New Arsenal kit: Yellow adidas away shirt for 2021-22 season unveiled which pays tribute to club history

Arsenal have officially unveiled their new away kit for the 2021-22 season, a yellow design inspired by Gunners shirts past.

Launched on the 50th anniversary of Arsenal's FA Cup win in 1971, the colour - officially detailed as Pearl Citrine by adidas - is similiar to that worn on Wembley half a century below.

The yellow also follows a similar theme of Gunners' away kits, with a brighter yellow on show as recently as the 2019-20 season.

The design is completed with the traditional three adidas stripes on the shoulders and a black-and-red trim around the collar and sleeves.

Perhaps the most striking design aspect is the club crest, or lack thereof. Instead of the traditional badge, the famous cannon adorns the left chest - another hallmark of shirts of the past.

The new items are available to buy exclusively at adidas.com/football, adidas stores, and official club stores. Wider release with select retailers will be available from 21st May 2021.

For the chance to win a signed away shirt by Gabriel Magalhaes, download the adidas app, and sign up to become a member of adidas’ Creators Club.
