The Liverpool Shirt Then

When the team replaced Everton at Anfield, the Liverpool shirt was similar to the Everton strip of the same time. The shirt was blue and white, bisected vertically. The strip was completed with blue shorts and black socks. The Liverpool shirt was changed to all-red in 1894 to be different to the blue of Everton. White Shorts completed the kit. The socks have been swapped from red, to black, to white before coming full-circle back to red. In the mid 1960s, the now familiar all red strip was adopted for home games.

The Most Iconic Liverpool Kits

The kit was in the club's traditional red with white collars but sported a rather rare white pinstripe. Many keen fans are often mistaken in assuming the pinstripes were around for a decade but in reality it was the lingering taste of success that shadowed the club's future. The kit was sported by such legends as Dalglish, Hansen, Lawrenson, Phil Neal and Thompson. It was even revived this year in what can only be seen as an effort to revive the glory days in a seemingly glory-less season.
