1993-96
Third players & replica shirt
Manufacturer: Adidas
Club sponsor: Carlsberg

In this third shirt (big Carlsberg logo) Liverpool first played in away Premier
League match versus Sheffield United, 0-0, 26.12.1993, at Bramall Lane.
Replica shirt short sleeve price: J32,99 (the price is specified
in a year of made and sale of this shirt, 1994-95)
BEWARE: Finding a genuine match worn shirt from this era is
extremely difficult. Despite the common misunderstanding, Adidas DID release long sleeve
replicas to the public. Furthermore, there was no simple ‘big verses little’ Carlsberg
comparison, and both shirts had embroidered Adidas logos. There are many shirts in this
style on eBay that claim to be match worn but these usually turn out to be long sleeve
replicas with names and numbers added. There are however a number of tiny differences that
can prove the authenticity of these shirts, but I will not post these online to avoid
fraudsters gaining some useful tips in their quest to rip off the public. If you cannot
distinguish a player shirt from a replica or a semifinished item, consult to Michael
Yip.
Difference between a player shirt and a replica
shirt, and as other features of a player shirt
Some text in down and photographies take with site: www.liverpoolkits.com.
Attention! It is very difficult to distinguish the third
player shirt from a replica shirt, the basic differences which were used in a home and
away player shirts from replica shirts, here do not operate. So will read through caution
below.
Now can write, what third shirt with: 1- the registered mark
"circle-R" on Adidas write, 2 - club crest has pure white flame from a white
torches, 3 - fabric is incorporated with "LIVERPOOL" word watermarks. This third
shirt with different, players shirt and hot have replicf shirt, if only they not fake.
The fourth difference is NOT noted by most collectors.
Top image, in standard player shirt's fabric is incorporated
with "LIVERPOOL" word watermarks; Note also that the midpoint of the Liverpool
crest aligns with the Trifolium of the Carlsberg logo beneath it and have the registered
mark "circle-R" on Adidas write, use on third shirt in season 1993-94.
Bottom image, in standard player shirt's fabric has no such
watermarks. Note also that the midpoint of the Liverpool crest aligns with the letter
"g" of the Carlsberg logo beneath it and without the registered mark
"circle-R" on Adidas write, use on third shirt in seasons 1994-95 & 1995-96.
Many thanks Michael Yip for given to me images and text.
Many collector thinks that the replica counter is exactly the
same as the genuine player shirt apart from no long sleeves version (this style is the
only commercially released shirt with the 27cm big Carlsberg sponsor). However, I am glad
to be prompted by Craig Mortimer that even if you get a short sleeved player shirt, it is
different from the replica.
I place the replica shirt inline with the player shirt on the right hand.
Left image, in standard player shirt's club crest has pure white flame from a white
torches, use on third shirt in season 1993-94.
Middle: Note that the player shirt's club crest is a bit shorter and smaller than
the player shirt's one. The words of {LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB" are bolded and
thicker, so do the words of "EST. 1892". The two candle stands (black crosses)
on the player shirt is slimmer though.
Right: Note that the replica shirt's club crest is a bit longer and bigger than the
player shirt's one. The words of "LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB" are less bolded and
slimmer, so do the words of "EST. 1892". The two candle stands (black crosses)
on the replica is bolder though.
Besides, the three Liverbird looks a bit different.
Last but never least, the background pattern of the shirt is displaced a bit upper
for the player shirt.
Let us look at the back side of the collar label.
Left: Replica shirt's collar label has bigger words.
Right: Player shirt's collar label has small words.
Also note that the washing instructions icons differ.
Let us look at
the collar label.
Left: Replica shirt's collar label has bigger words. We see the three blue Adidas
vertical stripes align with the words"BRAND WITH".
Right: Player shirt's collar label has smaller words. We see the three blue Adidas
vertical stripes align with the words "BRAND WITH" as well as partial portion of
the two words "THE".

thin plastic-like felt-on material (on player shirt). |
