was going to post this point a few days ago. Put 2 away shirts in wash for 1st time, mine and my boys. As instructed, inside out, 30 degrees. No other items in wash. Sponsors logo cracked on both and both 'white' areas inside collars and where buttons are on both shirts now pink. Spoke to club, they say the shirts have to be sent away to manufacturer. They also will not have most sizes (especially kids) in stock until late january.

If the club will let me swap the away one for one of them then im more than happy.

It might not be their fault but it is their responsibility. People aren't buying the shirts because of the ISC logo, they're buying them because of the Warrington badge.

If ISC have provided a poor quality product then it's down to the club to get them to fix it, just as they did with KIT@ in 2004.

As I said, I don't normally buy them but I did really like this away shirt so I was tempted. However, as they seem to have bizarrely released a replica away shirt that is not actually the same design as the one the players will be wearing - own goal number one - this thread also suggests the one they have released is of inferior quality to that which you should be able to take for granted for £45 - own goal number two.

I imagine the club rely on merchandise as one it's five main sources of revenue along with gate receipts, TV money, sponsorship and hospitality. Replica shirts are almost certainly the biggest selling and highest profit generating items of merchandise so if the people who normally buy them no matter what follow my lead after hearing these reports, or return the ones they've bought already due the the poor quality of them, the club will lose a lot of money.

The club surely see and approve the items before they are mass produced and put on sale (and if not, why not?) so they've got no excuses.

No doubt with Canterbury going pop the club jumped at the first provider who could supply at short notice. We now know the result when jumping feet first!

If in 10 month's time Adrian Morley holds aloft the SL Trophy for Warrington, I really don't care whether the kit has been made by ISC, adidas, Bukta or Primark. I have an away shirt bought me for Christmas, it's been washed as per the label & is currently fine, if anything goes wrong I may take it back to the shop it was bought from or I may just continue to wear it showing I support the Wire - I certainly won't foresee it bringing about the demise of Warrington RLFC though...

Someone bought my son an away shirt from Asda for Christmas. It's a size 10 but is too small and he needs a 12 (despite him being 8 ) If the club aren't going to receive any new kit until the end of January then the chances of Asda receiving any are somewhere between not much to nil (They may be unwilling to swap it anyway as it will be 7 weeks after purchase).

I'm also not impressed that it's not even the same design as the match jersey. Has anyone got a link to the match jersey?
