Liverpool is one of the most successful teams in English football, with a trophy cabinet packed with Premier League and Champions League glory. But, in and amongst the team's success, we were curious to know what have been the best Liverpool kits of all time.

Therefore, we did a little digging and have put together a list of some of the most iconic stripes worn by one of the biggest clubs in English football, a point reflected by the team's ratings on EA FC 24 - that's something to explore another time though.

The issue is, with the club's trophy cabinet well into double figures, and the club looking to add more wearing its 2023/24 home and away kits this season, there are almost too many great Liverpool kits to choose from.

However, there are a few strips that we think stand out from the crowd, whether that's through league success or historic Champions League moments, making them some of the best football kits of all time.

So, from modern designs, like this 2021/22 away strip, to some of the best retro football kits from the club's past, like this 1983/84 home jersey, we've rounded up the very best right here to help you find the right shirt to add to your collection.

Let's begin - here's our list of the best Liverpool kits of all time...

1. adidas Home Kit 1989/90

Best Liverpool kit of all time

The 1989/90 season saw a star-studded Liverpool team wear this iconic adidas jersey, one that the club has since released in a retro form in recent years.

What makes this kit so memorable is it combines a unique print pattern with the large Candy sponsorship placed right across the centre of the shirt. The kit saw some success too, with the club picking up the league title which Liverpool would fail to win again until the 2019/20 season.

With a combination of style and success, this 1989/90 adidas kit is definitely up there as one of the best Liverpool strips, if not the best football kits, of all time.

2. Reebok Home Kit 2004/05

Best Liverpool home kit

Despite not having the best league campaign, Liverpool's 2004/05 season was memorable thanks to the team's historic comeback in Istanbul to win the Champions League. From 3-0 down in the first half against AC Milan, Liverpool fought back to an incredible 3-3 draw which they would then go on to win via a penalty shootout.

As a result, the 2004/05 home kit is perhaps one of the most coveted among Liverpool fans, therefore making it well-deserving of a place on our list.

3. Nike Away Kit 2021/22

Best Liverpool away kit

Liverpool's team throughout the 2021/22 season was perhaps one of the most exciting to watch thanks to Mohammed Salah taking his immense talent to the next level. As a result, the squad picked up the Carabao Cup alongside strong performances in the Champions League, Premier League, and FA Cup competitions.

The shirt itself features a slightly cream tone with dark green and orange accents around the collar to match the colour scheme of the home jersey.

All in all, we feel the 2021/22 Nike away strip is definitely in contention as one of the best Liverpool away kits of all time.

4. Umbro Home Kit 1983/84

Best retro Liverpool Kit

The 1983/84 season was one of the most successful periods in the club's history, with the team at the time winning three out of a possible five trophies throughout the year. Therefore, we feel it makes sense to include this iconic red Umbro strip as one of the best retro Liverpool shirts of all time.

Not only do you get the usual red tone, but the kit also features unique white pinstripes to contrast the golden badge and branding, thus making this particular jersey stand out on the pitch.

The kit may be difficult to come by these days, but we still think it earns a spot on our list.

5. New Balance Home Kit 2018/19

Best modern Liverpool Kit

This 2018/19 home jersey was the fourth, and arguably the best, in the New Balance era of Liverpool kits.

What we like about its design, in particular, is that New Balance kept things fairly simple, utilising a deep red tone accented superbly by the white-trimmed collar. However, the kit doesn't just make our list through style alone. No, Liverpool's 2018/19 season is one of the most successful in recent history as the team won the Champions League for the first time since 2005.

Therefore, the kit not only features a great design, but it has some amazing history attached to it as well.
