Inspired by the attitude of ‘Scouse solidarity’, the bold, no-nonsense design reflects the mentality of its people, a mentality that makes Liverpool unique.

 

Its just a red top.

No, it's a red top that'll set you back just short of £100.

Wonder how Nike will describe RB Liepzig kits as they all look like a 3 year old has been let loose with a couple of paint cans. Also the club was formed by an energy drink company 12 years ago.

Interesting, or at least surprising, that Ox is used in the promo video. 

 

At least they've cut down on the stupid 'embellishments' this time.

I’m assuming that’ll be based on social media followers he and his bird have.

Yeah, Nike aren't really there yet for the kind of stuff "Scouse solidarity" embodies.

The deeper red patch on back and YNWA pattern on the sleeeve cuffs are uncecessary IMO.

 

A Liverpool home kit should also imo feature white on collar and cuffs.

 

3 kits in now and for me they still haven't got one right.

It’s a vast improvement on 2020-21 and 2021-22, but that wasn’t difficult. As you say, it needs a white collar and cuffs.

Someone did a concept kit on Twatter before Nike took over and it was based on Man City's kit last year. This new kit is virtually identical to it.

I agree. But that's always the problem once you hand over an iconic kit to designers. They feel obliged to 'design'. There's never been anything better than seeing an all-red strip, the right shade of red, rushing around the pitch. So instead we get bits of green, pink, orange and god knows what else, and on one occasion William Shatner's old Star Trek collar as well. But it's the way of the commercial world, alas.

Sadly aye

 

Sometimes they get it right and still end up putting too much on - this from NB is outstanding and a lesson in what an LFC shirt should look like, but they couldn't help themselves and added a totally needless and shite white patch on both sides....

Yes! The patch! I'd love to have seen the Mad Men-style meeting for that. And they get paid for this nonsense!

You see literally dozens of mock ups made by kids in their bedrooms on their computers that arw better than the shite these big companies designers knock out and the club sign off on.

This new one is at least an improvement on the absolute abortion that is the current kit.

We’ve had a handful of decent home kits since the late ‘80s, whereas clubs such as Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, regularly have boss kits.

Same here. Just comes across as lazy

[J-V]

They even wheeled Ox out for that

[John102]

I always find the discussion around our home kit fascinating. 

 

I think the scale from atrocious to classic kit is separated by a white trim.

Why can't nike manage something like this....

The design of football kits is important stuff, you bastard. I like to buy footy shirts and keep them unworn, in mint condition, neatly folded in drawers.

It's shite, so I reckon they could manage it.
