Chelsea and Nike continue a long-term kit partnership in the 2024/25 Premier League season, so here is everything we know about the release dates for the Blues’ shirts.
The American athletic brand and Stamford Bridge squad joined forces back in 2017. Chelsea split from Adidas to sign with Nike after it tabled the west London outfit a lucrative contract to sign. Nike has since made every Chelsea kit for their men’s, women’s and academy sides.
Chelsea had never worn Nike kits before signing with the brand but they will stay connected until 2032. Nike and Chelsea agreed a 15-year contract in 2017. So, with that in mind, here is everything we know about the release dates for Chelsea’s 24/25 home, away and third kits…
When does the new Chelsea 24/25 Nike home kit come out?
Chelsea and Nike are still to confirm the release date for the Blues’ new 24/25 season home kit. But the west London natives unveiled their strip for the 23/24 season on July 10 in 2023. So, Blues supporters may not have too long to wait for Nike’s latest offering to hit the shops.
Nike and Chelsea have often waited until July to unveil the Stamford Bridge side’s home kits in recent years. They also moved to keep their cards close to their chest in 2022 and held it back until July 7, 2022. But Chelsea unveiled their home kit for the 21/22 season on May 12.
