Those previews are exciting me a lot.

As an orange shirt owner , I'm liking the potential of the away strip.

I hope we continue to apply the sponsor's name as letters (white or black) applied directly to the shirt without the introduction of a 'DHL type' colour box which looks like an after thought.

I also hope we continue to limit the amount of advertising on the kit and definitely no wording on backsides :smt009

Amen...

(Potentially a) Good looking pair of kits - even if the latter is a little garish!

As part of these announcements, we will be giving you a teaser of the new home and alternate kits for the 2016/17 season which will be worn for the first time at the Singha Premiership Rugby 7s on Saturday, July 30.

Both kits available to buy in store from the day of our pre-season double header against Nottingham Rugby and Ospreys on August 26.

I for one hope not! They're never a great look for those of us with the larger waist line/chest size!

This just proves that what ever is released someone will not like it
I think it's more that you're never going to please everyone.

While I respect and understand the traditions of the club and also the clamor to return to the traditional colors and pattern I don't mind a bit of breaking from the norm.

Either way, I'll still buy the shirt, but my preference would be for something different.

We shall see what comes up at the end of the month...

If we get a traditional home kit I may well cry...have been waiting years for one I actually want to wear...

Can't believe we have to wait until the end of August for it to be released though....

Traditional is nice, but I did also like the last two that Canterbury did. The plainer green design, and the plain green design with the thin hoops. Both looked very smart.

I will personally hunt down anyway responsible for a return to the horrific bib and squiggly lines monstrosity that preceded them, however.

I hope you had the foresight to give them very short names!

Whilst the indications are that the home shirt will be good, the same logic would hint that the away shirt will be something like the pikki shown in the STIHL to extend Tigers partnership page - pretty billious.

I think the preview of the away shirt tells us less than the preview of the home shirt.

I assume Stihl will only be a fairly small logo so that shot is a fairly small section of the shirt. Obviously if you don't like yellow or orange your probably not going to be that enthusiastic about the shirt though.

I wish we could get back to the white away shirt and the black European shirts that we had in 2012/13, they were definitely class apparel.
