So presumably if I go ahead and buy this shirt, I'm going to get lynched by 95% of the posters on this board?

The new shirt is s*it, anyone who is buying it is doing so out of blind loyalty, this will be the 2nd season on the run not having a shirt, and I've had one every year since '98.

The champions range is a good choice of stuff, but looks cheap and the SL logo is the wrong colour.

I really hope the training range and the clubs own leisure range for 2011 are an improvement on whats on sale so far!

I agree about the Kooga champions range. I was lucky enough to get one of the black "champions" T-shirts (made by "Starworld" - better quality, yet cheaper) before they ran out and the Kooga range came in.

A shirt is as good as a name, it's part of the club and it's traditions.
If pemps designs had been the 2011 shirt i'd stick my neck out and say it would have probably been the biggest selling shirt the'y have sold for 2 reasons
1) It shouts 'Wigan', it's simple and traditional
2) It's the year after winning the league, some of the glories would have come out the woodwork and want to be associated with the club again.

Correctamundo.

However I have no issues with anyone liking the shirt or purchasing one, just not for me (and quite a few others i'm afraid).

I like the shirt. Actually I love it. At heart I'm a traditionalist, but I happen to like it a lot. And as an added bonus, when I wear it around and about I won't be mistaken for a Gloucester fan.

So this Lactating Black and White Otter dressed in a Wigan shirt delivered in a DHL box to 'The Gables' isn't yours then ?

According to some people that had seen the shirt in the shop its actually worse when you see it for real.

Don't think ive witnessed such a negative reaction to a new kit for many years.
