Liverpool Debuts All-Red Socks - Here Is Why
Sep 22, 2019, by Chris
Update: Playing against Chelsea today, Liverpool were wearing their all-red change socks in order to avoid a sock kit clash at Chelsea, who wore white socks. Liverpool typically wear half-white and half-red socks with their 2019/20 home kit. All-red socks are their traditional choice.

Liverpool Forced To Register One-Colored Socks - Original Article
Liverpool's start in the 2019-2020 UEFA Champions League season was not successful at all as they lost 2-0 away against SSC Napoli. However, while the kit worn in the match was as expected, UEFA's match report reveals that the club had to register two special uniform variants...

Liverpool FC Has One-Colored Socks As Fourth & Fifth Choice
The UEFA report reveals that Liverpool has registered five different kits in total - the first, second and third choices are as expected, while the fourth and fifth choices are those that are interesting. The fourth is the standard home kit with one-colored red socks, while the fifth choice is the away with one-colored white socks.
Napoli, meanwhile, has registered four different kit variants (home, away, third + all-blue home).
Interestingly and quite logically, Liverpool is not the only team who had to register special versions of their kits. We expect that all New Balance teams competing in UEFA competitions in 2019-2020 had to register alternative versions with one-colored socks.
In fact, Inter Milan also has special one-colored socks for their away kit. It is the preferred (second) choice even though the kit was presented with "white / blue half-and-half" socks.
In fact, as reported by Museum of Jerseys, it is a similar situation to Arsenal in 2017-18. The Gunners’ first-choice socks were white with red, while their change set were solid red. The home socks weren’t allowed to be worn against the red of CSKA Moscow, so a plain white style was used.

Italian Serie C side Novara FC and technical partner Erreà have officially released the club's new third kit for the 26-27 season. Following the release of their traditional azzurro home strip earlier in the summer, the new third shirt delivers a stealthy, understated alternative aesthetic for the current campaign.
The Erreà Novara 26-27 third jersey is built on a solid black base and adopts a full monochrome palette. Instead of the standard club crest, the chest features Novara's historic crossed shield rendered in clean white embroidery. Erreà's logos on the right chest and shoulders, alongside long-time front-of-shirt sponsor Igor Gorgonzola and secondary partners Cristanini Viaggi and Intesa Pour Homme, are similarly applied in monochrome white.
Completing the strip, matching black shorts and black socks with white accents and crest detailing round off the uniform for the 26-27 Serie C campaign.

Presented under the slogan "Segunda Piel" (Second Skin), the Hummel RB Linense 26-27 away jersey combines a deep navy base with rich gold detailing. Across the front, the shirt features tonal diagonal sashes that create a dynamic textured look. Gold accents appear on the V-neck collar, the sleeve cuffs, and Hummel's trademark shoulder chevrons, which are matched by a monochrome metallic gold club crest and Lotus chest sponsor.
The new away uniform is completed by matching navy and gold shorts and socks. The RB Linense 26-27 away shirt is already available for purchase through the club's official offices.
