OnlineGooner has received more details on the new white away kit and the reasoning behind it…

Shirt - white top with redcurrant edging.

Shorts – redcurrant

Socks - redcurrant & white hoops

The reason the club came out with for a white top in collaboration with Nike is related to the great success of the 2005/06 redcurrant top and the notion of redcurrant’s place in the history of Arsenal.

Another great historic moment for Arsenal was when Sir Herbert Chapman introduced white to the all red Arsenal top. So the conclusion: let’s have white.

It appears that the club have taken on board the concept that our home kit should always be red & white and that one away kit should always be yellow & blue. However, this then leaves them to play about with the other away kit as they see fit!
