andyscoot Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I can't get a picture of it but it's a throwback to one of the old Norweb kits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver Clothesoff Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Hahaha brilliant. It was about time they had an abomination of a shirt again. It’s up there with the Norweb sneeze shirt and the pink effort the other year. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastLondonMike Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 No need at all for the stripe insert above the Hummel logo. Take that away and it's a lot better, though the whole thing could have been executed better. Hummel love reworking old jersey designs from other brands. First Umbro, now Puma. At least they've improved the neck opening. Newham Dockers - Champions 2013.

Rupert Prince Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I did not like the kit from nineteen frozen stiff, and this is not much better. But it does hark back deliberately to the era Wigan won everything 3 times over. So we would expect Saints fans not to like it. I do not like clubs changing strips. Find a good one and stick to it.

Dave T Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I'm not a fan of re-hashing these old kits, only slightly worse. Wigan did this with an Ellgren one a couple of years back too. I despised Wire's 2019 kit which was a re-hash of a 'meh' kit. I accept that having new kits each year will mean some repeats, but these Wigan kits appear to be cheap knock-off versions of the old 90's ones.

Shaggy Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 This is a poor year for kits. Huddersfield, Wakefield and Saints are ok but even then the execution isn't quite right.

Looks bold, no crappy little chevron like we have messed about with over the last few years,. Looks better as a whole kit when on the player. Not a fan of the logo but that’s a fair price to pay for a decent sponsorship. The photos of the merchandise version don’t do it justice I guess. Out of interest, when you say the 2019 kit was a re-hash of an old one, which year was that? I wasn’t a fan of last years kit either BTW. I’d really like to see a decent attempt at a white home shirt with primrose and blue detailing. The away kit could be blue with promise and white detailing. But that’s just me!

We do seem to have gone for blue as our main colour now, we appear to have only had a white kit once every ten years or so now. This despite white being the prominent kit during the 1980's and the one in my profile pic being used for the centenary season in 1995. Not sure if white kits sell less. On the sponsors, I must admit to not being too bothered by them really, we've had them for decades now. It is one of the reasons I like the Wire kit however, the sponsors, whilst prominent do not take away from the boldnness of the design - it is clearly a blue kit with two yellow chevrons.
