The home, for me, is the best we have had for a long, long time. It's a VERY Warrington looking strip, plenty of P&B and the right shades too, having a kit that was 90% Blue was doing my head in. I'm also glad we've convinced our main sponsor that they don't need their full logo on the shirt to advertise their company. Had 'one energy' done the same last year with their bright green box around their name this shirt would have looked awful, getting rid of it makes the shirt 10x better. Less is more as they say. It looks clean and not too crowded.

The away shirt? I don't like it personally but it isn't awful. Its a nice kit and looks good but it's just not a Wire kit for me.

all in all, very pleased with this years efforts probably in the top 3 teams kit wise next season

Looks like Currie has been carb loading!

Ps I realise they are not very flattering shirts and I would be Jelly Roll Mortonesque in one, which is why I don’t buy them.

Just had a look on line he's no Chubby Checker Captain?

As far as the shirts are concerned they are OK IMO i would have preferred a predominantly primrose and a proper shade or white. As others have said quite happy with the way the sponsors have been dealt with

I'm not a fan of either, I haven't liked any of the kits for a few seasons. I'll still be in the Emirates pnb hoops shirt next year and the brookson green and white.

I'd love to see the horizontal stripes shirts replicated, pnb for home and green and white away.

That home strip has been well thought out and well put together.

The jumble of sponsors is almost not noticed as the kit just works really well with them anyway.

Top kit, well impressed. Better than owt we had in all those years with ISC

My mate tried the Home kit on today, tried the XL which he always wears and has lost a little bit of weight. He said it was skin tight everywhere and struggled getting it on and off. Looks like i'm in a 5XL this year

Looks like the away kit has taken a leaf out of the current fashion colour combo of camo green and grey, that's quite clever thinking from someone as it may attract new fans based on the kit combo.

very true, i'm not the most fashion conscious person in the world (though i'm not graham holroyd scruffy) but weirdly i have started wearing a lot of olive green lately, it may be the better half's influence though.
