As an avid reader of this site, thought it was about time to make another contribution particularly as things are now looking a lot brighter for next season! my wish is that the club would revert back to the famous white strip with red and blue band-obviously modernised to make way for todays various badges etc.
I am tired of seeing the succession of poorly designed shirts (there have been a couple of exceptions) some of which are not even the right colours. This seasons home strip is a classic example-it should have been the away strip.(I appreciate why it is the colour/design that it is but it makes the team look yards slower than the opposition-er that might not be the shirt come to think of it!)
I know these shirts generate revenue but this could be raised by changing the away strip every season. I bet not many people buy both home and away shirts.
Just a thought but 60's strip was instantly recognisable as Wakefield Trinity some of the strips of recent years look like Wakefield Girls High School. just a thought......

i am a big fan of this years home shirt! however i get the the general feeling on here that we need/want the wally lewis era adidas shirt for next year - you listening mr glover???

Odd that one of the least memorable seasons has produced IMO the most memorable kit since the Addidas kit.

This seasons home, would make a great away shirt to go along side "that" White adidas number.
Then stick with it and never ever change.

Are you connected to me today, it's almost like we are friends or something... weird

I'd like to see a kit that's red, white, blue.

I wouldn't think so, how ghastly!!

Still not sure why we dont produce 3 home and 3 away designs and let the fans choose, surely from a marketing side this would be the best thing to do? This years kits are nice fititng but very bland designs. Ive always liked our black away kits especially the atlantic soloutions www.oldrugbyshirts.com/en/teams/ ... s-t20.html

Steady on - I appear to have stepped in to some kind of alternate universe.

This year's shirts were for a specific reason, the last season at Belle Vue, and so I can see why it is as it is.

I agree that the shirts should be an instantly recognisable brand, and the 60's shirt would be the brand for me, with this years shirt as the template for the away shirt. All the other clubs manage minor variations but have new designs, but are always distinctly recognisable. Saints is the best example. We, however, go from garish mess to garish mess.

79 wembley shirt for me if not similar but must be red white and blue white home blue away simple

Home shirt : 60's / Wally Lewis design
Away shirt : 79 cup final design
Classic, recognisable and look great.
Ideally with subtle sponsors adverts on them but subtle and sponsorship don't go well together so I won't expect that.
