But isn't the Wigan top our home kit from this year only in Cherry and White?

Says on the article that the shirt will be in shops on 16th November, and away shirt of 1st December, does this mean that we should prepare for a back page special in the guardian this week or next?
On the point of retro, what exactly is a 'classic' Wire home shirt? The Wigan shirt in primrose and blue as mentioned above (Which is what you have?) Or something like a white shirt with a single primrose and blue hoop that you see on the old pictures?
Quote "Last years 'supporter' issue shirt was nothing short of a disgrace..... Bensons patches half the size of the shirt, that looked like they had been sewn on with fishing wire by old Doris in the back room.... it was so obviously poor that a stall in the market was advertising a service to remove them..... I have never seen that before on any sporting top..... loads of people walking round with tops on that the logo had been removed from (i bet Bensons loved that).... Also the material on the home shirt was awful...It looked really shabby and old after only a few washes.... the mrs said 'i think its made from the same material that duster cloths are made of'... i think she may have been onto something".
I had one of the "Duster" shirts and it did look shabby after a few washes but I now have a new home shirt which I purchased at Asda of all places in the sale for £25 which was the Australian made version of the same shirt with the collar but it was made in polyester the same material as the away shirt and all the badges ect are incorporated in the print with no sewing on. It is a great shirt and washes well. I wonder if this is what Warrington saw as a sample and either thought it to expensive to buy and make a good profit on or they were conned and thought that is what they were getting ? Either way how come I could buy that in Asda and not in the club shop? Lets hope the new one is a better quality than the previous £5 "Chinese Duster" with the big mark up. As an aside the Leeds home shirt from the same supplier the fans were sporting this year were replicas of the players shirts and Australian made so you got Quality.
