New 2011 Home & Away Wigan Shirts (Merged Thread) : Thu Nov 18, 2010 9:13 am  

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.

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.

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.

Just got the cub e-mail:

Wigan have today unveiled their new Home Kit for Engage Super League XVI which will see the Warriors taking to the field to defend their title.

The distinctive new design is a break from tradition and features shaded cherry-to-white irregular hoops. It also incorporates white flashes over the chest and hips which are designed to accentuate the shoulders and shrink the waist making the Warriors look even bigger and more fearsome than before.

The KooGa shirt, which will display the logo of new Main Sponsor Applicado-FS across the chest, will be worn with cherry red shorts and cherry red socks both with white flashes.

Commenting, Wigan Warriors Head Coach Michael Maguire said:

"We are really pleased with the new design as it reinforces our desire to push the boundaries in everything that we do. The kit is certainly a break from tradition but we hope that it will be a hit with our fans. It is designed to give us another psychological edge in our performance but we also think it looks great and I can't wait to see the thousands of Warriors fans wearing the new kit in the stands during 2011".

The new shirt is now available to pre-order and is expected to be delivered at the beginning of December in good time for Christmas. Pre-orders are available at Warriors World in the Grand Arcade, online at Warriors World Online by [clicking here] and on the Merchandise Hotline: 01942 239655.

Prices are:-

• £42.99 for adult sizes (S-5XL) and women's sizes (8-18)
• £32.99 for junior sizes (XSB - Youth) and junior kit (shirt, shorts and socks: 2-3 yrs / 4-5 yrs / 6-7 yrs)
