Its awful.
I got slated for critisising the fact it was inevitable mi-fit wouldnt produce a good kit, and it seems im right.
Looks the same cheap material as vandanel used. And it doesnt look like a Wigan kit.

Can’t see the link to the club site from behind my firewall and therefore obviously can’t see the design, but I am pretty impressed that you can tell the quality of the material from a picture.[/quote]
I know, but it does look very similar to that shiny shi* they used last season. It really does look god-awful, Griff.

It looks amateur, seems it’s been designed by the same person who designed the initial vandanel kit for this coming season before they went bust so its probably just someone within the club.
Was planning on buying it, absolutely no chance now.
20 July 2010 at 3:47 pm #40439Just seen it.
It’s a blue and white strip with a Wigan badge on it. Looks very much like a Wigan kit to me.
Get over it. Some if you need proper things in life to worry about.
20 July 2010 at 3:50 pm #40440Looks very much like a Wigan kit to me.Which one? I can’t think of one.

To be fair Griff the picture does give a pretty good indication that its exactly the same material as last years kit. Likewise, when they released pictures of last years kit you could tell that it was made from the same material as that awful patrick kit Latics wore in the 2nd season in the premier league. This one looks the same
As for the design – I don’t particularly mind it from initial glances. Didn’t really wanna see the full stripes go but its alright
I do agree that the club should start trying to involve fans in the choice of kit in a “here are 4 kits vote for your favourite” kind of way but that still wouldn’t guarantee a choice everyone would be happy with coz people have different tastes – just coz a song is #1 in the charts it doesn’t mean its the best song around does it?
20 July 2010 at 3:54 pm #40442love how the stripe carries on onto the shorts …
we play in one white sock and one blue sock to Continue this effect

I guess you could say it looks quite like the one from 1968-1970!!

The initial visuals of the kit with Vandanels logos on it don’t actually look too bad, compared to how bad its turned out, so even if we got to chose a kit it wouldnt necessarily turn out to be good.

clutching at straws a bit there… ;)
20 July 2010 at 4:00 pm #40447Shrewsbury Town, Carlisle United, etc spring to mind.
NOT Wigan Athletic.
BIG mistake, taking our stripes off us.
Took us years to get them back, and at the whim of some t*t, they are gone again.
WE WANT OUR STRIPES BACK!!!!!!
20 July 2010 at 4:06 pm #40450Shrewsbury Town, Carlisle United, etc spring to mind.You say that but even Morcambe have a smart Puma kit

:) I don’t particularly want to defend it, no. I honestly can’t get excited about it at all because I never buy them.
If I were to have a concern it would be that the team don’t look stupid in it and I don’t think they will. Grown men who are not actually playing football at the time they are wearing a replica shirt look stupid in them anyway, in my opinion, so I don’t really care about that side of things.
If pushed, I’d have to say I’d prefer the traditional striped effort but this is not a million miles away in my view. As Tyldesley says, you can’t please everyone. Some will like it, some won’t. Personally, I couldn’t care less.

* actually, I don’t, so it could have been :?
20 July 2010 at 4:17 pm #40455I would have rather us stuck with the stripes but we haven’t… oh well…. I think the design is pretty decent but it does look like that crappy material from previous years but I will wait till I see one close up before I criticise it. Mixed thoughts though to be honest.
