Liverpool FC Originals EQT collection, bringing one of adidas’ most distinctive 1990s football aesthetics back for a new generation.
Released on 17 September 2026, the collection continues the strong retro direction of Liverpool’s renewed partnership with adidas, combining classic Equipment-era styling with modern lifestyle clothing. Liverpool describe the range as being directly inspired by adidas’ distinctive 1990s teamwear.
For supporters who remember adidas football clothing from the decade, the combination of black and vivid green/teal immediately gives the collection a suitably nostalgic feel.
Liverpool adidas EQT Collection Brings Back the 90s
The new Liverpool adidas EQT collection takes its cues from the adidas Equipment era, when bold colour blocking, oversized panels and instantly recognisable branding became a major part of football fashion.
Rather than simply reproducing an old Liverpool design, adidas has taken that visual language and applied it to a completely new LFC lifestyle range.
Black provides the foundation for much of the collection, contrasted by striking green/teal panels across the shoulders, sleeves and legs.
The Liverpool crest has also been incorporated into the retro aesthetic, while the classic adidas Originals Trefoil branding reinforces the heritage look.
It is a particularly effective combination given Liverpool and adidas’ history together during the late 1980s and 1990s.
Retro Liverpool EQT Jersey Takes Centre Stage
Arguably the standout piece is the Liverpool FC adidas EQT jersey.
The predominantly black shirt features subtle vertical tonal striping through the body, with large green panels extending across the shoulders. Black detailing cuts through the shoulder panels to produce the angular appearance synonymous with adidas Equipment designs.
The front is kept refreshingly simple.
A white adidas wordmark and Trefoil sit above the Liverpool FC crest, which is presented centrally rather than in the conventional position on the left side of the chest.
Its loose-fitting silhouette and V-neck construction further enhance the unmistakable 1990s football-shirt appearance.
Although designed as lifestyle wear rather than a Liverpool match shirt, it is precisely the sort of piece likely to appeal to collectors of retro Liverpool shirts and vintage adidas football clothing.
Track Jackets, Pants and More
The EQT theme extends well beyond the jersey.
Liverpool and adidas have produced an extensive unisex collection featuring the jersey and matching shorts alongside a half-zip top, T-shirt, sweatshirt, track jacket, track pants and outerwear. A women’s track jacket and pants are also available, while the children’s collection includes a jersey, T-shirt, sweatshirt, track jacket and pants.
The track jacket is another particularly strong retro piece. Its black base is interrupted by large green geometric panels, with Liverpool’s crest embroidered onto the chest and adidas branding positioned around the collar.
Matching track pants continue the same colour-blocked treatment, allowing the two pieces to be worn as a complete 1990s-inspired Liverpool tracksuit.
Liverpool and adidas Continue to Embrace Their Heritage
The EQT launch follows several heritage-focused releases since Liverpool reunited with adidas.
Earlier in 2026, the two brands released the Bringback collection, including a 1:1 recreation of Liverpool’s famous 1995-96 away shirt and accompanying archive-inspired clothing.
More recently, the Liverpool Originals Teamgeist 26 range arrived alongside the club’s 2026-27 third kit, once again using an historic adidas design language as the basis for contemporary streetwear.
The latest EQT collection goes further back into one of adidas’ most influential periods.
Football shirts and tracksuits of the early-to-mid 1990s were rarely understated, and the new Liverpool range embraces that approach with oversized shapes, contrasting panels and prominent heritage branding.
A Proper 90s-Inspired Liverpool Collection
The new Liverpool FC x adidas Originals EQT collection demonstrates how effectively archive football design can translate into modern lifestyle clothing.
Rather than relying solely on Liverpool’s traditional red, adidas has embraced the black and green colour combination associated with its Equipment heritage, creating a collection that looks deliberately different from the club’s current match and training ranges.
The black EQT jersey is likely to attract the most attention, but the accompanying tracksuits and outerwear arguably capture the 1990s adidas aesthetic just as successfully.
For Liverpool supporters with a soft spot for classic football clothing, this is another release that taps directly into the era when adidas designs became as recognisable on the terraces as they were on the pitch.
