FAQs
Is this an authentic match-worn jersey?
No, this is a Nike Stadium collection replica jersey. It features replica design details inspired by the pros and includes sweat-wicking technology for comfort, but it is not the exact kit worn by players in professional matches.
What is Nike Dri-FIT technology?
Nike Dri-FIT is an innovative polyester fabric designed to help you stay dry and comfortable. It moves sweat from your skin to the fabric's surface, where it quickly evaporates, keeping you cool during activity.
What material is the shirt made from?
The shirt is made from 100% polyester, specifically 100% recycled polyester, aligning with sustainable practices.
How should I wash this shirt to maintain its quality?
Machine wash cold with similar colours, preferably inside out. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry to preserve the fabric and printed/woven details.
Does this shirt run true to size?
The shirt is designed with a 'Regular' apparel fit type. For specific sizing guidance, please refer to Nike's official size chart if available, or consider your usual Nike apparel size.
Can I wear this shirt for intense football training?
Absolutely. The Nike Dri-FIT technology and flexible construction make it ideal for training, as it helps keep you dry, comfortable, and allows for full range of motion on the pitch.
What is the significance of the design?
The design pays tribute to Chelsea's 1974/75 away kit and the 'Magnificent Magyars' – a renowned Hungarian national team. It incorporates sophisticated striped elements in Phantom, Speed Red, and Galactic Jade, reflecting this heritage.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels less effective at wicking sweat over time
Ensure you are washing the shirt according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners as they can block the fabric's moisture-wicking properties. Check for residue buildup from detergents.
Club crest or Nike Swoosh appears faded or peeling
Always wash the shirt inside out to protect embroidered or heat-pressed details. Avoid harsh detergents and high heat drying, which can damage these elements.
Fabric feels rough or uncomfortable after washing
This could be due to hard water or excessive detergent use. Try using less detergent, or adding a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle to soften the fabric and remove residue (avoiding fabric softener).
Shirt has an unpleasant odor even after washing
For persistent odors, try soaking the shirt in a solution of white vinegar and water (1 part vinegar to 4 parts water) for 30 minutes before washing. Ensure the shirt is completely dry before storing.

Care Instructions

- Washing: Machine wash with similar colours. It is recommended to wash inside out to protect the crest and stripes.
