The first image of an Arsenal player wearing the team’s upcoming new 2026/27 third kit has leaked online, with Piero Hincapie pictured in the shirt.
As shown above, a picture of Piero Hincapie wearing Arsenal’s 2026/27 third kit shirt has leaked on social media.
The design of the third kit has been known for months, with the shirt using a pale yellow primary colour, navy blue accents, and lightning bolt graphics that continue down onto the shorts.
The new shirt uses Arsenal’s cannon logo, rather than the club crest, and the sponsor logos will all be in the same shade of navy blue as the accents on the shirt, which is also the primary colour of the shorts and socks.
There are also dark red accents on the sleeves, the collar, the ends of the shorts, and the tops of the socks, as shown in Footy Headlines’ mock-up graphic above.
Since those initial details were revealed, official photos of the third kit have leaked (shown below), and we now have our first photo of a player wearing the kit.
With the home and away kits for 2026/27 already having been released, the third kit is the only one waiting on an official announcement.
The expectation from Footy Headlines is that the third kit will be released in August, though that’s not surprising, considering the team might have to start wearing it in official matches at that point.
The Gunners will surely wear the red and white home kit in the Community Shield and the Premier League opener at home to Coventry City.
But they might wear this yellow kit for the away trip to Aston Villa on August 31st, having avoided wearing red or blue to wear their third kit at Villa Park last year.
