Liverpool’s new third kit has been unveiled with a nod to the women’s game.
As part of Nike’s ‘Together We Rise’ collection, Arne Slot’s side will sport their latest change strip with the company’s Swoosh logo in a vertical positioning.
The shirt’s wider design features a pattern in homage to the ‘rebellious’ nature of female punk artists who pioneered a new sound in the Reds’ native city.
It fuses the iconic club colours with a loud mixed pattern and features in parts the Liver bird feathers.
The white kit has enhanced comfort and fit with details of pure platinum, with iconic club colours of global red and chrome yellow flashes finishing the shirt. The jersey is matched with black shorts and white socks.
On the reverse of the jersey, the 97-emblem encased by the eternal flames sits proudly at the nape of the neck in memory of those children, women and men who were unlawfully killed as a result of the Hillsborough disaster.
The campaign video and creative imagery depicts ‘generations of power’, featuring protagonists from the men’s and women’s games, as well as former LFC Women’s players and a junior female grass-roots footballer.
Current squad players Taylor Hinds, Olivia Smith, Leanne Kiernan, Sophie Roman-Haug, Marie Höbinger and Mia Enderby all feature alongside men’s players Andy Robertson, Mohamed Salah, Alisson Becker, Ryan Gravenberch, Darwin Nunez and Domonik Szoboszlai.
Former players who helped shape the women’s game at LFC and an important part of the club’s history are Natasha Dowie, Becky Easton, Gayle Formston and Julie Griffiths.
Taylor Hinds said: “I love the kit; I think it’s different especially with the swoosh and what it represents.
“It’s also still got the Liverpool red in it, and I can’t wait to wear it.”
Andy Robertson added: “I really like it; I like the colour and the detail on the shirt especially with the Swoosh going up which is a bit different.
“It’s signifying the rise of the women’s game and we’re a big part of it to try and help that.”
For this season when the kit is worn in European competitions by the men’s team it will also feature the LFC Foundation patch on the reverse.
LFC Foundation are the club’s official charity who provide life changing opportunities for young people and families both home and away.
The LFC Foundation patch can also be purchased for £5 and printed on the reverse of the shirt with proceeds supporting LFC Foundation’s international programmes.
A black warm-up top, platinum anthem jacket and alternative Goalkeeper Kit in green spark, pine green and white will also feature the distinct vertical double Swoosh.
The kit along with warm up top, anthem jacket will be on general sale from September 3, the change kit will sit alongside this year’s already launched home and away kits to complete the 2024/25 line up.
