Usually when I see our new kit, I think, 'yeah, I can see us lifting the title in that' then we never do.

This year I don't get that vibe, so I'm taking that as a good omen :lmao

But in short... It reminds me of a Warrior kit. Shudder.

I really like the Anthem Jacket though maybe not £125 like.

The fake collar looks horrible. But the rest of the kit looks ok.

Not the best one we've had in recent years.

When do the new training tops get released?

Photos of the players wearing it - anyone care to explain Mo’s giant clown trousers? Aside from that, looks good

Inspired by Rome 84. Only thing I can think is they look like the shoes & a very exaggerated version of the trousers that Fagan has got on in that poolside pic of him with the cup.

I like it, full collar would have looked better but these companies look to put a twist on old ideas so not suprised. I think they would likely getting slated for just copying old kits if they kept it simple so they cant really win

Don't know why they do it in white on the homes, my favourite shirt as a kid was my Hitachi one with the gold liverbird. Recent ones are the 125 year kit and the league winning kit of 19/20, all boss shirts, all gold Liverbirds

Just totally short sighted from Adidas. One of the world's biggest clubs, huge loyal fanbase, fans who brought Adidas trainees to the UK in the 70s and made the wearing of Adidas almost mandatory, new owners who'd brought baseball success to the Red Sox and were determined to do the same with us.

The last 9 years, the sales they've missed out on, not just on the shirts, but all the other kit too. I won't buy anything Nike, I think it's overpriced shite, all my t shirts and hoodies are Adidas, I dont own club stuff but I would buy shirts and shorts with the liverbird on.

I haven't got any LFC shirts made by nike, but do have shirts from reebok through to NB, funnily enough i have nike NFL jerseys, mainly because the NFL team i follow hardly ever changes their main jerseys.

I did like most of the adidas kits from the adidas second stint, but really disliked the 10/12 home, but daft thing is the adidas shirts i bought still fit, were as everything since from warrior & NB feels smaller size. :-[

I loved NB kits but main issues were non existent production & distribution of more kits once the original stock ran out, LFC lost a lot of sales because of that, i remember one year [may have been April 2019] NB got new stock made & went in store but that was weeks before the next seasons kit went on sale

Looks awful. The collar nearly looked similar to the 2013/14 one which was really nice, but this kit looks like they didn't have enough fabric and stitched together a bunch of stuff they found lying around.

Having now seen the kit I like it, and as usual this place is silly with pre-reveal reactions, I believe firstly it was the YNWA badge behind our club badge, people kicked off about that for a while and it isn't even in the real kit, every season, moaning about fake kits online... it's actually alright?

I thought it was awful pre-reveal and still think it's awful today. A really poor effort for me.

The ridiculous shield behind the Liver Bird was definitely a thing. I read an article the other week saying how it was pulled at the last minute by Nike. No doubt in reaction to the almost blanket disdain fans had for it.

it'll be popular but i think you'll still be able to pick it up in mid-season and end of season sales.

I know they like referring to classic kits, but considering we did the 1984 stripes just 5 years ago it seems a little strange to stil refer to 1984 when we have a modern title winning example! Hope we can win it again in this one!

Collar is terrible. Think the kit will date horribly if we change to Adidas.

Turns out people involved in fashion know a trick or two. Get a really ridiculously looking guy to model any old tat and it looks gorgeous.

For the away kit they'll just get Dom and Ali to wear some bin bags and I'll be that Shut Up and Take My Money gif.

Are we sure Nike didn't sabotage this after hearing we were back off to Adidas? Probably one of the worst home shirts we've ever had IMO. Doesn't really look like a Liverpool top at all even though the red shade is okay. The pattern on it is weird and the collar is hilarious, definitely one of the worst I've seen on a football top  ;D at least the badge doesn't have that ridiculous shield/crest thing around it like it did on some of the pictures.

The goalie top looks alright. The white training jacket is nice but I wouldn't buy it for the Axa logo on it. When we go back to Adidas it'd be nice if they done some stuff without sponsors on but I doubt they would.

It's the straight cut of the material across the collar that I hate, not the collar itself. Don't know why, but it makes it look unfinished and cheap to me.

I really loved last season's announcement videos, and the third kit one from 22/23.

I don't think I like this as a garment I'd wear myself, the collar is odd, vertical stripes don't work for me personally and I hate the weird seams that Nike do across the front that means none of the shirts fit properly even if I go up a size (I really want one of this season's shirts, boo Nike, BOO.)  It does look good on the male players; for some reason oddly like school uniform on the women's team.
