A contemporary take on the 1995-96 "lightning strike" kit, featuring a dark blue base with bright blue flashes. The cannon crest adds a classic touch, though some note it leans on past designs, it’s still a fan favorite for its bold look.
3. Nottingham Forest Home Kit (Adidas)
Celebrating the club’s 160th anniversary, this red kit with a buttoned collar and subtle white pinstripes offers a elegant, retro vibe. The design’s simplicity and historical nod have been well-received.

Featuring a darker blue wave pattern symbolizing the River Mersey, this kit marks the move to Everton Stadium. The subtle white collar adds a fresh touch, appealing to fans of the new era.
6. Chelsea Away Kit (Nike)
A white base with subtle red and green pinstripes, inspired by a 1970s Hungarian-influenced kit, offers an artistic feel. The Saatchi Gallery photoshoot adds to its high-fashion appeal.
7. Sunderland Away Kit (Hummel)
A throwback to the 1989-91 away kit, this design brings a vibrant retro style for their Premier League return. The bold colors and historical reference resonate with fans.
8. Manchester United Home Kit (Adidas)
A solid red base with black-and-white trim and Old Trafford-inspired sleeve graphics offers a traditional yet refreshed look. It’s functional but lacks the wow factor of others.

A departure from all-white with navy sleeves and a grey pattern, this kit aims for uniqueness but has divided fans. The design’s attempt at innovation keeps it in the lower tier.
