Not something specifically new to the modern game, we have been treated to an enormous array of typographic brilliance throughout the life-span of the game.

With Chelsea tuning their retro dial for an updated 201516 typeface, we take a closer look at the letters and numbers that the London club will use for their English Cup and European matches this season.

A creative approach thats often underappreciated, Chelseas new design is a lively inlined font thats a complimentary addition to an already very smart set of kits.

As all English clubs are forced to carry the same font in the Premier League, this typeface will be used in all English Cup and Champions League matches for Chelsea throughout the upcoming season.

Reminiscent of 2003 and Chelseas Umbro era, its been brought up to scratch with subtlety and an all round strong finish.

Some minor adjustments were only needed in order to preserve the legibility.

It features four styles, three of them can be overlayed and the fourth has some subtle curves in the corners.

It features (so far) four versions, each one in three weights: regular, bold X-bold.

It comes in three versions: Monospaced (making use of Oslos basic structure), Sans Serif Slab.

Though the client and I liked the font, we ended with a thinner option.

Nonetheless, I did my usual and finished the design of the full set.

Both have their own set of numbers, special characters and punctuation.

Though the font is primary intended to be all caps, Oslo II is featured as lower case to Oslo.

As Brasilia (the city) itself, it holds an old-modern design.

Chelsea Font Plus Two Levels

It comes in six versions: Regular (with shadows), Condensed, Extended, plus two levels of the shortened version.

It has a modular structure and it comes (so far) 4 styles: Regular, Rounded, Italics Regular Shadows.

The brief was to bring something inspired by the old circuses alphabets.

It is purposely irregular, and regardless of the crisp outlines, it is meant resemble hand painted signage.

Chelsea Font Free For Personal

All fonts are free for personal and commercial use (and I intend to keep it like this).

Nonetheless, if you consider a donation, it is always welcome.

Is not mandatory, but it helps me getting caffeine so that I can keep on staying up at night to bring you more free stuff.
