Stop rubbing your eyes for a moment: the Millennium Dome hasn't had a makeover, and nor does the Thames have a new, elaborate crossing. Unlike Crystal Palace, who established their parochialism by banging on about south London 'being theirs', Arsenal chose to launch their new change strip in Sydney. Because they're global, you see. And they happened to be on tour there.

It is just a third kit, mind. It's basically a set of charcoal grey pyjamas, the same shade as school trousers, with cherry blossom detailing. A rather nice contrast, but nothing overly special. Would have been vastly improved with matching pink shorts.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
