Colour is ok, but the pattern is a bit odd.

Is this a slight nod to CCFC in colour and then an attempt to hide it with a sort of camouflage design.

I like it, think I would have preferred white reverse of the home kit but remember Odogwu mentioning the third kit they’re designing will be a white kit inspired by Real Madrid

I can see that being possible.
Those ccfc fans who don't hate Wasps and who attend a couple of games may be more likely to buy a shirt if it's a colour that appeals to them.




Whether it's the right shade of blue is another matter though.
We often argue over shades of gold on our own shirts

Blue seems popular for away shirts. Here's Gloucester:

Looks good.
Still needs a cotton version for me to buy.

I was joking with a friend about this that there's probably a rare form of Blue Wasp that was the inspiration. Turns out there is actually a breed of wasp that is blue!

If it is rare does it live in Coventry?

No but it was first described in 1867.
