KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum 3rd kit

I don't really like any of these kits if I'm brutally honest. Although the excuse will be the usual "Warrior have never done it before", but come on! They could have designed better than what they have done. They look cheap, tacky and not very imaginative. At all.

Home kit is acceptable I guess, the away looks like swimwear and the third kit looks like something out or a sari shop:



Not a very good start from Warrior. But money talks.

I love the home Kit, and I don't hate either of the new ones.

General question on football kits:

Who decides on what kit is picked each year? does the kit sponsor get involved, does the kit manufacturer work to a brief from the club, does the kit manufacturer present 4 or 5 options for us to choose from.....?

I doubt very much that the players get any say in the matter, but on the other hand why should some director be in charge of that decision. Is it a marketing decision based on what they think will sell the most?

I love those guys! They're quality.

I really like this shirt because it is so different from anything we have had before. For obvious reasons they have stayed away from blue and I like this more than the new 2nd kit.

I thought that the rules went along the lines of having to have a third kit registered because we are in Europe and could end up playing someone in red shorts and black shirts and both our current first and 2nd kits would not be allowed.

But I also thought that by having a 3rd kit that we had to play in it a certain number of times because otherwise we would be ripping fans off by selling a kit we never played in. So I would expect to see us wearing this at Southampton and Sunderland next season whereas at Stoke we would probably wear the 2nd kit.

Does anybody remember a World Cup match between possibly Columbia and Ecuador or Paraguay. I am sure one side wore Yellow shirts blue shorts and red socks whilst the other team wore blue shirts red shorts and yellow socks. Something like that anyway.

If anyone remembers Star Soccer back in the day it was hard to tell any team apart as it was all white shorts and different shades of grey for the shirts. They also had jumpers for goalposts.

the home kit is absolutely stunning, the away & 3rd in contrast are complet mingers, respectively.

For christ sake, stay away from those patterns & odd colours, keep it simple... less is more.

The away and 3rd kits are awful. I prefer the 3rd over the away though. No chance I'd be caught in the away jersey, don't fancy looking like a nun who doesn't know how to work her washing machine.

I don't really like any of the kits, especially the away and 3rd. The home is nothing we haven't seen before, even if its the best out the three. You can normally tell a good kit, when fans from other clubs say they like it....and I've heard that a few times now for the new home.

I think its a point to make, that the kits will be unique, because as it stands Warrior only make a kit for us. Most kits Nike and Adidas all use the same template, thats why so many kits look near enough identical. But lets be honest, the only reason why we have Warrior, is because of the money they were offering to put us level with other teams sponsorship payouts, Adidas weren't willing to pay that out, so LFC looked elsewhere. It's a wonder with yanks in charge that we didn't have Nike, we even had somebody working at the club from Nike at the time. But that could still happen in the future unfortunately.

I still miss Carlsberg and Adidas though.

I kinda liked the yellow and black Kit which we used in the 2005.

I also like last years away kit. This years away kit is actually unique if I just want to be LFC Biased. The home kit is excellent though. Love it
