New Kit 2015 O'Neills : Tue Oct 21, 2014 12:44 pm  

I see someone posted on the VT that we're going with O'Neills kits from next season. If you look on their website a lot of them are utter horror shows. I've really not been a fan of any of their Widnes kits and all have been 'vee' related.

IMO we should go retro and get the Meninga kits.

Whoever makes it and whatever the design, it must have stars on to show we're the champs. What are we on now? Six?

Agree, I have an awful feeling we're going to get a couple of absolute shockers from O'Neills this season.

Can't be any worse than the deep thin vee we had a couple of years back, sponsored by Frontline Bathrooms!!

You wonder how hard it can be to get a white shirt with a red vee wrong, but Puma/ISC etc have tried over the years!

Mind you, they are on a loser either way - make it modern and people will hate it, or go basic and traditional and folk will say they've made no effort!

I think ISC have done a decent job. Boring perhaps but solid and impactful on the eye.

We have had some shockers, the thin Vee one as mentioned, but also the Stag one and Mizuno ones.

It's another decision that McManus should really be running past me before signing off. Perhaps as an olive branch, they could let the two forums (Redvee and The Entertainers) vote on the top 5 designs?

It's just Widnes's kit with different colours and logos. It's boring and rubbish.

Thats what you get with having a white shirt with a redvee not much you can do apart from make the redvee smaller or bigger

I'd agree to make the away top the same as when Meninga was here

We should go for Kappa well good brand from the 80's.

There's talk on the pies' board that lots of teams are going with some outfit called Errea next year. Anybody heard of them?
