In season 1997-98 first on shirt teams why played in Premier League on player number in down to have Premier League logo.   Reebok's first kit design for Liverpool incorporates several features intended to recall Liverpool teams of old. The home kit is plain red with little trim. The current Shankly gates and Hillsborough flame badge is set into a large oval, as in the kits of the 50s and 60s. The turn over collar is more of a break with tradition however, and is the first to appear on a Liverpool kit since the bad old days of Second Division football.

  Again the shirt sported the extra badge on the bottom of the shirt on the outside, This time the badge said simply "Reebok, Official Merchandise" along side a smaller version of the same Liver bird badge as seen on the chest of the shirt, The collar was all white apart from a red stripe that ran through it, This strip also appeared on the white band at the end of the sleeves.

  The badge was a curious design as the oval badge was a completely separate piece of material that had been sewn onto the shirt, the badge was stitched and not embossed in any way, The shirt did not display a stripe for the first time in a while, instead a very faint image of the Liver Bird can be seen running through out the shirts material, whether this was great attention to detail or a way to make it harder for the shirt to be copied by the fake market remains to be seen.

  Interesting fact: May be I mistake, but in season 1997-98, away goalkeeper kits were used only in away matches and with away kits. This interesting, before and after away goalkeeper kits, can used in home, as and in away matches.
