Arsenal have launched their new away kit ahead of next season.
The gold and navy blue strip was officially unveiled in Singapore, as the Gunners prepare for the new campaign with a pre-season tour to the Far East.
An enthusiastic bunch of local supporters turned out in force to see their heroes in the new shirts, including new signing Petr Cech, Santi Cazorla and Mesut Ozil.
The shirt had been 'leaked' throughout the summer, and the images were, as it turned out, legitimate.
It has a diamond pattern around the front and back with navy blue trim to accompany the solid gold shirt.
The goalkeeper kit is a darker offering, with two horizontal gold strikes across the top half of the shirt.
Arsenal start their pre-season tour on the field tomorrow evening, when they take on a Singapore Select XI in the Barclays Asia Trophy.
Olivier Giroud was delighted to see such a strong turn out for the launch.
“The event was great tonight, I was really happy to meet some of our fans from Singapore and around Asia. It’s really inspiring to see how passionate and supportive our fans are here, the atmosphere tonight was electric and it was a brilliant experience.
"I really like our new away kit. The gold colour is very striking and has been associated with some great Arsenal teams in the past.
