underarms which weren\'t popular with fans, but at least the white sleeve parts on those were prominent. On this kit however, the white looks more like part of the shoulder trim, it just doesn\'t look like an Arsenal shirt.

I know some people may mention the redcurrant in response but that was a one-off.

I\'m sure this is the real thing, cuz all off the leaked pictures look exactly like this one

I\'m a Gooner and I LOVE this shirt. It\'s got enough white not to look like a Liverpool or Man Utd shirt and while I like tradition as much as the next guy there\'s only so many ways to do red with white sleeves. I think it\'s a tasteful reinterpretation of the classic Gooner stripe. Nice job Nike. The Highbury shirt was great as was the last home and the current 3rd. Keep up the good work!

it looks like a training top

I imagine if I was an Arsenal fan I\'d be pretty upset with the \"un-Arsenalness\" of this shirt.

it\'s shame that they made it without 100% white sleeves

i think it is a training shirt,
not the match day shirt.

fake because Nike wouldn\'t put a \'Nike Team\' label in the bottom corner, like American football jerseys have. If you don\'t know what I am talking about, look at the last picture, the bottom left corner of the shirt (if you were wearing it) or the bottom right corner (from another person\'s perspective). The shirt has a jock tag, looks too 1990s to me.

It\'s like another variation of this jock tag

First Chelsea with a rubbish kit now Arsenal. It looks like a year of ugly kits.

Looks just like the Nike 98 World Cup shirts for Nigeria.

I don\'t design the shirts, I\'m assistant to the director of football advertising. Can\'t say that I personally fancy them, but they start to grow on you--especially when the players wear them. The nike team is on there because it is a team shirt, and we want to promote it as such. Besides, it\'s so small and one-colored that you can barely notice on the pitch. Lastly, shirts are expected to be tucked-in, but as you and I both know the players usually un-tuck them: hence, the small size.

I hope it\'s not the real kit because, the first time I saw it, its doesn\'t feel like it\'s an Arsenal Kit it doesn\'t show Arsenal-ish, I really really hope its a fake one, It\'s a really ugly kit

one word....disgusting

selling on ebay at..

www.ebay.co.uk

type in arsenal 2008/2009

hey presto

be the first to have it

serious...this is great kit...trust me...nice material used...

God I hope so...

this is crap

That shirt looks sh*te, I\'ll be proper glad if Arse \'n\' All turn out in that next season, it\'s a step back in the evolution of their kit if you ask me, obviously whoever designed it goes to the same optician as Arsene himself. Roll on the day when Arsenal realise that they are smug c*nts, it\'s all very well playing attractive footy but have some fecking modesty. Yeah I\'m talking to you Persie Van Injured and Cesc \'Hard as Nails\' Fabregas. Gooners SUCK!!!!

OK Rob, clearly not an Arsenal supporter! What, is it a slow news day for your team. What a mug you are. Take your hate somewhere else, cos in all honesty, no one cares what you gotta say.

that top looks sweeeet! can\'t wait to wear it in style when we win the league next season!!!!

i think maybe it mite ne a new training top

very nice i like the shade of red

when will it be out?

its ugly

Ive seen on the Arsenal shirts and im happy to say this is the real home kit. Some are saying its revolting, but people weren\'t saying that at the days of Ian Wright and Anelka were wearing it. It the same design as the dreamcast sponsor kit and i believe it great. By the way the away kit is a goldy yellow of exactly the same design.

It is a shocking shirt but it\'ll look alot better when Cesc, Hleb & David Villa are wearing it.

ANOTHER CRAP STRIP BY NIKE. THE CURRENT HOME SHIRT IS EXCELLENT AS IT LOOKS LIKE AN ARSENAL, BUT I CAN\'T THINK OF MANY OTHER NIKE SHIRTS I\'VE LIKED, AND THAT CURRENT WHITE ONE IS ABSOLUTE CRUD!!!

its kool bring henry 14 back

The new home shirt is meant to be like the 1971 strip

The new Arsenal away jersey is nice.

the new arsenal sponsors will be adidas for the next season.....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adidas_sponsorships
see at the part where there are the European clubs......
it says (england) Arsenal(2008/2009)

Abrar anyone can write stuff on wikipedia making the information that Adidas are making the Arsenal shirt highly doubtful.

I HAVE SEEN the new kits in person and although this roughly resembles the new kit IT IS FAKE 100%,
I HAVE SEEN BOTH AWAY AND HOME KITS and the home one is almost identical to this one, the black outline stripes on the sleeves are thinner, the MATERIAL IS DIFFERENT FROM THE PIC and is the same material used now, it doesnt have victoria concordia crescit written on a basic sewn white line THE LOGO LOOKS IRON ON!!, this is a fake replica of the NEW ONE. The new one is just like it, the AWAY KIT IS the same design in Gold and dark blue based on the SEGA away ones with a red outline.. and the white away kit is next seasons 3rd kit.

Nike in my eye uses the retro styles and reworks them into something modern, adidas uses modern assymetrical, usual \'three stripe\' designs and is just plain boring from a design standpoint, look at chelsea, Liverpool, ACMilan Galatasary are all the same desingns in different colour schemes. Nike deserves more Kudos than people saying Nikes boring-PAH
were lucky to have the swoosh on \'our\' side, they are the best for the best teams!.

this is a fantastic new arsenal design

This Kit is amazing, it reminds me of the 1998/1999 season , i love retro style kits, the blue line surrounding the white strip really makes the kit to be honest, this could be the best ever arsenal kit, if the shorts and socks are good.

That kit was bein modeled by fabregas in the sun 5/6/08

it must be real cuz it was in the sun newspaper today

it\'S quite ugly ..dnt knw its fake or not. but it lookes lik its the real one..
hope the United shirt won\'t get style like this

CLASSIC ARSENAL KIT! Just like the one a few years back.

THIS IS NOT THE REAL ARSENAL SHIRT COS IV SEEN THE REAL ON BUT STILL ITS NOT THAT BAD BUT TO LOSE THE WHITE SLEVS IS WANK,
