2016/17 Kits

I agree, the bit where it says 'Wasps' completely ruins it.

Me neither, it's pretty poor. It is growing on me though, but still doesn't compare to last season's (Which I really liked). I also don't see why they continue to waste their away kit. It's their chance to do something creative and different (See Harlequins) yet they just make it the same but white instead of black. Poor IMO.

Wasps new kit

I don't like it TBH.

A little disappointed, was hoping for classic hoops. Wasps 2015 Kit had a man bra as the pattern, this year we have upgraded from a bra to wearing stripey braces.

How hard is it to do what Canterbury did back when Wasps were a big player?

Home kit is ok...away one...not so much.

i was about to say i havent seen a jersey made by "SW comms" before...

I understand sponsors are necessary but do they need the little one when they're the major sponsor too?

I would guess that either that they were unable to find anyone willing to pay what they considered a fair price for the spot or that Tony Rowe is on an ego trip. Slightly outside the scope of this thread, but particularly if my first guess is correct (not that we'll ever find out), I wonder how true the boast that Chiefs have built a sustainable rugby business is. I.E. if Tony Rowe and SW Telecoms ceased to exist tomorrow, would they be able to replace the lost sponsorship income and carry on unaffected.

Either way, at least it's only their European kit, maybe their kit man could be persuaded to leave it in an airport somewhere in France!

Big + small Land Rover logo, like Exter's... Don't like it too much

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

The new Saracens kit. Many are saying it's uninspired and boring, I actually like it. A lot. The away one may be my favourite kit that's been released so far. I'm a fan of the subtlety I guess.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

It's a bit like Toulouse's kit TBh.

 

[Bee]

My local club is equipped with BLK as well, they are really awful and you have to go up at least 2-3 sizes to have a fitting jersey...

Looking at all these so far have to say their away kits in particular are probably the worst of the lot as well.

Still no idea what's going on at Bristol, we have a terrible history for shirts + merchandise. August is all we know.

LOVE the new Leicester home kit . Never been a fan of fluorescent kits though .... Our away one and Sale's away kit from last year were terrible

Ps. Who's the guy first down the stairs in the away photo ?

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

Have to admit that Leicester home is a good one, modern yet traditional. Agree with the away, just looks like theyre modelled after Stewards attire
