Worn during Liverpool's 1995/96 campaign, this green and white adidas away shirt featured as Roy Evans' side finished third in the Premier League with 71 points and reached the FA Cup final.
The Reds featured an attacking squad including Robbie Fowler, Stan Collymore, Steve McManaman and Ian Rush, recording 20 league victories during the campaign.
One of Liverpool's most memorable performances came in April 1996, when they defeated Newcastle United 4–3 at Anfield in a match widely regarded as a Premier League classic. Fowler scored twice, while Collymore also scored twice, including a dramatic stoppage-time winner that secured all three points.
Liverpool also enjoyed an impressive FA Cup campaign, overcoming Shrewsbury Town, Charlton Athletic, Leeds United and Aston Villa to reach the final at Wembley. Facing Manchester United, the Reds were defeated 1–0 following a late goal from Eric Cantona.
Fowler finished as Liverpool's leading scorer with 36 goals in all competitions, including 28 in the Premier League, earning the PFA Young Player of the Year award for the second consecutive season.
The campaign also marked Rush's final season at Liverpool. The Welsh striker departed having scored a club-record 346 competitive goals.
Featuring a green and white quartered adidas design with a distinctive oversized collar and the Carlsberg sponsor, the 1995/96 away shirt is one of Liverpool's most recognisable alternative designs of the 1990s, combining traditional club colours with the bold styling of the era.

Condition
Each item is individually inspected and graded by our team to ensure an accurate representation of its condition.
Every item at The Soccer Archive is individually assessed and graded on our condition scale out of 10. This rating takes into account the overall quality of the fabric, print, badges and any natural signs of wear that come with age.
Most pieces we sell are vintage or pre-owned, meaning small signs of age can be part of their character.
