"Disgusting and vile? I guess you lead a sheltered life to class a football kit as disgusting and vile. Typical trolling.
I think it looks ok, not the best and would of looked great all black but hay, guess i'll still buy it haha"
"To be honest I like it, but that thing around the neck well i dont know if it had to be there still I think its nice. that picture of SG made me doubt a bit, overall its ok"
"Its a nice design a part from the awful grey bit around the neck and on the shorts if those were just black the top would be perfect,its a real shame,because I most probably won't be buying the kit now :(.Our Red home kit is the best we've had in years. "
"I've been really disappointed with warrior so far. Stick to proper football collars not poloshirt collars and grandad collars. Home top feels cheap as well. Won't be buying anything from warrior. Hopefully their stuff is much better next season."
"Liverpool did a great job partnering with Warrior. I like what I have seen from them so far and hope both insutions succeed together for years to come."
"That Grey thing around the chest and shoulders seems a bit strange but I'll give it 10/10 for originality, the kit overall is trendy and unique, wouldn't hesitate to buy and wear it, classy like the 1st strip, yep it's a winner alright, well done Warrior! Looked at the training strips and jackets, brilliant! "
"really like it, it made me look twice when I first saw it, working the collar out, but I think its meant to look like they are wearing a tabard over armour, very cool and with the warrior spirit!!!"
"So the grey thing, yoke, whatever is to remember the sailors of 1900-1901 (like the kit way back then) and the maritime theme. Maybe Pepe should have had a Yellow Submarine on his chest lol. The kit is ok and I'd wear it no problem. So the whole squad will have to learn to dance 'The Hornpipe'. "
"love the red trim, the keeper looks tight, all in all hopefully they'll be able to play as mean and tough as the kit's make them look - here's to away winsss YNWA"
""roobes" , i agree , it could be the Starship Enterprise Rugby Team Strip.... Still , its better than the home kit ..... I really want a New shirt for this new exciting era so please let the 3rd kit be OK at least !"
"the 1900-06 away kit was white and the "yoke" looked ridiculous then just as it does now. Many other older kits that could have served as better copying of old to save money on designing something new. Don't get me wrong I don't mind a black away kit but that neck feature is horrible. Some things should stay in the past."
"looks ok to me prob wont buy it but happy to see th guys in it..and evryone whos slating it settle down ur enled to ur opinion but using words like disgusting and horrible going a bit far..take it easy chaps.."
"hope it hasn't got that thick bit of material round the back of the inside of the neck like the home kit has - it's very uncomfortable, catches on my neck hair and itches/irritates. Whoever decided the shirt needed that thick bit with the W logo inside the back of the neck obviously never tested it for comfort. Ruins the shirt totally. Anyone else have same problem?"
"I think warrior have showed with the two new kurs that they have taken an interest in our past history. The new kurs reflects this and i think they are both very modern and retro. Well done Warrior!"
" Chasanfield , yes it does have that thick bit , its there to hide up the inside of the flames/96 embroidery ... see also my comment 7:03 . Loadsa quality issues with these cheapo shirts coming to light !"
"Unbalanced.
Looks like patchwork
The last away kit was much better.
Did they bother to ask any fans about this design before it went into production?"
" Vanillafudge - Gotcha. I've washed mine once - hand wash, and it's ok but dunno what a machine would do to it. Maybe if LFC get enough complaints they may do a product recall? I'm wondering whether to try n cut the thick bit out, as it really is uncomfortable. Don't fancy havin to shave me neck every day! "
"Chasanfield - I would nt cut anything out , it will just expose the inside of the rear embroidery , and you think you got probs now ! I think the Adult White Jersey for £30 in the training section of the shop should be the away kit , much nicer by far . But i wont be buying any of it !"
""brand new fantastic Warrior state-of-the-art" - who is writing this for you??
Great looking kit but way too many adjectives. We're on this site most likely because we're fans - you don't have to over sell anything to us!!!"
"Sailors!!! What next? Will the players be coming out of the tunnel to "it's raining men" or "young hearts run free" I think we're gonna take some stick for this one. Agree with the quality issue. New kit feels nasty."
"away kit is fine, home kit very good imo. doesnt really
matter anyway warrior pay good money to make our kits so if it was a mini skirt and a wife beater i wouldnt care!!!!YNWA"
"Decent and different ps is it true that the home kit is only for one season as it says 2012-13 on the website if that's the case that's abit naughty of warrior n lfc to expect fans to buy all three kits then only to realise there one season wonders ESP in the current exon"
"Ps my last comment should read current economIc climate
But I guess warrior kits r different n unique unlike the adidas ones which were mass produced for lots of clubs n just the sppropriate teams badge n colour splashed on them so 10/10 for uniqueness warrior!! Hopefully Rodgers will get to spend some of that money on some decent signings ynwa"
"I got to say im really pleased with both the Kits. Worrior have really done a great job. I will be buying both. I really like this away kit. Awsome:)
YNWA"
"Wait for it a third kit? European kit to follow. Getting to be p**s take like the Red Manx, when the Glaziers took over 3 kits minimum each year. Make them for 2 years each please."
