Our Academy graduate is one of several Blues stars who modelled the new kit for its launch, with the eye-catching design featuring a refreshed club crest. It is available to buy now.

Colwill has been at Chelsea all his life, and has turned out for the Blues at senior and Academy level in a wide range of shirts.

Here, in his own words, he casts his eyes over the kits he has worn in the past few years, during which he has become a staple in our defence…

2019/20

This kit was a memorable one for me because it is the kit that I played my first FA Youth Cup game in, if I remember correctly. I remember posting it and everyone loved the picture. It did me loads of favours!

2020/21

I remember this one well. That's when I made my debut for the Under-23s after coming back from a meniscus injury. I came back completely different, much bigger, like a man. So, the kit was really tight on me when I put it on! But I had a really good season, I enjoyed that one.

2021/22

I trained with the first team a few times at the end of this season [after a loan spell at Huddersfield Town]. I didn’t play, but I had one of these shirts with my name and number printed out at the end of the season while I was training with them.

2022/23

So, I spent pre-season with the first team in America. It was my first tour, which was a good experience. But I didn’t wear this one too much as I went out on loan [to Brighton and Hove Albion].

2023/24

This is a memorable one. It’s the shirt that I wore on my debut, against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge. Obviously, it was a surreal moment. You work all your life to have a half a chance to try and make your debut for Chelsea, and I was lucky enough. I thought that kit was banging, I really liked it. It was clean and one very close to my heart. It’s also the kit that I captained Chelsea in for the first time [away at Manchester United].

2024/25

This kit was everything to me. It's the season that I’d say I really put my foot down and stamped my authority in the team. I enjoyed playing every game in this kit and we obviously had a good season winning the Conference League and qualifying for the Champions League. So, good memories in this one.

2025/26

For me, this is the best Chelsea kit I’ve worn so far. It’s what we won the Club World Cup wearing and I’ve got a few of those shirts at home ready to put into frames. Of course, it wasn’t a kit I wore as much as I wanted but it’s one that I’ll always remember. That Club World Cup win will always be huge.
