Arsenal and Puma seem to be a match made in heaven.
The Gunners have officially launched a new cup jersey for the 2015/16 season to complete the set with new kit manufacturers Puma.
The kit will be worn by the Arsenal first team in away games in cup competitions, including the UEFA Champions League tournament which is set to kick off in September.
It follows the same basic colour scheme as last season. However, this year’s navy and light blue effort also features gold and white panels on the torso and a gold crest.

Another plus for the Arsenal faithful is that it is essentially a nicer version of the alternative kit Newcastle United are going with this campaign. Surprise, surprise, the Toon’s shirts are also made by Puma.
