In this dsign home shirt (V-neck collar & without Liverbird) Liverpool first played in

In this home shirt (V-neck collar & Liverbird) Liverpool may be first played in away Division Second match versus Leeds United, 2-0, 19.11.1955, at Elland Road.

In a season 1955-56 the design home shirt (withoit Liverbird) has changed. Liverpool used home shirt one season, 1955-56 (time of use shirt is probably inexact). Liverpool used home shirt how in more home, as and in more away matches.

In a season 1955-56 the design home shirt )Liverbird) has changed. Liverpool used home shirt eight seasons, 1955-56 to 1962-63 (time of use shirt is probably inexact). Liverpool used home shirt how in more home, as and in more away matches. In season 1955-56 also used second home shirt (white turn-down collar).

H 1.0 - Home shirt (without Liverbird) with home shorts & home socks.
H 1.1 - Home shirt (Liverbird) with home shorts & home socks.
H or S H - Unknown me now which design home kits used in this matches, but I assume used home shirt.
H or S H or A - Unknown me now which design home or away kits used in this matches.

With home shirt, Liverpool used home shorts (white color) and home socks (red-white color), but possible in one of away matches used away shorts (black color). Now I not know, was used white color socks in season 1956-57.

Shirt this style (V-neck collar and short sleeves) else named now "Continental shirts". UMBRO factory made this style (V-neck collar and short sleeves) of different fabric, "lightweight cotton interlock fabric" and " heavyweight cotton interlock fabric".

		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) 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.

		Main change, home shirt 1952-53, from home shirt 1953-54, collar became white color. Else one detail, how you understand, this only my assume. Red shirt old style with red with turn-down collar was how now say was upgrade. That is, the red collar has been removed, and on its place is sewn, a white collar. I only so can explain how this white collar is sewn, get accustomed closely (in a red circle). I also this opgraid (collar) was madr on private sewing workshop. 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. Else what you know, home shirt with turn-down collar and long sleeves also made from different fabrics on thickness. My pages about history of Liverpool shirts in 50s years, most likely, contain mistakes in dating use of a shirt with a while turn-down collar or with V-neck collar. Why it is difficult, not so it is a lot of photos (at me) these years and very little where there is a date when the photo is made. It concerns also a photo of a Liverpool team.

In season 1957-58, in match Stoke City-Liverpool (23.09.1957), Liverpool played in home shirt, as was and in season 1957-58, on this moment I not know. In season 1957-58, in match Sheffield United-Liverpool (30.11.1957), Liverpool played in away shirt.

H or S H or A - Unknown me now which design home kits used in this matches.

Why this shirt from my site have name "Second home player shirt", only for classification of the kits.

Liverpool used home shorts (white color) and home socks (red-white color), but possible in one of away matches used away shorts (black color).

Home shirt with turn-down collar Liverpool used more seasons. 1933-34 to 1939-40, 1944-45 & 1946-47 to 1957-58. For all this seasons home shirt with turn-down collar was some changes, how for fabric, as and color collar. Whether indeed on a rack of a collar of a button or not. In down will soon show different variants home shirt with turn-down collar. What about fabrics for home shirt with turn-down collar. The fabric was used different, both on thickness, and on structure of a fabric and on its properties.

		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.

Some late I will show different turn-down collar which used Liverpool, on home shirt in 30s-40s-50s years.

How I assume. shirts with turn-down collar, which also used Liverpool F.C. also can used in training match or Reserves and Liverpool "A", "B" teams in seasons 1958-59 & 1959-60. Fragment with pre-season team photo1959-60 or 1960-61.

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)

For all eight seasons, 1955-56 to 1962-63 this shirt (V-neck collar with Liverbird) course can made of different fabrics, on thickness and color.

Down we can to see matches list when used away kits was. In section A 1.0 / H 1.0 have teams how: Blackpool, Stoke City, Sunderland and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Why this team here, as how I not have photos or information with this match. In some seasons, Liverpool played in away matches with these teams in home kits.

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.

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.

In this design third shirt Liverpool may be first played in home FA Cup match versus Accrington Stanley, 07.01.1956, 2-0, at Anfield.

In a season 1966-67 the design third shirt has changed. Liverpool used third shirt two seasons, 1966-67 & 1967-68 (time of use shirt is probably inexact).

T 1.0 - Third shirt with home shorts & home socks.

My pages about history of Liverpool shirts in 50th years, most likely, contain mistakes in dating use of a shirt with a while turn-down collars. Why it is difficult, not so it is a lot of photos (at me) these years and very little where there is a date when the photo is made. It concerns also a photo of a Liverpool team.

Interesting fact. In home FA Cup match between Liverpool and Accrington Stanley (07.01.1956), teams Liverpool and Accrington Stanley have red shirts. Now can say, what else long time before start match, yellow shirt was in Liverpool boot room, to see below fragment of match day programme. In programme printed what color shirt - gold. Rule for FA Cup matches, if clubs have identical colors, this teams played in away shirts, both. Before I think what rule work in FA Cup Semi-Final or Final matches.

Liverpool goalkeeper Dave Underwood is challenged by an Accrington Stanley forward during the third-round FA Cup tie.
The small background of occurrence of this colour photo, of course, it was black-and-white and then, is painted. But at first the reporting on a match where there was a following text «Liverpool were first out, in yellow shirts with white shorts and their usual red and white stockings.» has been found in one of newspapers.
The question is natural, used Liverpool FC, in 30, 40 and 50th years yellow shirts, I do not know. Can be us further more many opening wait.

Rule where the colours of the two competing clubs are similar, both clubs must change unless alternative arrangements are mutually agreed by the competing clubs. For Liverpool and other team was used in matches:

Liverpool-Exeter City, FA Cup 4th Round, 28.01.1950.
Liverpool-Accrington Stanley, FA Cup 3rd Round, 07.01.1956.
Liverpool-Arsenal, FA Cup Final, 29.04.1950.
Liverpool-Manchester United FA Cup Semi-Final, 31.03.1979.
Liverpool-Manchester United FA Cup Semi-Final Replay, 04.04.1979.

Only in season 1979-80, Liverpool played three FA Cup Semi-Final matches versus Arsenal, teams by turns used the home and away kits.

This rule in other matches FA Cup Final or Semi-Final, work, as and not work, how in match FA Cup Final Liverpool-Arsenal, 08.05.1971.


	1966-67		1967-68		1979-79

14 December 1966, in home match European Cup versus Ajax (Netherlands), at Anfield, Liverpool used, may be in first, may be not, third shirt. Third kits was yellow color shirt with black shorts, yellow socks.

Why Liverpool played in home match in third kits, you can read better here."Roared on by an exultant Kop, Liverpool, in an unfamiliar change strip of canary yellow shirts and black shorts" - here

Then Liverpool used yellow shirt Liverpool used in away Division One match versus Arsenal (28.08.1967).
