The Liverpool F.C. home kit is the kit worn by the Liverpool F.C. first team primarily during home matches, and also during away matches with teams who wear opposite colour kits. Over the years the kits have gone though several changes. The first kits from the clubs founding in 1892 to 1896 were blue and white quartered shirts with blue pants. In 1896 the colours changed to red shirts and white pants to differentiate between local rivals Everton who wore an all blue kit. The symbol of the city of Liverpool, the Liver Bird, was adopted as the club's crest in 1901. In 1964 then manager Bill Shankly decided to change the club's kit to the iconic all red that it is today. The home kit today is changed every year to two years with a different design.
