Arsenal’s new away shirt for the 2009-2010 season will be white with redcurrant pinstripes and designed and manufactured by Nike.

The new shirt is scheduled to be released in June, 2009.

Some Arsenal fans may be surprised to discover that white has been a common color for the Gunners to wear for their away shirts, despite it being the same color as their north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur. Between 1895 and 1968, it was the prevalent color of their away shirts.

If Arsenal’s away shirt for the 09-10 season will be white, does that mean that Arsenal’s third shirt will be hunter green?
