Liverpool have released their new away kit for the 2024-25 season which gives the club a much darker, moodier and more pared-down look than usual.
In recent seasons, the Reds have taken inspiration from kits worn in past glories, the wrought iron of Anfield’s Shankly Gates or even the Liverpool nightclub scene.
This time they have gone for something incredibly basic. There are no graphics or patterns, no flashy designs or even much in the way of bright colours.
The jersey looks almost black, although look closely and you will see that it is in fact a (very) dark green base which the club and manufacturer Nike call “Night Forest.”
There are, however, a few flashes of brightness courtesy of the simple light “washed teal” accents around the collar and cuffs and a dash of white on the flanks.
It’s certainly stylish, but one might easily mistake it for a training-field shirt rather than one worn by a player during a real game. With their third alternate kit still to come, Liverpool may have reserved all of their artistic energy for a major splash.
