£39.99 for a training top like that?

My initial thought when I saw this was that it was supposed to be a playing shirt, the away maybe? With the big space in the middle for a sponsor and the fact that they are charging £39.99 for it. Also with last years away being black and the fact it looks a bit "fancy" for a training top. I'm probably way off the mark here, it was just the first thing I thought when I saw it, that they'd gone with this for the away and then bottled it.

Can we not get Edwards to tell Wigan to do a deal with Canterbury next year and just use Wasps' design but in Cherry and White?

That would look awesome Cherry and White with Cherry sleeves and shoulders.

Them offset hoops look odd over the shoulder tbh

I'm surprised the club haven't put pictures up of the shirt signing (literally by all accounts).

That warm up top is shocking - i don't usually buy replica kits as the training gear is usually smarter and more practical but this is getting silly.

Downunderleisure will see a significant profit increase in 2010/11.

Im not sure whats funnier/scarier, the fact the club signed off the design or the fact is costs £40!!

Seriously, the head of retail might have a neatly organised store and have introduced some excellent "wigan" brand clothing, but if he and IL believe this Kooga stuff is good, they are insane.

Off the back of the GF, its a total farce.

From what i've been told the shop manager doesnt have a say in the kit stuff

I bought the the shirt on the launch day and actually quite like it!
At 1st I thought WTF have they done to it when seeing it on the website

At the end of the day though its a Wigan shirt we will only be wearing for 1 season and I don't exactly plan on wearing it to any other occassion than to go watch the game so I don't really see the major problem with it
