Could these be authentic?

Sounds as though the away and third are concepts based on the rumuored colours, but these three would represent possibly our best set of away kits in recent years. Certainly a better set of "change" kits than we've had recently anyway.

Also, despite all the al fellas reminding everyone of how much they hate Nike every second post, aren't the rumuored colours for the away and third their idea of our ideal away colours?

That's the most 'un-Liverpool-looking' home kit I've seen in my life.
Yes, I really hope that's not really it, looks like a training kit. Those aways are very nice though.

So those kits that were posted a couple of weeks ago are the kits?

The home shirt is a bit too much change all at once for me. Black? nah, pink? why? stay on palette and be creative. Blue shorts and brown socks anyone?

I like the yellow with the thick pin stripes. It grew on me. I would rather the home with the pink than the one on the hanger above. The lighter shade of red just doesn't contrast well enough and the neck looks thick and spongy. We haven't had a home kit that bad since the 1998 home kit. I hope most of all that's not the away. My first ever kit was the 1997 away in cream/ecru and I was hoping for a return to that. I rarely ever buy the tops but a return to that colour, rather than plain white and I would've bought it.

2014/2015 was the worst home kit we've had since then. 2015/2016 was bad as well, and the 2010/2011 is close with it.

Not sure why you're asking why.  I've already said why.

So you don't mind overt displays of our victorious past, so long as they're sanctioned by the authorities?  Just seems a bit odd to differentiate.

It's such a trivial bone to be arsed picking really.

I stated a personal opinion (of which I'm entitled to do so) that I'm glad the club haven't gone down the route of incorporating stars into our club crest. Loads of clubs have started doing it, and it feels a bit tacky to me. Of course, opinions will differ there.

The 'Six Times' patch has not been incorporated into our club crest, and the XXX-Times patches are dished out to multiple winners of their competition by UEFA and are worn in their competition too, so that is completely irrelevant when it comes to talk of adding stars to the official club crest.

Some are into adding stars, some aren't. Really, it's no big deal.

It's a bright crimson red, or vermillion.

The shirt being massively different to any other Liverpool kit: not sure if that's a stroke of genius or a bad thing. Probably the former, though, when you compare just how different it is to the current one, which I actually like. It's not like NB or Adidas when we'd a couple that looked so similar that you couldn't tell what year they were from.

Home kit's legit, away / third aren't. That's what Fumler reckons anyway and I don't think he's ever been wrong with his kit knowledge.

Tbf the home kit still isn't technically 'right' per Fumler's knowledge either. Close knock-offs but there's some marked differences.

Assuming it's similar I think the home kit will do pretty well.

Shanks changed our kit to all red in the 60's. Every other tradition is getting eroded, why do we clap the away goalie at the kop?, lets sing the songs like were on speed, lets whinge and whine about the owners and money, blah blah fucking blah, so lets at least leave the fucking home kit alone.

I like the design on the aways btw. I'd never pay the money though, overpriced tat from what people who bought last years kits said.

I would argue the traditions on the Kop are way more important and different than some commercial design decisions made to sell kits across the globe, where a lot of those people are probably pretty far removed from the match-day traditions and the clubs' ethos. As long as it's red and isn't offensive in some way I have no major qualms about whatever they do.

I would imagine the club have probably considered modernising the logo too, which is probably going to go down like a lead balloon with some of our fanbase one day.

I really like it, and the white one. I'm not keen on yellow kits to be honest (yeah yeah, come at me :P) mainly as I look shit in yellow. Good job we don't have many pasty Brits who'll be wearing it.

Obviously it’s a rather subjective and meaningless point to make but to me that hone one doesn’t really ‘look’ like a Liverpool kit.

If you took the logos off and showed it to fans of other clubs how many of them would think it was Liverpool’s? I think people would say it was Roma.

If the away and third kits are legit then I do like the yellow, the only thing I would change would have a V neck like the old Hitachi kit.

The main problem I have with the yellow one is that it makes me visualise Rickie Lambert.

Nothing wrong with Rickie Lambert. Achieved a dream by playing for his boyhood team and scored a few goals as well including one at Villa when he ran into the fans and we went apeshit. Great stuff. Just saying like.
