Really Like the Home kit not so sure about  the away. I think it could be a bit Marmite

Like both but would have prefered the red blob on the away kit as well.

I think I like both, but, like mike909, I'll reserve final judgement on the away kit until I see it properly.

I’m really happy with both kits, think they’re both sharp and smart.

Also happy with the away kit, feels like a good change from the recent white reverse shirts while staying true to Wasps

Like them both. So much better than last year.

No Dell/EMC2 logo I can see (unless it’s on the back). Have they left us as a sponsor? Would be a shame - EMC2 were with us since 2009 just after Magners as main shirt sponsor I think. Maybe after the Dell merger the sponsorship was never going to be renewed?

I don't dislike the kit, but it feels a little pain.

If it wasn't for the vodaphone logo, it would be incredibly bland below the shoulders.

I think I would have liked a little detailing down the sides

"The performance-enhancing kit incorporates Under Armour’s innovative ArmourGrid™ technology, which makes it near-impossible to grab players, allowing them to slip tackles and break contact."

We should see a massive improvement in tries-scored next season.

The perk of being on holiday this week is I could buy one straight away. The reason I'm on holiday (sorting the house for a new baby) however means I can't afford to!

Always good to have another mini-Wasp to indoctrinate! The Ricoh is very baby-friendly too...

Dell Technologies are listed as a main partner on the club website still so guessing it's below the collar on the back again.

Hoping to be back again after New Year with possibly half season tickets. Got plenty of friends in Wycombe for lifts too (and spare tickets in the meantime).

Have to admit, my conservative tastes and my non six pack figure mean I will pass. I mean I am eleven ish stones, not exactly fat, and yet with modern shirts I feel pretty much like the stay-puft marshmallow man. Should something made of cotton with a collar pop up in similar colours, count me in.

11 stones Mr WestWales? I was last that weight as a 15 year old prop!

With my now "ex prop" figure - a loose black shirt is exactly what the fashion experts suggests....whereas a bright gold fitted shirt, might be "bold"

Elevenish......
Everyone was bigger than me from about teenage years. I think props get away with wearing whatever they want rugby shirt wise, ex props too. Technically it is Dr. Eleven ish stone WwW, but either way I don't think the shirt will do me any favours....

For info, the tops have DS Smith & Dell Technologies on the back. Picked up an away shirt today, proper one despite the non athletic physique, as I usually get the Authentic shirt, interestingly I think this is the 1st one that actually has a GPS pocket on it.

Even as "big lad" - loose and black is definitely better than hi viz fitted!
