Liverpool FC’s New adidas Kit Brings ’90s Nostalgia Back to the Pitch

Football shirts aren’t just sportswear anymore—they’re culture, history, and in Liverpool’s case, a reminder that some throwbacks never go out of style. For the 2025–2026 season, Liverpool FC and adidas have teamed up to drop a third kit that’s already making waves, blending retro cues with modern edge. And yes, we’re talking sea green realness that feels equal parts vintage terrace energy and futuristic streetwear staple.

So, why is everyone so hyped? For starters, the kit marks the return of the adidas Originals Trefoil logo to an LFC jersey for the first time in nearly 35 years. That alone is enough to get the diehards misty-eyed. Add in the reimagined crest from the 1987–1992 era—complete with the eternal flames framing the ’97 emblem on the back—and suddenly you’ve got a shirt that’s not just about football, but about memory, legacy, and resilience.

The drop isn’t playing safe, either. Beyond the classic short- and long-sleeve versions, adidas has introduced a cropped jersey for the first time (cue fashion girlies styling it with cargos and Gazelles for an off-duty look). White shorts pick up the sea green accents for that clean matchday finish, while a slick all-black goalkeeper kit takes moody minimalism to new heights. For fans who live for styling beyond Anfield, there are also matching accessories—including an LFC edition of the adidas Gazelle sneaker.

But what’s a kit launch without a little hometown flair? The campaign video is a love letter to Liverpool itself, featuring Reds’ fan and actor James Nelson-Joyce, club legend Steve McManaman, and first-team stars like Fuka Nagano and Andy Robertson. Local talent is front and centre too, with DJ Lauren Lo Sung, Yombo, and The Scouse Ghetto Gourmet making cameos that tie the kit back to the city’s cultural heartbeat.

And in case you’re wondering when it’ll officially hit the pitch? Circle November 22 on your calendar—the women’s team will debut the kit in their Women’s League Cup clash against Sheffield United. Until then, you can snag yours via the LFC online store and start planning those fits.
