The club was reformed in 2014, playing in the amateur leagues of Essex until once again dissolving in 2016. The most recent version of the club was founded in 2018 and currently plays in the amateur leagues of Essex, with the goal of providing Chingford with a professional football team inspired by the district's rich footballing culture.

Badge

The three iterations of Chingford Town FC have all prominently featured the stag, a commonly featured animal in local schools and organisations.

Kit manufacturer and Sponsorship

Chingford Town commissioned Legea to manufacture the Chingford Town kit. Legea also manufacture the kits for the North Korean national football team, among others. Due to financial limitations as an amateur football club, Chingford Town did not commission an away kit to be produced as of yet. The green and white colour scheme is an homage to the Chingford C of E primary and infant schools that several of the players attended as children.

In 2019, Chingford Town commissioned a new home kit with Adidas, ending the club's partnership with Legea.
