adidas have today unveiled the new Chelsea Home Shirt for the 2012-13 Premier League Season.

Chelsea’s home shirt for the 2012 – 2013 campaign – trimmed in gold.

Gold is this years theme as the London club see the gold as ‘reflective of the year of sport and celebration in the capital in 2012′  (Olympics).

The kit goes gold on the adidas, Samsung and club crests, continuing on the three stripes across the shoulders and the ‘CFC’ motif seen on the rear of the neck.

Subtle dark blue stripes also feature through the front of the shirt.

With the look completed with gold piping around the arms and neck.

This design detail is repeated through the shorts and socks both of which feature golden three-stripes on Chelsea’s famous blue.

The 2012-13 home shirt continues with the adidas Techfi technology in the playing shirt.

TechFit – The players’ kit will incorporate adidas’ TechFit technology to help improve speed, increased endurance capabilities and enhanced awareness.

This works by stabilising and focusing the muscles’ energy to generate explosive acceleration and deliver maximum power output.

Climacool -The shirts also feature adidas’ ClimaCool technology, a mixture of heat and moisture controlling materials, ventilation channels and 3D fabrics which improve air flow to the skin in the key heat zones.

The new Chelsea Home Shirt is available for pre-order right now, and will hit retail on May the 10th.
