The jersey has a classic a cut and a great black colorway. The first thing to clear up is that the kit is not a fourth kit for the team, and will not be worn on English or European pitches this season. Instead, the jersey is the headline of a wider collection, it means that New Balance is tasting the ground and exploring the crossover between technical sportswear and fashion, regardless the fact that they designed some of the most beautiful jerseys of this season.
The wider collection features blackout Anfield and pocketed tees, as well as a hoody that fall under the cover of darkness, with all the detailing and finishes touches such as the club crest, New Balance logo and sponsor all executed in black.
