In general difficultly in detail to write about these years
Liverpool, but I shall return to this stage of their history and I shall write more in
detail. May be all not as, how I has written.
In a season 1953-54 the design away shirt (red turn-down collar & long sleeve)
has changed. Liverpool used away shirt three seasons, 1953-54, 1954-55 & 1955-56 (time
of use shirt is probably inexact).
In a season 1953-54 the design away shirt (white turn-down collar & short
sleeve) has changed. Liverpool used away shirt three seasons, 1953-54, 1954-55 &
1955-56 (time of use shirt is probably inexact).
In a season 1954-55 the design away shirt (V-neck collar & without Liverbird)
has changed. Liverpool used away shirt one season, 1955-56 (time of use shirt is probably
inexact).
In a season 1955-56 the design away shirt (V-neck collar & Liverbird) has
changed. Liverpool used away shirt seven seasons, 1955-56 to 1961-62. Liverpool used with
away shirt different kits:
Away shorts and home socks
Home shorts and home socks
On 100% I can write, what in season 1955-56, Liverpool used

ABOUT THE KIT 1955/59
The home shirt changed to a single buttoned white stand collar, with red cuffs in
time for the 1955-56 season, a kit which would be used for at least three seasons.
It was also around this period, possibly the following season that the first
Liverpool V-neck strip was introduced. The red shirt, less baggy than its previous
incarnation, incorporated white cuffs and collar, with short sleeves becoming the norm.
The shorts remained white with red trim, with the socks remaining unchanged from the
previous post-War years.
A new away kit was also brought in, which was again a white shirt, black shorts
(although when clashed, the home white shorts were used) and white socks. A red trim was
prominent on the shirt collar and cuffs. ("Tops of The Kops" Peter Crilly)
Author site "Historicalkits.co.uk" Dave Moor, has assumed, that shirts
with a short sleeve, were used in good weather, and with a long sleeve, in cold. The logic
in it is, but may be so business in other.
About away shorts, shorts in 50's years Liverpool used shorts different long. May
be this design away shorts Liverpool used four seasons, 1953-54, 1954-55, 1955-56 &
1956-57. This design home socks Liverpool used with seasons, 1951-52 to 1957-58.
Front away player shirt with white turn-down collar, may be
used in seasons 1938-39 to 1957-58.
Pics: Liverbird on our chest
Midway through the 1955/56 season the Liverbird took pride of
place on the home shirt for the first time, reincarnated in a new design - red on a white
oval patch, still on its perch and now with the initials L.F.C. underneath. On the away
shirt it was the same design but with the colours reversed.
It is difficult to pinpoint just when the new badge first appeared on the shirt
although it's believed by most LFC historians that it was in November 1955. Worn on the
away shirt in a 4-2 defeat to Leeds at Elland Road and then on the home shirt during an
emphatic 7-0 victory over Fulham at Anfield the following week.
