Well, the worst-kept secret from the Tottenham Hotspur marketing department (after the 24/25 home and away kits of course) has now been officially confirmed. Spurs this morning announced via their website and social media the release of the long-awaited third kit – well, long-awaited by some, I’m sure:
Dare To Play
Our new 2024/25 Nike Third Kit has landed!

There’s the usual marketing spiel about “embracing club heritage”, with the green and some elements of the badge being a reference to trees from which the “Seven Sisters” draws its name.
But is it cool?
I dunno guys, you’re asking the wrong millennial. The strip, which was leaked months back, is a teal color that brings to mind THAT Ajax kit, and honestly? I personally kind of like it. The color scheme is great, I actually like the detailing around the badge, and the upwards Nike tick actually sort of does it for me.
Where things get a bit weird though is the patterning on the shirt, which is meant to be reflective of Spurs’ N17 roots, which I guess means… fungus? Come on. You know the first thing that comes to mind is a petri dish.
Still. I don’t hate it. Sound off in the comments!
