Liverpool FC launches new Nike away kit for 2020-21 season
Liverpool FC has today revealed the new Nike away kit for the 2020-21 season.
Sold out: The limited pre-order for the 2020-21 away kit has now ended. The kit will be available in stores and online from Monday August 17.
The away jersey for the upcoming campaign features a vibrant teal and black colourway, drawing on cultural references from across the city.
The Liver bird and LFC crest, iconic symbols, heavily influence the colour – a theme that has been carried through from the home shirt to tie the two kits together.
Its swirling pattern on the front of the jersey takes inspiration from the Shankly Gates at Anfield, and a textured print design nods to Liverpool’s musical roots and the flyposters often found around the city to advertise local music events.
“I’m a massive fan of the new away kit,” said Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson. “I really love the design and how it has been influenced by the city and specific aspects of the club. I can’t wait to get back out there and play in it next season.”
Scott Munson, VP football apparel at Nike, said: “We have very distinct design filters that are fully demonstrated in the collection we’ve created for Liverpool FC. First and foremost, we set out to create a collection that celebrates the rich culture of the city of Liverpool and the club.
“The away kit allowed us to be bolder and more expressive in how we brought some of these cultural references to life and we’ve landed on a look and aesthetic that really reflects that.”
The new kit will go on general sale for purchase in store and online from Monday August 17.
It is also available now for Early Access from nike.com, and all other Nike retailers from Monday August 17.
