Kit information

The club was in the second year of a deal with American manufacturer Nike, who would supply their kit for the next six years.

Home: The new home kit remained broadly the same as the previous season. The main change related to the trim of the shirt, switching from white and navy stripes to thick navy blue bands on the neck and arms. In addition to this, sky blue shorts were used instead of the traditional white shorts.
Away: The away kit featured a fading pattern, running from navy blue to mid-blue, which were combined with yellow applications. The shorts and socks were navy blue as well.
Third: The third kit was in two shades of purple with a darker shade used on the collar and back of the strip, in line with Nike's new template used by its top teams. The two shades were separated by luminous yellow flashes.
Keeper: Three goalkeeper strips were revealed for the 2014–15 campaign, with the first and second-choice strips being essentially negatives of each other. The primary kit was mainly yellow with a light green band on each arm surrounded by a gradient colour pattern, the secondary kit was mainly green with a yellow band on each arm which was surrounded by a similar fading pattern, and the third kit was mainly black with red bands and the same gradient pattern.

(C) Champion.
Notes:

Since winners of the 2014–15 FA Cup, Arsenal, and winners of the 2014–15 Football League Cup, Chelsea, qualified for the Champions League based on league position, the spot awarded to the FA Cup winners (Europa League group stage) was passed to the sixth-placed team, Liverpool, and the spot awarded to the League Cup winners (Europa League third qualifying round) was passed to the seventh-placed team, Southampton, since those teams were the first teams in the table not already qualified for any European competition.
