New liverpool 08/09 Home Adidas kit unveiled
Finally, after tons of leaked pictures , a lot of speculation and boycotting fans, Adidas - the official sponsor and sportswear supplier for Liverpool Football Club today revealed the clubs new home strip for the 08/09 season.
The new adidas kit is in classic Liverpool red. An embroidered Liver Bird is positioned on the back of the shirt and the inner neck of the shirt has a red chequered area inspired by the flags of The Kop. The shirt also carries a "This is Anfield" inscription, inspired by the famous Anfield sign.
The new shirt collar is ribbed with a v-neck which has always been well received on shirts from the past.
As always for adidas, technology is at the forefront of the kit design. The shirt incorporates the world-renowned ClimaCool™ and ForMotion™ technologies which allow heat and sweat to escape and giving the athlete the freedom and movement to perform.
Club captain Steven Gerrard commented: "I'm really pleased with the adjustments they've made. The neck is a lot better and there's some lovely bits of detail."
Midfield partner Xabi Alonso is adding: "I am really pleased. Wherever you go in the world you see people wearing Liverpool shirts, whether it's Asia, Africa, Europe or Australia. This is one of the reasons why it is an honour for me to wear the Liverpool jersey."

good thing tough to make the stripes on the sleeves shorter!
the goalie kit however is very nice!
Look at the shorts too! Really cool. Nice simple socks and it\'s always good to see the L.F.C. abbreviation get a look-in.
I just wish I could get the shirt for Wednesday.
YNWA
i think its a nice shirt tbh just hope we don;t have that grey away that has been leaked because ive never liked it!
but liverpool is building a new stadium. this is bullshit...
I think I might buy both. Do my bit for the new stadium. Those American chaps have the right idea.

it\'s clear that is always a red shiet with 3 white stripes..
as usual..this is Liverpool!
In my opinion is a 2/5 shirt,as I voted.
I don\'t like the collar and the half sleeve stripes.
The best detail is the chessed \'This is Anfield\' badge..but it\'s inside the collar..
very nice
i think the team looked wonderful playing in these shirts though!
jeje thank you
I\'VE ORDERED MY GOLIE KIT GET IT NOW

the THIS IS ANFIELD part is very unique for liverpool
its a bit plain but i like it, the goalkeeper kit is very nice and slick (unlike chelsea\'s)
they better win the league this season
Bought the short & long sleeve & they are both excellent. Light weight & very cool. The collar is fab too.
When you buy this people you\'ll know what i mean.
Deffo a strip to be winning things in,can\'t wait for the new season come on.
