Honest Arsenal FC Tracksuit Review? See Pros and Cons Now!

My Honest Experience Buying the Arsenal Tracksuit

Alright so I’ve been wanting new gym clothes and saw Arsenal dropped this tracksuit online last month. Went straight to the official store page to check sizing – medium usually fits me. Clicked order at like 11PM thinking I’d get it in a week tops.

Fast forward two bloody weeks later, the package finally shows up all crumpled in my mailbox. Ripped that box open feeling proper excited only to find the jacket looking way darker than the photos online. Not that shiny red they advertised but more like old ketchup color.

Wearing it around the neighborhood

First test was walking my dog wearing the full set. Jacket felt decently warm but the zipper got stuck halfway twice. Had to yank it like mad! Pants were super comfy though – the stretchy material didn’t bunch up when squatting to pick up dog poop. Bonus points there.

During actual workouts

Took it to my Thursday football practice. Did some drills and 5-a-side. Sweat buckets but the fabric actually breathed okay. Here’s the kicker though – after sliding for a tackle, the elbow part got this gnarly pull thread. One damn practice session!

What I Actually Liked

  • Pants are proper comfy for lounging or light exercise
  • Inner lining feels soft against skin
  • Arsenal badge stitching looks quality
  • Good thumbholes in sleeves

What Proper Annoyed Me

  • Zipper’s janky as hell
  • Fabric pills up easily around friction spots
  • Red color looks nothing like website photos
  • Ripped way too fast considering the price

Kept wearing it grocery shopping for two weeks to test durability. Jacket’s now got more pilling than my nan’s old sweater. Washed it cold three times and colors didn’t bleed though. Ultimately returned both pieces last Saturday. Clerk gave me side-eye when I showed the ripped elbow. Paid £100+ for something less durable than Primark stuff!

If you’re buying purely for looks on match days? Maybe worth when on sale. But for actual sports? Save your quid. Shame really – wanted to rep my club but feels like they cheaped out on materials. Might try the training jersey instead.
