Kitman: Liverpool's nasty new purple and tribal pattern third kit

Like a politician testing the water with a controversial policy, Liverpool wisely leaked a horrific computer-generated version of this kit a while back.

The finished version is pretty nasty, but it looks positively stylish in comparison to the draft version.

The shade of purple has been toned down in comparison to the leaked version. In a bid to bring an end to the tattoo rivalry between Martin Skrtel and Daniel Agger, which has threatened to tear the Reds’ defence apart, the kit comes with a tribal pattern already printed on the sleeves.

According to the club: “Coloured nightshade, orange and white, the kit takes inspiration from popular past goalkeeper strips worn by David James during the 1994-95 and 1995-96 seasons, and Pepe Reina in 2010-11.”

The kit is made by American manufacturer Warrior.
