New Wasps Kit

Post by chipnchase »

So whilst we've all been split over the new Kooga attempt at a Tigers kit, our new friends down the M69 have just released this....

I feel like we're being left behind!

Yes - I saw this earlier on Twitter. A simple but effective kit. Whilst our new kits look OK, I, like many on here, would have prefered a red, green and white hoop design, with solid colour hoops, as our home kit and mainly white with red and green contrasting collar, cuffs etc for the away/alternate.

Wasps have changed the design but kept it traditional and simple. They will sell loads.

That said, as long as we win, the kit is secondary

Just to balance things out a bit, they're God awful, all of them. Worse than the our green/red Tiger stripes with the bib, which I didn't think could be possible.

If this means we're being left behind all I can say is 'thank god'.

Ok, it's always a matter of taste but I think this is much more rugby league than union.

It's a million miles from what most posters seem to want which is red, white and green hoops in one for or another. As for innovation, surely the 'shadow' effect is very original compared to the insects shirt. :smt023

Quite like Under Armour, but I hate that cross thing over the chest.

I love how one eyed Tigers fans can be. Yes that wouldn't work as a Tigers kit but it is standout in the Prem.

The new Tigers kit are terrible and look cheap, some may like cheap personally I think for a club that claims to be the 'Manchester United of Rugby' going with a brand like Kooga is a step backwards. Canterbury never got the designs right but its the club that decides, the quality and technology was top notch.

One eyed?! That's a bit harsh. Just because you think the Wasps shirt is nice, it doesn't mean everyone agrees with you. Others can dislike the shirt just as much as you like it. I don't think it's too bad, however I think if they removed the thick vertical line and left the horizontal line and the gold under the arm it would be a really nice shirt.

Lol even wasps and other fans are mixed about wasps kit.

Just because you want to go to bed with it doesn't mean others will. ;)
