This is the new Chelsea 3rd Kit, or depending who you listen to, the teams Champions League kit. Designed with a bright Macaw Green and Navy theme, this is definately one of the more original strips of the year!

A thick navy band runs down the centre of the shirt, fading out to fit in the teams sponsor nicely, much better than some of the blocks some of this years sponsors have slapped on strips. Made from Climacool, and designed to fit perfectly for sport, the Chelsea 3rd Shirt should be seen as an alternate kit in the Premiership, but it seems the main point is colour clashes in the Champions League.

The shorts are navy, and the socks are green, with both featuring the usual Chelsea and Adidas logos. We give it the thumbs up purely for originality, but we’re never convinced 3rd kits are needed, lets hope it gets a good few run-outs this year!
