No.

No no no no no.

Sorry. It looks like someone's taken a load of different swatched and concepts and bodged it all together in one shirt.

I'm not a hardcore traditionalist like some seem to be but with 4 colours available I'd expect something much better than this.

I don't mind different and don't want traditional every year (I bought the purple/green/white northern away kit and the 1997 amber kit), but I'm not sure on this one, remove the black vertical lines and it probably looks ok - anyone handy with photoshop to see what it looks like without the black lines? I just hope it looks better when I see it for real. Anyone know when the away kit is revealed btw?

Worst what?

You can't mean the shirt, we've had far worse ones than this, let alone what other clubs might have come up with.

It's no Lee Crooks era Cas shirt, that's for sure.

Jeez, how long have Wigan had their shirts on sale? It must be ages if they're wearing out already, unless they're wearing them for work down the pit!!

I guess they could produce fully badged sweatshirt versions as an option. If you're going to bring out a shirt as a replica though I think it should stay as, well a replica, just as the players wear. Maybe it would impact on prices if they brought out two versions, losing the economies of scale and all that? Maybe, it would sell more and increase profits? It's not as though they aren't going to bring out sweatshirts in lots of differing designs and styles anyway. There I go, decisive as usual.....

I've been to Wigan. They all have to wear the replica shirt all the time, until the armpits rot. It's the law, like eating pies and Uncle Joe's Mint Balls. Even Latics fans wear them over their wendyball shirts so that they don't look conspicuous.

On the same search I think I found my 2012 away shirt; Northern red away shirt A modern version of that would surely sell well wouldn't it??? go on Kooga, you know you want to.
