Harking back to the pinstripe designs of the early 80s but with a contemporary twist, Nike reveal the Liverpool 24/25 home shirt, which will be the brand’s last of the current partnership with the club.
Almost always first out of the gate when it comes to next season’s kit reveals for some reason we’ve yet to discover, Liverpool are once again the frontrunners, unveiling their new home shirt for the 24/25 season, which looks like it will be the last from Nike following reports that Adidas are set to take the reigns from the 25/26 season. With a retro feel, the new home shirt features a pinstripe design at first glance, but when viewed closer actually reveals a chrome yellow pattern of the club’s YNWA motto etched into the fabric of the shirt.
The retro flavour of the shirt continues on with the unique collar, which boasts traditional yellow and red detailing. Its presentation is a nod to the iconic collar worn by the ’84 team led by Joe Fagan, who lifted the European Cup in Rome that year wearing this original kit, to complete a treble. Both the shirt and shorts have yellow and white side panelling.
Men’s captain Virgil van Dijk said: “I’m a big fan of our new kit for next season and love the fact we’re bringing the retro vibe back. We are a club built on history and the 1984 team was one of our most successful ever. I’m sure our fans will appreciate the nod to those club legends.”
LFC Women vice-captain Taylor Hinds said: “It’s such a different look for the new season, and we can’t wait to wear it. The retro inspiration always makes you feel a part of the club’s history is with you as you play.”
