Exclusive: Liverpool 27-28 Away Kit to Be Black

Update, 30 September 2026: Footy Headlines has since shared a design prediction for the black away shirt: a subtle grey argyle pattern across the body and sleeves, with the crest and adidas logo in bright pink. It is still a prediction, not the final design. The same round covered the 27-28 home kit and the 27-28 third kit.

TL;DR

• Footy Headlines reports that Liverpool’s 2027-28 away shirt will switch to a predominantly black base, ending a two-season run of white away kits.
• The kit is made by Adidas and is pencilled in for an official summer 2027 release — nearly a year away, so treat every detail below as provisional.
• The accent colour is not yet confirmed; the report suggests white, classic red or mint as the likely contrast tone.
• If it lands, this would be Liverpool’s first black away shirt since 2024-25 (made by Nike), and it would sit alongside a black base already used on the 2026-27 third shirt.

The Leak: What’s Been Reported

As of 13 September 2026, Footy Headlines has published an exclusive report claiming Liverpool’s 2027-28 away kit will move to a black base. The outlet’s write-up is built around colour information rather than a photographed sample, so this sits firmly in leak territory rather than confirmed product imagery — no manufacturing photos or design renders have been credited alongside the report.

The headline claim is simple: after two consecutive seasons of white away shirts, Liverpool and Adidas are reportedly reversing course for 2027-28. Release is pencilled in for summer 2027, which puts this leak roughly ten months ahead of an actual launch — plenty of time for details, or the plan itself, to change before Adidas confirms anything officially.

The one detail Footy Headlines states with confidence is the base colour: black. Everything else is speculative at this stage. The accent colour — the trim, stripe or contrast panel that would sit against the black base — is explicitly unconfirmed, with the report floating white, classic red or mint as plausible options. No collar shape, sponsor treatment, or graphic pattern has been reported at all, so we’re not going to invent any here.

What gives the leak some context is Liverpool’s recent kit history. Black has become a recurring alternative shade for the club: it’s already the base of the 2026-27 third shirt, and if the 27-28 away kit follows through as reported, it would be the first black away shirt at Anfield since 2024-25, which Nike produced before Adidas took over the kit deal. In other words, this wouldn’t be a totally new look for Liverpool fans — more a shift of an existing colour from the third kit slot into the away slot, on a completely different design.

How It Compares

Liverpool’s away kits under Adidas so far have leaned light — two straight seasons in white. A black away shirt would be a genuine departure from that pattern, and it would also put more separation between the away and third kits if Adidas keeps black on the 2027-28 third shirt too (nothing has been reported either way on that front). For context, our 2026/27 Liverpool third jersey already gives you a sense of how the club currently wears black on the pitch, ahead of any confirmed away-kit change for 2027-28.

When Can You Buy It?

Not yet, and not for a while. Footy Headlines’ own timeline points to a summer 2027 release, and replica kits typically don’t reach retailers until Adidas and the club make an official announcement closer to that date — historically a few months out at most. Until then, there’s no confirmed product to buy, and we’d treat any shirt claiming to be the “2027-28 Liverpool away kit” on sale today as unrelated to this leak.

In the meantime, our current Liverpool range covers the confirmed 2026/27 season, including the women’s third jersey and the kids’ home kit. We’re an independent retailer of replica supporter shirts and are not affiliated with Liverpool FC, adidas, or the Premier League — we simply stock replica kits for fans.

FAQ

Is the Liverpool 2027-28 away kit confirmed to be black?

No. As of 13 September 2026, this is a Footy Headlines leak based on reported colour information, not an official announcement from Liverpool or Adidas. The base colour is reported as black, but nothing has been confirmed by the club.

What accent colour will the 2027-28 Liverpool away kit have?

It’s unconfirmed. The report suggests white, classic red or mint are the most likely contrast tones to sit against the black base, but no final decision has been reported.

When will the Liverpool 2027-28 away kit be released?

The reported release window is summer 2027. That’s roughly ten months after this leak surfaced, so further details — or changes to the plan — are likely before an official launch.
