This beautiful coffee-table book takes readers through the history of the famous west London's club kit and in doing so also tells the story of the club, the famous matches, and of course the iconic players who wore the shirt with pride and distinction.

Compiled using stunning photographs of match-worn shirts actually donned by many of the football club's greatest players, the book presents a stunning timeline of Chelsea's history and of their emblematic shirt. This deluxe edition brings together the rarest and most iconic blues shirts ever seen and includes:

  • A player shirt from every major cup final Chelsea have played in
  • Shirts worn by many of Chelsea's greatest players

Blue Is the Colour is a breathtaking and historic record of the greatest collection of blues match-worn shirts that have ever been seen together, and through these classic and iconic shirts, the history of one of the world's most famous football clubs comes to life.
