Jeez, is that really what it looks like? Will be interested to see it 'in the flesh', but that looks bloody awful.

Just seen it in MEN, I’ll stick my neck out and say that I quite like it. Agreed it’s not that traditional, but I think its good.

Don't know how to post it from my email address or i would...

it looks like they made a cherry and white shirt in poor material, then put it in the wash on too high of a heat, and the cherry ran into the white! atleast your collars are normal, and you havent been shafted like bradford.

Half an hour later and its growing on me



give it another hour and i may actually like it.

those white darts on the arms look like they've been photoshopped on to me!

I feel as though it'd be alright if it wasn't for the big white blotches on the chest. On first glance I thought the photo must've had loads of effects applied to it, but I fear that's actually what it's going to look like.

i certainly don't dislike it in the same way i disliked last seasons home shirt, after looking at it a few times i think it looks quite good..

Just got the cub e-mail:

Its red and pink FFS.

get bloody umbro back !

It looks like you done the washing!!!!!

I don't like it and won't be buying it, again.

Maybe one year the club will allow supporters to have an input into the design.

I've not bought a shirt in ages, but with this news the Mrs might even get me one.

Have to admit, I'm not 100% with that handkerchief in the wash look!!. I like a proper collar too.

exactly Alex !!

after all we are the ones buying the thing, our rob asked mike hogan this a few year ago !

it looks like someone badly sunburned in patches !

That's horrendous.

This will be the first home shirt in about 8 years I won't be buying.

You need to get in touch with your feminine side a bit more.

Horrible kit. The end of Kooga's contract can't come quick enough.

The failure to launch the new away shirt before Christmas is a big mistake from the club too, especially given how many fans I suspect won't be bothering with the home shirt.

lol

talk about making the lads look more fearsome !! might as well have Dale Winton wearing it

i think i'll be waiting to see what the away shirt looks like. i don't think it would have been quite so bad without those white spots, but i'm definately not buying this one.

It's awful. Not sure what IL was smoking when he signed off on it.

Really hope that the away kit is a more traditional design.

Don't know what to make of it just yet.

Its interesting, that's all I can say at the minute.



Given the number of classic retro Wigan shirts I own, I never buy new shirts anyway.

Awful - worst shirt in living memory. Can't think of a worse one than that.

Why do we need a "break from tradition"?

Definitely won't be buying that shirt; let's hope the away shirt is better.

There's breaking with tradition...and then there's just plain stupidness...
