Nike and Chelsea have come together to create an all new home jersey for the 2022-23 season, and it’s sure to be a hit with Chelsea fans. Designed in tribute to Chelsea’s legendary manager Ted Drake, the Chelsea home jersey is a stunning tribute to one of Chelsea’s most important figures.
The design of the Chelsea home jersey follows that of the shirt worn by Chelsea during Drake’s last season in charge, 1961-62. The Chelsea crest has been made largely similar to its original form from that time, featuring a ‘Roaring Blue Lion’ as a symbol of Chelsea’s determination and fearlessness. This lion crest appears on the collar as a turquoise pattern, effectively bringing together history and modernity in one piece of clothing.
In addition to being stylish and fashionable, Nike has also paid special attention to ensuring that the Chelsea home jersey is comfortable and breathable for players. It is made with high performance Nike Dri-FIT fabric which helps ensure maximum comfort for players on and off the pitch. The lightweight material allows air circulation while also wicking away moisture quickly, making sure players don’t feel too hot or sweaty during their matches.
The rest of the Chelsea home jersey also exudes class, with navy shorts accompanied by white socks featuring blue stripes at their top – further paying homage to Drake’s legacy at Stamford Bridge.
The new design captures the spirit of Chelsea Football Club perfectly – blending modernity with classic tradition – making it perfect for those who are looking for something stylish yet timeless when they rock up at Stamford Bridge next season. With its simple yet effective design, this latest edition of the Chelsea home jersey is sure to be popular among fans both young and old.
