The 2020/21 season will represent the dawning of a new era for Liverpool.
Barring an impossible collapse, the first full season of the new decade will see Jurgen Klopp's kick off as champions of England for the first time in 30 years. They'll also be champions of the world, and might still be champions of Europe...though that last one remains a stretch just yet.
On top of the host of titles they will hold in August, however, they will also have shiny new home, away and third kits, courtesy of a groundbreaking deal with Nike. Liverpool and the sportswear giants will team up for the first time ever, and fans all over the world are anxious to see what the new kits will look like.
How much money am I going to spend on Liverpool/Nike gear? I mean seriously......

As ever, there are plenty of questions flying about with regards to the new kits...and using the limited information available, we've done our very best to answer all of them.
How Much Is Liverpool's Nike Deal Worth?
The NB deal generated £64m in 18/19 based on 1.8m shirts sold and club on track to sell 2.9m this season (so income of at least £75m). Given distribution, marketing and likely massive growth in sales of other apparel, I'd be shocked if income doesn't exceed £100m.

What Do We Know About the Designs?
On the home and away kits, not a lot. Concept designers have had a go at stirring up some visuals, but all red at home and turquoise and black away is about all we have to go on.
On the third kit, we've got a bit more to work with. Leaks have suggested a chequered black design with a hot pink trim, so you can imagine this one will divide the support as and when it comes out.
Should look similar to these which would be class pic.twitter.com/BScfKYayBD

There have been suggestions of a change to the crest. Nike could decide to move away from the simple Liverbird that has featured in recent seasons and return to a traditional crest, but we likely won't know for sure until they are released.

When Will the First Liverpool Nike Kits Be Launched?
Nike will combine the Liverpool 2020-2021 home jersey with red shorts and socks. Due to the supplier change, the new Liverpool FC 2020-21 home shirt will not be launched before June 1, 2020. [@Footy_Headlines]