"The kit deal is worth far more than any other UK club has. Valuable sponsorship income is much needed. 100% rise in on-line purchases of the home strip hasn't obviously detered people!!"
"I'm quite alright with the Home Kit but totally dislike the away kit. Anyway, if LFC can win the League this coming season, who care about the kits ?
"
"im not one of these people that just comes on here to moan but this kit is the worst we have ever had , its nearly as bad as UTD`s new tartan kit lol, they look like they should be in game of thrones"
"The Issue we should all be concerned with the most is QUALITY .... They may look nice they may look disgusting , its a matter of taste.... BUT there are a few quality issues presenting themselves already, Collars coming loose , Embroidery shrinking / curling , bad finishing , tacky feel ... won't be getting my dosh for this cheap cr ap !"
"why black/grey or whatever colour you want to call it? haven't we seen enough dark days recently without this being put on us,100% no way buying it.give us colours!!"
"This kit has nothing to do with who we are. It doesn't say 'Liverpool'.
This has been an issue for a number of years even with home kits. This year's is better but the away strip is just a commercial decision.Dreadful
Bringbackdjimi."
"disgusting, home kit was of poor quality , this kit is the worst i have seen? who would wear warrior over adidas or nike in the sporting world? nobody... "
"Black again? Why are we neglecting yellow and green. Lemme guess the 3rd kit is going to be white? smh. The home kit is ugly..the away kit is worse. Well on the positive side at least I can use my money for something else."
"I reckon it looks really sharp. Better than the mock ups for it anyway. Don't believe what you read about the purple because the mockup for the away kit was black with red trim, but the yellow looks really nice.
I love the collar too, and the grey is cool.
Hoping, hoping, hoping like mad for a yellow 3rd strip with red trim, it's the best colour for an away kit."
"No, that is quite horrible!! I will not buy it! The home kit is ok-ish, i'm happy that we have warrior sports but they need to get in touch with modern u,k designs and more in touch with what liverpool fc is! Awesome..."
"I have to agree with some members here , the quality is pretty poor, embroidering, the finishing touches and attention to detail all need looking at, how could they launch a product with the LFC badge on it and make it so poorly and cheaply?!"
"Like the history link , looks pretty good much better than that awful grey of yrs ago or blue of last yr... hope we score tons of goals via suarez etc in it , then it will be good !!
Steve , Spain ."
"anyone that says this is aweful are clearly the kind of people that run about in sweat pants and a wife beater all day. this is clearly very stylish, and just because the collar is different does not mean its bad....overall i love this new kit! Bring on the new season! YNWA"
"legendary-red- I don't run about in sweat pants and I don't have a wife...so what am I? Why do idiots say stuff like that? It's called an OPINION...but you probably don't know what that is..as the media probably forms one for you. I don't like it..but I don't make outrageous remarks about anyone who does like it. Jeez have a word. "
"this is way too bad, just how bad is that blue around the neck plus its baggy as an ice hockey shirt, adidas were awesome, cant believe the yanks got rid of them for this awful warrior, they just want money and money"
"Liverpools away kit was always white shirt black shorts.Why go for all black it doesnt look great and players also have difficulty finding each other.Mind you they sometimes have the same problem wearing red.Why change tradition."
"got my home kit already,seems like i will be getting the away kit as well. it looks mean...:) but will wait for the 3rd kit to be released. got budget for 2 jerseys only...haha."
"Really disappointed in this design. It doesn't look like a Liverpool kit and the grey hoop looks awful. Saying that, I hope that it looks better in the flesh just as the home shirt does."
"Look at Martin Skrtels photo and you just automatically think Prison Break haha. Awesome away strip, The home one is better but wow Warrior are top notch."
"Funny comments. Didn't realise so many fans were fashion experts haha! Does it matter that much? Looks pretty good, players can see each other on the pitch and we'll wear it just a few times. It'll get bought and raise funds. We've just had record sales on the home kit despite the so-called mixed reviews. Don't like it, don't buy it. Just give me a break from the dramatic hyperbole!"
"Check this out folks, super site to check old kits, see 1900-1906 away strip on liverpool kit page. Some interesting reading about club crest etc. See where they got idea for this new super 2nd kit from 1900.
.historicalkits.co.uk.
Some interesting stuff for those who don't know it already. Rushjob, Buddha, LDW etc check it out."
"Really stupid looking neckline especially because of the grey 'Yoke'.The yoke is a joke and makes the players look like village idiots.
