I have to say there are some shockers throughout superleague this year so it won't stand out as bad as it might have done. And at least it's not the Cas, Leeds or Huddersfield shirts which are horrendous.'"

| The proof of the pudding will come in the sales numbers. I hope they are good but i fear they won't be. Time will tell.
With talk of a cotton heritage style shirt appearing in January and a couple of other kits around the front part of the season o think i'll keep my money back until i know what they are like.

| Quote: Khlav Kalash "…. which is why it’s important to produce something most people will want to buy. The virtues of the design can be argued all day long but generally if people don't like something they won’t buy it, that's only going to hurt the club. It’s daft business practice to alienate potential consumers, particularly when you got to sell circa £100k worth of kit.
Still, here’s hoping the cotton shirts due for release after Christmas are more appealing to mop up the supporters who don’t purchase the plastic bag replicas.'"
Given that MC was stuck with the leftovers of a ridiculous deal with Macron, I think he's made the best of a bad situation - and he's been on here to explain that in more detail than he had to; on that basis, regardless of whether I like it or not, I'll buy one and suffer the disdain of the high fashion crowd I normally hang around with, in the hope that next year's offer is more fitting for the cosmopolitan sense of style of the average Wakefield fan.

| Let's face it if you don't like these you don't have to wait long before another design comes along. We currently have at least three different shirts each season.
This is a problem in itself because if a club does not produce populist shirts then we just wait to see what next season brings and keep our money in the bank. The second problem which is not MC's fault is the sizes that the current supplier provides at the larger end.

Fans are very fickle.
Frankly the only crap Trinity shirt is the one you're wearing when you've just seen us thumped and it wouldn't matter if Giorgio Armani had designed it you would want to bin it.
If you're wearing it at Cas and we have just run 50 past them you wouldn't care if the Sir Les Patterson Australian Cultural Attaché to the Court of St James had designed it, it would be the finest garment ever created.

How true. I've lost count of the number of "unlucky" replica shirts I've thrown in the cupboard.
Might give the old Nigel Bell's Testimonial T shirt a try next year at some point.

| My only problem with the replica shirts is that they shrink a little every season, I've got shirts from 2,3,4,5 seasons since, I get one out and they're too tight, God knows what they are made from.

I tell myself that every season as well, contrary to what the scales say.

It's nothing to do with the shirts shrinking......

| Dont know what kit you were looking at dboy ..I went into today.....they are both vile probably the worst in modern kit history...,all the badges are lasered on the main sponsor on the home looks like it will peel off after the first wash....the pathetic little badge that is supposed to represent my home town city is an absolute joke...but hey ho this is modern rugby league ...ill keep my money until we return to Wakefield Trinity and the city badge....on a plus side i got a season ticket.
