Stoop Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Gave it a 7 -1 point for blue socks instead of black -1 for the wrong badge -1 for the yellow writing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ka58 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I can’t tell the difference between this one and the last striped one really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.. Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Strong 8, I'd definitely consider buying it if was 100% cotton, way too hot living in Spain to wear any polyester! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concrete Owl Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 9 from me. Been Nike or another well known brand would have got a 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat-Owl Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Love the socks, not too fond of the sleeves & the collar is a bit meh, a decent 7, a step in the right direction but room for improvement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stokey Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 9/10 Would be a ten if stripes on back and blue and white hooped socks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Past Member Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Six; it's a pretty poor Wednesday kit, but at least it's a Wednesday kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Grez Bez Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 2 hours ago, Bouncing Owl said: 7/10. We have some level of stripes, it’s the right colour blue and we have black shorts. Negatives are that there are no stripes on the back or sleeves, white stripes are narrow on the front and we have a large white stripe on the side and the collar doesn’t look great. Its a step in the right direction and we will look like a Wednesday team next season. Exactly this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 To say im not a huge stripes fan anyway - I am pleasantly surprised and gave it a 9! Like the blue / black / gold - each item is the right colour. Nothings overly fussy - in fact from a design point of view it all balances very well, I like the plain blue arms but would have think it would have been sensible to have the stripes on the back as well. If it had that and had been Nike / Puma / Adidas - I may even have stretched to a 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woozie Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) 7 Needs stripes on the back and sleeves Collar needs sorting Badge should be the same shade as the blue stripes Not really bothered about the socks but they could do with a more minimalist logo. Maybe just the "8" instead of "Elev8". The perfect kit: Simple crew neck collar Stripes from the 15/16 season but with the colours reversed (so a blue centre stripe instead of white) Black shorts Hooped socks from the 17/18 season Gold sponsor from this kit (preferably no sponsor) Badge the same shade as the blue stripes Did I miss anything?

ReginaldD Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I'm giving it a 9 now. I like the strips, also like the solid blue on the back (looks better for names/numbers). To be really picky given I'm rating the whole kit I'd prefer the socks didn't have elev8 on the front. Would look nicer with SWFC. May change my mind and give the kit a 10 when worn by my son tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm delighted overall. Considering the abominations of the recent past its a monumental step in the right direction. This ^ I think that's a fair assessment. It is our best home kit in quite a while. It's not perfect because of the back and the collar but the stripes are back and the black trim and shorts look class. For me it's around a 8 or 7 out of 10, as I think it's one of our nicest home kits since being in the top flight. It reminds me of some of our kits we had in the late 90s and early 90s, which is a good thing for me as I started supporting Wednesday in the late 80s/early 90s and it as the recognisable look of a Wednesday kit from my younger years.

Salmonbones Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I gave it a 1. I think it is awesome. I love it. Nothing beats it in the last 10 years. Still, I gave it a 1. Just to be an arse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethel The Tree Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 3 hours ago, mozzy85 said: 7 for me. Wish the stripes were down the back and sleeves. Plus a proper collar. That would make it a 10. ^ This Also wondered why the shorts looked more like navy blue on most of those pics ... but the description says 'black' so maybe it's just down to photo quality, lighting etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
