It was revealed last week that the 2019-20 New Balance home strip is inspired on the design of the kit first debuted for the 1982-83 campaign.
It features thin vertical lines of white, similar to the style of the shirt in which Liverpool secured a 14th league title in Bob Paisley’s final season as manager.
The new kit also pays homage to Paisley in the year of the 100th anniversary of his birth and retains the deep shade of red present in recent years.
But the decision to introduce white pinstripes on a Liverpool shirt over three decades ago was deemed seismic in some quarters.