Warrior should take these back they are daft.Worst looking Liverpool kit ever !"
"Interesting fact everyone, sadly it is a fact. When Liverpool F.C. started to advertise Alcohol on the front of their shirts around 1991-1992 (Carlsberg) our club went into serious decline and hasn't recovered yet. God's Judgement perhaps? Notice when Kenny took over we dropped Carlsberg (Alcohol) we changed to Standard Chartered, things may start to improve dramatically."
"The 'grey(bib)thing' seems like a representation of the old chainmail armour that Many medieval soldiers & warriors e.g. Normans may have worn for shoulder protection from swords striking downwards etc, offering some protection for the vunerable collarbone, also when carrying loads on the shoulder. Warrior theme.
Great Kit Buy One!! "
"Pepe's yellow diving suit is going to be worn when he sails in his Yellow Submarine. Seriously these new kits are designed to wick sweat away from the skin, keep dry , retain heat in colder temperatures, are meant to be lightweight and will mak great baslayers under fleeces during winter months. you can also wear other baselayers under these, great gear top quality. don't wash above 30 degrees!"
"please ignore my last comment..one of my idiot co-workers made that comment......as far as the away kit....does a cape come with it...looks like a tunic around their necks...give the fans a say on the next design..YNWA"
"Black, Grey & Yellow what a brilliant colour combination. These Warrior guys are very original, very clever and very classy designers. Considering this is their very first attempt at designing a whole new KFC range of gear, they cannot be congratulated adequately enough, Well done guys, well done! p.s. The LFC training gear is absolutely Fantastic!"
"i love the home kit..but who on earth passed this..its utter S''t..awful!!...tops are a real good money spinner for clubs, but i cant see this selling many at all...big let down"
"Black, Grey & Yellow what a brilliant colour combination. These Warrior guys are very original, very clever and very classy designers. Considering this is their very first attempt at designing a whole new LFC range of gear, they cannot be congratulated adequately enough, Well done guys, well done! p.s. The LFC training gear is absolutely Fantastic!"
"Love it, now i don't know what to do. I prefer shopping from the LFC online store but warrior online store maybe fast to deliver because its right here in America.
Home and away i will get both"
"Scousesuarez7. Why are you bothered what the away kit looks like - you are off to support another club. But I see you are still with us. Still looking I guess........"
"Anyone else think it looks a bit "star trek" ? I like the idea of paying tribute to the sailors but I must say I don't know if i'll buy it, might let it grow on me first. "
"As a resident of the USA Does anyone know how I can order the new kit direct from Warrior's website? Their site says they only ship to the USA, there are plenty of photos of the new kit, but I can't see how to order one! frustrating!!"
"Not sure about Reina's own, but I think this is nicer than the home kit. I love it. Now all we need to do is win away matches in them. Great job warrior."
"Warrior have done amazing things on just their first attempt to design a complete new range of gear for us, the range of training gear is awesome, wish I could afford the lot, just hard to choose. The home and away kits are so original and boss!"
"Along with Arsenal's range of gear, I think they're the best outfits in the entire EPL, just wait until you see the players wearing them in matches, they'll look superb. "
"They'll need to make grey socks for the away kit as when playing manu at OT both teams can't wear black socks, so either they make us grey socks to change or use standard red ones or we'll need a third kit asap. An all white kit should be considered, or yellow as well. "
"Both Great kits, like Lonewar said makes us look like warriors/gladiators Shanks put us in all red to make the opposition fear us! Looks like we're doing it again, for too long we've been too cautious, now it's time to stop pussy footing around and attack the opposition, contd "
"now over to you BR & the players to show what talented players you really are. The Reds are coming up the hill boys & in black we're going to roll down the other side & flaten the opposition!"
"Yeah. They all have about the same expressions I had on my face when I saw this new kit. Just cuz I support the club doesn't mean I have to support the away kit. :P"
"Awesome. I hated the 2008 season "blouse" with the girly white seams and stuff - this hard look for the home and away kits along with some mean photography is great."
"Black and grey are not LFC colours. Looks as bad as all of the past efforts in these colours! We should stick to white and yellow as away strip colours."
"Nice to see that American designers ave used the traditions of Liverpool in their kit designs.. Yes this is a nice looking MEAN KIT!! Cannot fault the Warrior team for this design at all SPOT ON"
"I'm not mad on it. I love a long sleeve jersey but I just cant help thinking of the uniforms from star trek next generation.
I'm afraid I'm gonna have to see it with my own eyes before purchasing, it doesn't look.
Has anybody else's Standard Chartered graphics started peeling off their old kit?"
"Last season's away kit was a stunner and in that sense this new away kit has been a let down. It would have looked much better if it was all black instead of those grey patches."
