Leaked: Liverpool 2026/27 Away Kit — Trefoil Returns
TL;DR
- Official pictures of Liverpool’s 2026/27 adidas away kit leaked on 15 July via kit insider @opaleak, following a first look back on 7 July.
- The shirt is predominantly white with maroon-red branding, the classic adidas Trefoil in place of the Performance logo, and a shield-style print inspired by 1970s match tickets.
- Release is set for Tuesday 28 July 2026, alongside a purple goalkeeper strip that nods to the 1994/95 keeper shirt.
The Leak
Liverpool’s alternative strip for next season is no longer much of a secret. Kit insider @opaleak published what appear to be official product images on 15 July 2026, and they line up with the first look that surfaced on 7 July. Between the two drops, we now have the shirt, the shorts, the socks and the goalkeeper kit, which is effectively the full away package before adidas has said a word.
That sequence matters. A single blurry render is worth hedging over; a set of clean, catalogue-style images arriving a fortnight before a confirmed release date is usually the real thing. Footy Headlines carried the pictures first, and the timing fits the club’s recent pattern of launching away kits in the last week of July.
Design Breakdown
The base is white, and the accent colour is a deep maroon-red rather than the pillar-box red of the home shirt. It is a softer, more vintage pairing, and it sets the tone for everything else on the kit.
The headline detail is the branding. adidas has used the Trefoil, its Originals-era mark, instead of the three-bar Performance logo that appears on most modern first-team shirts. Clubs get the Trefoil sparingly, and it always reads as a deliberate throwback rather than a styling accident.
Across the front sits a shield-style crest pattern drawn from 1970s match tickets. It is a graphic reference to the stub you would have handed over at the turnstile, repeated across the chest as an all-over print. Collar and cuffs carry white, red and grey stripe detailing, the shorts have a retro-inspired crease, and the socks pick up hoop detailing on both the cuff and the tube.
The goalkeeper kit goes somewhere else entirely: purple, black and white, styled as a tribute to the purple keeper shirt Liverpool wore in 1994/95. Shorts and socks match.
How It Compares
Against the 2026/27 home shirt, this is the more restrained of the two, and that is the point. Liverpool away kits have swung between loud experiments and clean white classics for years, and this one lands firmly in the second camp while smuggling in enough archive detail to keep collectors interested.
The Trefoil is the piece that will do the talking. Paired with the ticket-stub print and the striped trims, it pushes the shirt closer to a terrace piece than a performance garment, which is a meaningful shift from the more minimal away shirts of recent seasons. Whether it ages better than a plain white alternative is a fair question, but it will not be mistaken for anyone else’s kit.
When Can You Buy It?

FAQ
Is this the real Liverpool 2026/27 away kit?
Almost certainly. The images published on 15 July 2026 are official product photography rather than fan renders, they come from a kit insider with a track record, and they match an earlier leak from 7 July. adidas has not confirmed the design publicly, so treat it as a very strong leak until launch day.
When does the Liverpool 2026/27 away kit release?
Tuesday 28 July 2026, according to the release date reported with the leak. That covers the replica shirt and the purple goalkeeper kit.
