Think I'll wait and see what the away kit has to offer

I think its ok after some the shirts recently I was dreading this one buts I am quite pleased by it.We do keep our strong amber which differentiates us from the anemic, insipid primrose

There was a blue & white one. Not sure if it was Saints or Wigan though

Like the colour and style. I did notice in the promo video that the one Rob Burrow was wearing had the Engage Super League logo on it. Any news on the new Super League sponsors yet?

Good to see available in 6xl.
My mate Joe might squeeze into one!

Got to agree,looks nothing like our traditional blue. Is it really that difficult to have a shirt in our traditional colours with a traditional banded design. Just seen Wigans home shirt and it's stunning in its simple and traditional design, i bet theirs flies out of the stores. Ours is slightly better than last years bland "Rugby Union" style shirt, but not that much better for me to hand over any of the folding stuff.

No, you had one in 2010. And in 2008 before that.

Whats wrong with a bit of change every now and then? I think it's a really smart shirt that.

It's a really smart, sharp design, just not for me. I won't get the same buzz when we run out in something that isn't really our club colours. I agree that to create a different kit with traditional design and colours would be a headache for the marketing people but our heritage obviously means more to me than other folks. Maybe i'm just an old fart

Think of it this way... Theres a strong chance you'll get a more traditional shirt next season now.

You may have seen my flag at some games, it's 6ftx6ft in "traditional" colours with the old Leeds crest in the middle, 3owls,sheep and all on it. I appear to be stuck in some kind of timewarp. Is the miners strike over yet?

Nice flag that.

People don'y seem to understand that there's only so much the club can do with the kit. If they had the same kit every year, no-one would buy it. If they had a very similar kit every year, much less would buy it. If they alternate between the various traditions (colour, irregular stripes etc) and some stuff a little bit more different, then it keeps people coming back for more.

If we have a 'traditional' shirt every 2 years, then the old one will be worn out by the time the new one comes around.

Like the look of both home and away shirt to be honest

I'm told that the official blue colour of Leeds RLFC was that of the blue in the Leeds emblem, but that doesnt mean the shirt has to be exactly that colour every single year

Where have you seen the away shirt? IIRC it doesn't come out until next February

Bit of a lazy copy of this.

Like most have said, it isnt bad, but it isnt paticularly good either.

It is absolutely nothing like that shirt.

Was gonna say the same!

It's the same design as the 2010 home shirt and the 2010 John Holmes pink charity shirt but nothing like that one in any way

You've heard the expression "Pie Eyed"?

I think it applies here.

Surely with all our forwards now in their 40's the dark colour is intended to hide middle age spread?

Does it really matter what the shirt looks like? It will sell by the bucket loads on the back of last season! If the side continues to be successful then it will sell even more, if it isn't then it won't. End of the day, what matters is the performances on the field, I will show my loyalty to the side by watching the play-off games, as has been proven this season, the rest of the season doesn't appear to matter much!

Yes, it's that time of year, Bah Humbug!

I like it. My kids will like it. This is going to cost!

i don't suppose you would care to enlighten us all how these above 2 shirts are in anyway similar?



i agree 100% with red rose rhino here ArcticGorilla
and that our new shirt is in fact a lazy copy of the john holmes testimonial shirt,please feel free to compare these 2 shirts again as they are slightly more similar



new one

john holmes testimonial one


you are living proof ArcticGorilla that life certainly looks very different through those cherry and white tinted glasses that get prescribed to you wiganers

maybe you should all try specsavers in future

Dont think they sent a size XS for burrow for the photoshoot it burys him in the video haha

Judging by last year, one kit sold out and they kept it at full price all year and the other they were practically giving away from half way through the season - so yeah, it does
