The New Chelsea Third Kit Features a Sound Wave-Inspired Graphic

— August 19, 2014 — Lifestyle
Adidas design for the Chelsea third shirt for the 2014/15 season is marked out by its youthfulness and electrifying, cyber-inspired graphics. The kit may be the third choice for Chelsea, but when worn, it is sure to catch the eye.

The front of the shirt sports an eye-catching electric blue graphic that looks like a sound wave. This graphic symbolizes the volume of support that Chelsea fans will generate while supporting their team in away games.

The shirt incorporates the first use of dark navy since the 2009/10 season when Chelsea won both the Premier League and FA Cup trophies. Their fans will hope the return of navy blue will signal the return of trophies to Stamford Bridge.
