With the 2022-23 season just around the corner, teams across the world have been launching their new gear
Football and fashion have intertwined, with the best teams in the world working alongside the biggest sports brands to produce eye-catching kits each season.
Manufacturers such as Nike, adidas, Puma and more vie for the attention of football fans by coming up with fresh looks every year, and the demand is such that there is always room for innovative designs.
Whether it is a futuristic, experimental style, or retro throwback effort, there is a vast array of options to choose from. GOAL takes a look at what the top teams will be wearing in the 2022-23 season.
Arsenal unveiled their new 2022-23 home kit in May, with the latest offering from suppliers Adidas featuring a bold “lightning bolt” design.
The Gunners have announced that £5 from every sale of 2022-23 home shirts bought directly through them between May 19 and August 5 will be going to The Arsenal Foundation to support local community initiatives – with the club having worked to “positively impact the lives of people in our local areas since 1985”.

Athletic Bilbao are known for their red and white stripes. The colours have been used since 1910 and still form the backbone of its home kit
For the away kit, however, New Balance and Athletic Bilbao have taken inspiration from the club’s “Los Leones” nickname. The name, which translates as “The Lions,” can be traced back to the club’s origins next to San Mames church, with the grizzly death of the titular saint inspiring the nickname and the name of the club’s current stadium.

Barcelona released their 2022-23 home kit on June 3, with a bold striped design being delivered by suppliers Nike.
The Catalan outfit are famed for their Blaugrana stripes, which have been both wide and narrow down the years, while only once – in 2015-16 – have they strayed from vertical lines to horizontal ones. The 2021-22 kit was slightly lighter in colour than the latest offering, which offers a nod towards the 1992 Olympic Games that were held in Barcelona.

After regaining the SPL title last season, Celtic have now unveiled their 2022-23 away kit. For this season’s design, Celtic and adidas have looked into the archives and revived a 30-year-old classic. Referencing 1992’s away shirt, the new kit sports a pinstripe pattern of black, green and white.
Juventus have shown a willingness to experiment with kits in recent seasons and that habit continues in 2022-23, with Adidas producing an unusual take on the vertical bianconeri stripes. The black stripes are made up of a series of triangles in what is an apparent nod to the Piedmont region in which Turin sits.

"Scouse solidarity" is the theme, according to the club.
