That old club logo combined with the Nike swoosh on quite impressive pecs takes some getting used to, but I love the idea of a commemorative kit!

Now that's a proper kit. Can't see it not having adverts on it but I wish they would sell it as the picture shows.

I might even buy it, might

Weird to have a shirt just for the FA cup. What if we get knocked out first round?

But that kit deserves any excuse 

The Nike Chelsea FC 2019-20 fourth jersey is set to be used both in domestic and international cup competitions, similar to what Puma and Borussia Dortmund have been doing for several seasons. It will be used there instead of the regular Chelsea 2019-2020 home kit for the second half of the season.

That's how real thing looks like.

Great idea, and a great shirt. Really like the way they have made the sponsors' logo so unobtrusive to keep the look close to the original.

Still prefer the original one, though!

And no white collar, thank goodness. It's a great shirt! They even made the socks yellow, that's dedication.

Can we scrap the current home shirt and just go with that?

If only this was made our kit at the start of the season... love it!

A minimalist thing of great beauty, much much better than that disaster b*stard of a home shirt this season.

Be interesting to see how popular the long sleeve version is. My first short sleeve shirt was the Le Coq Sportif 1981/82 home and away. Before then, most replica shirts were long sleeve. Can’t remember wearing  a long sleeve shirt since 1981

Oh that's good, that's damn good. 

Hold on, are the sleeves darker than the body, or is that a trick of the light? If not the latter it would be so Nike.

Would have been funny if they'd been a bit braver and "retro" with the cut of the shorts ... ?

Love that kit. would love us to go with that next season. 

Hopefully we get a decent run in the cup with it, as it would be a shsne to only roll it out once.

Think il be ordering that shirt on 2nd jan.

I think you're right about the different colours if this picture is anything to go by.

Why does Nike keep doing that, why not resist for one f**king time !

I’m surprised they, with our other sponsors, allowed us to blend all the logos in to the shirt so they’re barely visible. I think we can let it slide this time.

Grmph, it's still mucking around

Need it to sell well so that they see it as profitable to do designs like this - if it outsells this seasons home shirt then who knows, maybe we’ll get something similar next season as Nike smell the money. One can hope!

Fabulous kit. I love it.

The only reason I can't see this being our home kit is because the sponsors need to be showing clearly, don't they?

You do see more & more retro kits on match days now so there is a demand. The first Nike kit was lovely but with the demand for new kits every season they can’t get away with plain kits because they’d be criticised for them being too similar
