Everton FC have revealed its new Hummel Home kit for the 2021/22 season. The dazzle-camouflage inspired kit features a two-tone patterned blue shirt, white shorts with royal blue and yellow detailing, and white socks.
 
The use of the dazzle pattern is inspired by the role of the city of Liverpool and its docks in painting naval ships with the inventive and bold livery during the First World War. The brainchild of a British marine artist, the use of contrasting shapes, tones and colours proved highly effective at disguising a vessel's size, speed, distance and direction, confusing the enemy at sea.
 
To this day, the practice is celebrated in Liverpool through a working Mersey ferry ‘Everybody Razzle Dazzle’, painted to commemorate the dazzle ships in 2014 as part of the city’s First World War centenary activities.
 
This season's home kit will be environmentally friendly in line with the Club's ‘Everton For Change’ initiative and feature hummel's ECO8 technology. New for this campaign, the implementation of ECO8 means each shirt is manufactured from high-performing polyester produced from up to eight recycled plastic bottles.
