Premier League leaders Liverpool will wear adidas’ iconic three stripes from the 2025/26 season onwards after signing a multi-year partnership with the brand.
After spending the last five years in Nike attire, the Merseyside club have announced that adidas will be their official kit manufacturer as they look to reclaim their title as one of the most dominant sides in world football.
They currently sit 15 points ahead of the competition in the Premier League and two points ahead of an impressive Barcelona team in the Champions League.
The news of their partnership with adidas will come as welcome news to Liverpool fans, with some of the club’s most successful moments coming during adidas eras.
Liverpool first wore adidas in 1985/86 – the same season they won both the Premier League and FA Cup. Their partnership continued until 1996, before Reebok became their new manufacturer.
A second spell arrived in 2006, with legends such as Steven Gerrard and Xabi Alonso boasting adidas’ crest in the Champions League final against AC Milan.

Fans will have to wait until 1 August to discover the look of their new adidas shirts, but with the success of the brand over the last few years, it’s bound to be exciting.
A collaboration between adidas and Liverpool just makes sense – with so many of the club’s players also tied to the brand. Stars such as Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Darwin Núñez, Alexis Mac Allister and Diogo Jota are just some of the players who are already proud adidas athletes.
In the Premier League, Liverpool join the likes of Manchester United and Arsenal to be sponsored by adidas.
If you fancy some homework – remind yourself how nice the 2008 Liverpool adidas home kit was, you’re welcome.
