Liverpool Kit Leak Offers Retro Glimpse of 2026/27 Away Shirt

Classic Adidas Detail Gives Liverpool Fans Talking Point

Liverpool supporters rarely need much encouragement to debate a kit. Colour, collar, crest, sponsor placement, all of it matters because a Liverpool kit carries memory as much as fabric.

The club’s 2026/27 away kit has not yet been officially unveiled, yet it has already appeared in public view after being spotted for sale early. According to X user @CapeTown_Bru saw the shirt mistakenly available in South African shop Studio 88, giving fans the clearest look so far at what Liverpool will wear away from Anfield next season.

For a club entering a period of uncertainty, with a new manager, new coaches and new players, the kit at least offers something familiar. Adidas have leaned into heritage, and that decision should land well with a fanbase that tends to value subtle nods to the past.

Retro Crest Adds Real Character

The most eye-catching element is the crest. Rather than using the standard modern Liverpool badge, the shirt features a version inspired by the design used on club tickets in the 1970s.

That same crest appeared on the 2025/26 sea-green third kit, alongside the Adidas trefoil logo. Both return here, giving the away shirt a vintage feel without making it look like a replica.

It is a smart balance. Football shirts can easily become overloaded with nostalgia, but this design appears to use the past as a detail rather than a full costume. The trefoil logo does a lot of heavy lifting, especially for supporters who associate Adidas with some of Liverpool’s most iconic eras.

V-Neck Design Nods to 1986

The shirt also features a V-neck collar with a striped design, said to be reminiscent of Liverpool’s 1986 away shirt, worn during the club’s famous double-winning season.

That reference point matters. The 1986 side remains one of the great Liverpool teams, and linking a modern kit to that period gives the shirt an emotional pull beyond simple aesthetics.

The Adidas stripes run down the sleeves, although they are broken up by a white panel for the sleeve sponsor and Premier League logo. That may divide opinion, as sleeve panels can sometimes interrupt the flow of a design, but commercial reality is now part of modern football kit culture.
