Liverpool unveils new away kit inspired by 1980s design
Summary

Liverpool has launched their away kit for the 2026/27 season, featuring a design inspired by the team's 1980s jerseys. The kit is predominantly white with red and grey detailing, incorporating the classic Adidas trefoil logo and heritage Liver bird crest. The new shirt will be debuted by the team in a friendly match against Wrexham in New York on July 30. Fans have reacted positively, although some have raised concerns about pairing the white kit with red shorts, a rare combination for the club. Liverpool supporters hope the new kit will bring better luck than last season's away shirt, which was associated with disappointing performances.
