Liverpool 3rd Kit Leaked Ahead of 2026/27 Season

Liverpool 3rd Kit Leaked as Fan Reaction Divides Opinion

Kit launches have become almost as eagerly anticipated as transfer announcements, and Liverpool supporters are already debating the club’s leaked third strip for the 2026/27 campaign.

Images circulating online suggest the new Liverpool 3rd kit will feature a maroon and black pattern alongside a silver crest, with black shorts and matching socks incorporating silver Adidas detailing. The design is said to draw inspiration from the sight of flags waving across the Kop, interpreted through an abstract pattern.

While Adidas has enjoyed a strong start since taking over from Nike, the reaction to this leaked design has been far less unanimous.

Fan Opinion Remains Split

The biggest talking point surrounding the leaked shirt has been its appearance away from the pitch.

One supporter summed up the concerns bluntly, describing it as: “Like a training shirt!”

That sentiment has been echoed across social media, where some fans have questioned whether the design feels distinctive enough to serve as a matchday kit.

Others, however, have urged caution before rushing to judgement.

Reality Often Changes Perception

Liverpool supporters have seen this story before. Leaked images rarely tell the full story.

The home shirt, released in May, received widespread praise for its geometric pattern inspired by the club’s 1989 to 1991 design. Yet even that kit looked slightly different once players wore it in competitive action.

Photographs, lighting and manufacturing samples can all affect first impressions.

It is always difficult to tell whether a kit look good until it is seen in real life.

Adidas Hope to Continue Strong Run

Adidas have largely won over Liverpool fans since returning as the club’s kit supplier. The home shirt has been popular and early previews of the away strip have also generated positive feedback.

That places extra scrutiny on the Liverpool 3rd kit.

For now, the leaked images have sparked debate rather than universal approval. Whether supporters ultimately embrace the design may depend on how it looks under the lights at Anfield rather than on social media screens.

If recent history is any guide, final judgement can wait until the shirt is worn in action.
