Like them both. I know the home one has strayed off the traditional hoops design but I quite like the change. The away one looks very smart in my opinion. Wonder which one Father Christmas will bring me.

New Kits Launched
Wigan Warriors have unveiled their 2014 home and away kits in front of hundreds of supporters at a packed Launch Event which was held at the Grand Arcade in Wigan Town Centre on Monday evening.
The distinctive home shirt retains the famous Cherry and White hoops but breaks tradition with a design featuring a diagonal mix of narrow alternating hoops. Wigan will wear the shirt primarily with white shorts and white socks with a cherry trim during their Super League and Challenge Cup defence in 2014.
The new away shirt is Royal Purple with thin white hoops and navy trim. This will be worn with navy shorts and navy socks which include a purple trim.
The shirts are designed and produced by Australian kit manufacturers ISC and will feature new Main Club Partner, Houses For Homes, across the chest. Magners Irish Cider and Ainscough Crane Hire Ltd continue as sleeve sponsors while Caliper Engineering and new sponsor Light Distribution are prominent on the upper back. The shorts feature both Maximuscle and Multipave logos.
Speaking about the kits, Warriors Marketing Director Simon Collinson said;
"We are thrilled that both designs provide an exciting new look but retain our core elements of Cherry and White hoops. The home shirt is a contemporary design in line with the Club's aim to vary the traditional shirt every three years, whilst we have continued with a purple theme for the away kit which last season proved to be one of our most popular ever. We think both shirts will prove very popular with our loyal supporters in what promises to be another exciting campaign under Shaun Wane."
Both the home and away shirts are now on sale from the Warriors World Store, by calling the Merchandise Hotline on 01942 239655 and online from midnight at www.wiganwarriors.com. Adult shirts are available in sizes from Extra Small to 7XL and ladies shirts in sizes 8 to 18, priced at £47. Junior shirts are available from 6-16 years priced at £35 while toddlers kits from 0-4 years are just £28.

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

The background pattern on this site will need to be changed for next season now.
Footballers spend 90 minutes pretending they're injured. Rugby League players spend 80 minutes pretending they're not.

Re: 2014 Kit
New home shirt is awful and not Wigan at all. Is it even cherry??
May buy away shirt but definitely not the home one.
Disappointing.

Anyone who buys the home shirt must have more money than sense as it is awful.

Re: 2014 Kit
Really like them both, think the designers have done a great job. Slightly prefer the away one only because I think the sponsor/logo looks better on the darker top.
Out of interest, how many people bought the home top last season AND the season before? Reason I ask is that I bought the 2012 top but the 2013 top was so similar I decided its wasn't worth shelling out £40 for it so kept with the old one.
Now I love the traditional cherry and white hoops but there is only so much you can do with them and if the club want to make some money selling tops then they need to change every now and again. Correct me if im wrong but I think the last 'non tradtional' top was our best seller in recent times (pink one). I will now, more than likely buy the tradional cherry and white hooped home shirt of 2015.
Wouldn't surprise me if most of the people knocking the new kits haven't bought one since the Norweb 1989 top

Re: 2014 Kit
