Full Liverpool x Converse Collection Released - No Football Kit But Stunning Green/Gold Football Shorts
The Liverpool x Converse collection has been officially launched. As revealed by us, the Liverpool x Converse collaboration does NOT see the launch of a football kit, but there is a stylish green and gold short inspired by football kits.
With their LeBron James collaborative pieces launched earlier this year, Liverpool have now moved onto promoting their next co-branded collection, this time with Converse. Both Converse and the LeBron James brand belong to Nike. Converse also has a history in basketball but is more of a lifestyle brand nowadays, and via the Liverpool collection they will be able to broaden their appeal to football fans, another sector of the market.
Liverpool x Converse Collection - 9 Items
The Converse x Liverpool collaboration is a firmly off-pitch affair. Both lifestyle pieces and footwear are included. In total, the collection features nine pieces, each dual-branded with both LFC and Converse logos.
The Converse Liverpool Chuck 70 high-top sneakers, a standout item in the collection, are covered with Liver birds, Sea Holly, and YNWA. The woven varsity jacket, another highlight, includes references to the 1984 European Cup final, where the Reds beat AS Roma on penalties.
The collection also includes a bucket hat, Run Star Hike sneakers, polo shirt, T-shirt, shorts, tracksuit top, and bottoms.
To showcase the collection, five young Reds were selected to model the pieces. Five LFC players - Andy Robertson, Fabio Carvalho, Shanice van de Sanden, Taylor Hinds, and Leanne Kiernan - also feature in the launch. The campaign, called "creating from the ground up," aims to celebrate the creative and diverse nature of LFC's supporters.

Converse's History in Football
This is Converse's first project of this nature with a football club, although they did make a brief foray into the boot market in the 80s, before a couple of short stints as kit suppliers to Atlético Nacional (Colombia) and Politehnico Timisoara (Romania) in the 2000s.
