It’s official, Liverpool will be back wearing Adidas kits from the 2025/26 season.

The Reds have been decked out in Nike for the past five seasons having signed a deal back in 2020.

However, with the American sportswear firm being somewhat hit and miss in the eyes of a lot of Liverpool supporters, Adidas are set to make their return.

For plenty of the Anfield faithful, kits made by the German company have been some of the very best in Liverpool history.

And as the Reds gear up to wear the three stripes once again, here’s our top five Liverpool Adidas kits from the manufacturer’s previous run from 2006-2012.

The 2009/10 season was a poor one for Liverpool, with Rafa Benitez’s side suffering a hangover from a year in which they came so close to winning the Premier League.

However, the kits were still on point.

Adidas made the ever-popular decision to put out a black away shirt, with some eye-catching gold trim.

The kit was not a particularly successful one in terms of on-pitch results, but a memorable Fernando Torres header at Old Trafford while pairing the shirt with gold shorts stands out as a good moment.

During their six years as Liverpool’s kit maker, Adidas only released three home shirts.

It really felt like the Reds were on their way to doing something special.

And while they ultimately fell just short, the campaign did deliver one of the best results of recent Liverpool history.

Jurgen Klopp’s team may have eclipsed it with their 5-0 win in 2021, but until then, Liverpool’s 4-1 victory at Old Trafford in 2009 remained a landmark moment.

They achieved it cladded out in a superb grey and red number which was reminiscent of the iconic ‘Candy’ away kit of 1989/90.

Liverpool signed a deal with Adidas in 2006 after being kitted out by Reebok for the previous 10 years.

And straight out of the gate, Adidas smashed it.

Liverpool didn’t wear this shirt often, but they did pick up a memorable come-from-behind win against Barcelona in the Camp Nou in February 2007 and for that, it will forever remain iconic.

Obviously, we have chosen to leave out Liverpool’s Adidas kits from 1985-96, simply because there are far too many good ones to choose from.

But in terms of the most recent kits from 2006-12, there’s little argument that the brilliant emerald green third kit effort of 2008/09 wins the day.

This really is a gorgeous effort, with the black shorts and green or white socks completing a stylish look for Liverpool.

The Reds did not often wear this ensemble, and good luck to anyone trying to get their hands on one today.
