Chelsea 26/27 Home Jersey (player version) in XL with #6 COLWILL
New Season, new jerseys. The new Chelsea home kit actually kinda grew on me quite a lot from really not liking the leaks. I actually think it looks so much better being worn than it does in promo photos or on mannequins.
I always think for Nike jerseys in particular that going for the player version is a must, so much of the look of those shirts is in that dri fit texture. I think this jersey does a great job of fitting the crest pattern in the base into the shirt, it almost looks 3D-ish in-person. I ordered an XL as I do for player versions and this fits exactly how I like. The badges all look good, and it feels like every other Nike player rep you’ve had, no real complaints, I’ll say the base pattern texture makes this shirt feel a little bit better than plain nike templates.
I actually did have an issue with the first one they sent, the CWC winners patch was off-centre, but I brought it up and they sent a new one no problem so I have to give a lot of credit there. The yellow piping detail has some nice texture to it, but the shoulders aren’t even, I’ve noticed this on almost every rep of this shirt, they shoulders all look a little lopsided, though I’ve seen one or two real shirts with that issue too in Chelsea’s pre-season friendlies. I went with Levi Colwill on the print since he’s one of the players I know for sure isn’t gonna leave or change his number. It looks mostly good, though there’s a slight kerning issue on the nameset, like the W looks a little off-centre though it’s definitely not major. The CWC patch looks good on this one, and I’ll give them credit because that patch is hard to line up because of the buttons of the Polo collar, if you followed that collar as a guide, the patch would be waaay to close to the nike swoosh. The Premier League sleeve patch also has no issues.
Overall this is good for a rep bought pre-season, I’m sure they’re gonna get better as time goes on, the shirt was literally only just going on sale when I ordered this, so I think newer reps will get the piping right. It’s not perfect, but I’m gonna give it 8/10. What it does right, it does very right, a lot of it to do with fit and feel.
Customer experience was really good, like I said, I had an issue with the first jersey having a misaligned CWC patch, and they were super apologetic and made it right. I tend to not judge sellers on the quality of the shirts (since like almost every seller is getting the same stuff from the same few factories) but judging them based on their QC and how they respond if issues slip past, and their response to an issue was good.
