NEW YEAR, NEW KITS - PART 2

Sebastian Zucchet

In part one of the 2022-23 kit rankings we saw some beauties including Barcelona, and Lazio, but now it's time for the creme dela creme.

5. Athletic Bilbao

The NB Athletic Bilbao 2022-23 away shirt introduces an outstanding design. Predominantly 'Magnet Grey', it features a striking graphic lion print in red and black. Not much else to be said other than that it is a beauty.

4. Venezia

Mainly white, the FC Venezia 22-23 away jersey combines this clean base with alternating green and orange slim horizontal stripes on the front, back and sleeves. Such a sleek and refreshing design, it looks even better in the long sleeve version. Venezia will look to win promotion in style.

3. Arsenal

The Arsenal 22-23 away jersey is black, combined with gold-metallic for all logos and grey for the 3 Stripes on the shoulders. Rounding off the stealthy look, the Arsenal 2022-23 features a faint abstract geometric print across the front and sleeves. This graphic consists of the letters AFC, with their font style being directly inspired by the Arsenal lettering fans pass on their way to Emirates Stadium.

2. Celtic

The Celtic 2022-2023 away football shirt is predominantly black with green stripes that each have a thin white border. The 3 Stripes, placed on the shoulders of the Celtic 22-23 away football shirt, are also green, while the Adidas and Dafabet logos are white with a black outline. It gives off a retro vibe as it resembles the shirt worn in the 1992-93 season, thirty years ago.

1. Norwich City

This beauty is inspired by the 1980s era of football kits, and puts us into a time machine. The shirt is so simple, yet so beautiful in terms of nostalgia and is a modern classic. The sleeve and collar pattern is great, but the thin green pin stripes down the shirt give it that 80s feel.
