| Quote Remarkable_Rhinos="Remarkable_Rhinos"The mistake they've made is putting "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" in the public domain. If you're designing a kit to make you look more fearsome, you can't then tell everybody that's what you've done?! That just makes no sense at all. If anything, it will have the opposite effect. Lets say somebody has worked especially hard in the off season and bulked up a bit, instead of having the new intimating effect you want, the other team is just going to think it's your new pretty shirt doing it.
You can't wear those pants that hold you in to look good for a party, then spend the whole party telling people you're wearing them. That's just ridiculous.
And of top of all that, surely somebody must've realised that "shaded cherry-to-white" would equal pink??? SURELY that crossed somebody's mind at some point???
I also think they've missed a trick not putting the Champions patch on the sleeve. It is hand on heart thoroughly deserved, and you should be wearing it with pride (Or at lease as much pride as you can in a waist shrinking pink shirt).'"
well said that man

| Right, as a non wigan supporter my opinion probably doesn't mean anything but … As a designer and someone who has worked in marketing for many years and worked with some pretty big brands, I will say this shirt is ridiculous, heres why. Your team in RL circles is massive, the name Wigan RL is probably one of the most recognisable names in RL, as are the colours your team play in. Why on earth when you have just won a championship and you get to play a WCC would your club decide to change one of the most famous and memorable aspects of your club - the team colours! if there was any time to release a kit that resembled the kit that your ultra successful team of the 80's wore it was now, horrendous piece of design, but above all, an horrendous waste of a marketing opportunity,. Imagine you all remembering the great 80's wigan team and then seeing what could be another great wigan team in similar colours.
Along with Bradfords effort, I actually find it offending that a professional designer has produced this.

| P.S I think this year would have been a good year to drop the Warriors moniker.

Couldn't agree more.
This really REALLY isn't "Anti-Wigan", I love the way you played last year. Top respect.
I just think the powers that be have really coc[ik[/ied up here. Shirt revenue would've been up anyway the year after a win. All they had to do was make something even remotely sell-able, cherry & white hoops, Champions patch, and it would've flown off the shelves.
And the WCC... on the World Stage. Think of the pictures of you holding the trophy up dressed in that?! Some idiot somewhere has ruined the history books.
Whoever approved that particular kit, for this particular post championship winning year, is a silly, silly, silly man.

Agree 100% and if anyone doubted your credentials as a designer, they should look at Southstander.com's banner... designed expertly... by you!
Guys, it is pink and not cherry & white I am afraid to say!

| Let's hope the away kits decent, otherwise the clubs just lost thousands in revenue.

We figured that as you pinched the hoops off us, you might do likewise if we bring out a sheite shirt.
