The kit is a collaboration with Adidas and British African heritage brand Labrum London.
According to Foday Dumbuya, founder of Labrum London, The kit is a celebration connection to African supporters via inspiration from the continent’s design traditions.
Many Kenyans have welcomed the kit excitedly, impressed by the timely roll-out just when the country is experiencing an unprecedented wave of patriotism and political consciousness.
Below are some of the reactions from fans:
Arsenal have won 13 league titles (including one unbeaten title), a record 14 FA Cups, two League Cups, 17 FA Community Shields, and a Football League Centenary Trophy.
Arsenal finished the season 2nd behind Manchester City with 86 points. Despite Arsenal having won the Premier League back in the 2003–04 season, They still keep fighting, believing good days are yet to come. They have been very competitive lately, having dominated the 2nd position for two consecutive seasons.
Arsenal have been a mainstay in England’s top division for over a century and are one of only seven teams never to have been relegated from the Premier League.
Arsenal is not a team that always gives up, and each time they play, they kind of show that there’s potential to win it.
