1989 Liverpool Shirt Appraisal

Liverpool FC 1989-91 Away Retro Football Shirt

This item is a retro football shirt, specifically the away kit worn by Liverpool Football Club during the 1989-1991 seasons. The shirt is predominantly light gray with a distinctive 'diamond' pattern subtly woven or printed into the fabric, creating a textured visual effect. The collar is a V-neck style, trimmed with a prominent red band that contrasts sharply with the gray body. Matching red trim is visible on the cuffs (though only partially visible) and also on the shoulders, creating a cohesive design. The front features the Liverpool FC crest on the left chest, embroidered or skillfully heat-pressed in red with 'LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB' text below the Liver Bird motif. The main sponsor, 'Candy', is emblazoned across the chest in large, bold, raised red lettering, indicating a textured application rather than a flat print. The shirt appears to be short-sleeved. A small fabric tag is visible on the inner neck, indicating 'LFC' and a size 'M'. The item is still new, as evidenced by a brown cardboard hangtag attached to the collar with twine, providing brand information and suggesting it's an officially licensed retro reproduction. Its condition appears excellent, with no visible signs of wear, tears, stains, or damage. The colors are vibrant and the details are crisp, suggesting high-quality manufacturing typical of official merchandise or faithful reproductions. The shirt's style firmly places it in the late 1980s to early 1990s era of football kit design.
