Liverpool have officially launched their new away kit for the 2022/23 season, and its design is one that has left fans feeling a little dizzy.
Nike has often been asked to deliver a unique kit and they have certainly done so with their latest offering to Reds, with the away kit having a “dizzying” design.
Unveiled on Tuesday morning, the new kit features an iridescent pattern on the front and on its sleeves, with a predominantly white back allowing for player names and numbers.
The design is said to be “inspired by the city’s vibrant music scene and in particular the pioneering role it played in the 90s dance music scene.”
And its reception across social media was an honest one from fans, who had plenty of thoughts on the new look that will be first seen in the pre-season clash with Man United.
It lives up to the “dizzying” tag
Reminds me of when stripy shirts sometimes look weird on TV (moire effect?) but maybe this will have some opposite effect on TV.
We’ll maybe find out later, #LFC are using it in the ‘friendly’ against #MUFC this afternoon. pic.twitter.com/DoerHfXDoc

Others were fans of its uniqueness
Fans always cried out for ‘unique kits’ well this is certainly unique. Never seen a design like this before.
