As the 2024/25 Premier League season kicks off, it’s not just the players and teams that are generating excitement—it’s also the new kits they’ll be sporting on the pitch. Each year, clubs unveil their latest home shirts, blending tradition with modern design to capture the essence of the team and its supporters. This season is no different, with a host of eye-catching jerseys that range from classic to cutting-edge. With the Premier League schedule now set, fans can look forward to seeing these designs in action.
Whether you’re a fan of bold new designs or timeless classics, there’s something for everyone. In this article, we rank the top ten Premier League home shirts of the new season, evaluating them on design, creativity, and how well they represent the club’s identity. From sleek minimalist designs to vibrant throwbacks, these are the kits that have caught our eye and are set to dominate the fashion game on the field this season
Premier League Home Jersey Rankings
10. Liverpool
Liverpool’s new kit may not be the most adventurous, but it carries a nostalgic charm. The pinstriped shirt is a tribute to their 1983/84 kit, a year when Liverpool dominated English football by winning the First Division and the League Cup. The striped collar adds a subtle yet stylish touch, though fans will be hoping the football on display is more exciting than the kit itself.
9. Brentford
Brentford earns a spot on this list not for a groundbreaking design, but for their thoughtful decision to keep the same kit as last season. In a move aimed at reducing costs for fans and environmental impact, the club opted to maintain their 2023/24 Premier League shirt. This red-and-white striped kit is both classic and functional, and Brentford’s reasoning behind keeping it deserves commendation.
8. Aston Villa
Aston Villa’s new kit by Adidas might seem straightforward at first glance, but the details make it stand out. The two-tone sleeves and the unique pinstriped collar add a fresh twist to a classic design. Villa fans will appreciate the modern take on their traditional colors, making this a solid entry in this season’s Premier League Jersey rankings.
7. Newcastle
Newcastle United’s return to Adidas after 15 years has brought with it a kit that revives memories of the early 2000s. The broad stripes and dual-tone V-neck collar are reminiscent of their 2002-03 home kit, a fan favorite from a successful era in the Premier League. After several disappointing kits in recent years, this sharp design marks a return to form for the Magpies.
6. Tottenham
Tottenham’s all-white home kit remains clean and classy, with Nike continuing the minimalistic approach they’ve taken since 2017. While there’s nothing revolutionary about the design, it’s hard to go wrong with a plain white strip. However, it’s the away kit, featuring a blue striped pattern inspired by Spurs’ 1980s kits, that has garnered more excitement this season making me break the pattern in order to address this wonderful design.
5. Bournemouth
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of their promotion to the Premier League, Bournemouth’s home kit pays homage to the gold-flecked jersey worn during their triumphant 2014-15 Championship season. The addition of gold stripes and a special Umbro logo commemorating the manufacturer’s centenary gives this shirt a distinctive and appealing look, blending history with a modern aesthetic.
4. Manchester United
Manchester United’s new Premier League home kit marks a fresh direction, with a gradient effect that transitions from bright tomato red at the neck to a deeper shade at the hem. This design is a nod to the 1950s “Busby Babes,” whose synthetic jerseys shimmered under Old Trafford’s lights. The innovative third kit, featuring the devil logo, is another standout in their collection, symbolizing the club’s evolution under new ownership.
3. West Ham
West Ham United has gone retro with their latest kit, drawing inspiration from the club’s 1960s glory days. The simple design, complemented by chunky collars and cuffs, echoes the era of legends like Bobby Moore and Geoff Hurst. This kit not only looks sharp but also carries a sense of tradition and pride, with the sleek black away kit adding further style to their wardrobe.
2. Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace are the only club in the Premier League to hire a creative director. His name is Kenny Annan-Jonathan and he’s helped to create a really distinct home shirt which is sure to turn heads. Moving away from last season’s architectural print, the new kit features a bold red-and-blue stripe pattern made up of interlocking eagles’ wings. It’s a daring design that perfectly balances being over-the-top and fashionable, with potential to appeal beyond just football fans.
1. Arsenal
Arsenal and Adidas continue their streak of outstanding kits with three standout designs this season. The home shirt is a classic Arsenal red, perfectly capturing the club’s identity. The away kit pays tribute to the club’s African fanbase with green and red stripes symbolizing Pan-Africanism, while the third kit features a spacey, turquoise design that’s sure to be a hit among fans. Arsenal’s kits are not just about football—they’re cultural statements, making them the top pick this season.
Not only are the kits great, the accompanying promo video was sensational, with local fans, club legends and Will Poulter featuring. Sensational.
