Warrington Wolves have launched the shirt that they will wear when they take on Wigan Warriors in Las Vegas and it is absolutely stunning.
Sam Burgess’ side have been heavily promoting their involvement in rugby league’s Las Vegas takeover, as have all participating teams, but few will launch a shirt quite as nice as Warrington Wolves have.
The club have launched the shirt on pre-order as they release their entire Las Vegas range, many items of which will become instant classics with Wire fans.
Matty Ashton, who recently jetted out to Las Vegas alongside Wigan’s Kruise Leeming to take in the sights and events including the Grand Prix and an NFL game, has modelled the kit which is predominantly white but incorporates the classic primrose and blue.
With the game being held stateside, there is of course the American flag fading in across the shoulder and chest with the primrose and blue chevrons placed on the abdomen.

Wigan Warriors will be the designated home side for the game against Warrington Wolves in March when the sides contest Round Three of Super League in Allegient Stadium.
The two Super League sides will kick off a festival of rugby league with four games held on one day, culminating in Penrith Panthers facing off against Cronulla Sharks.
That final game will take place at 4:30 am in the UK but Warrington and Wigan do battle at 9:30 pm ensuring Super League fans get a prime slot.
They’ll be able to take in the impressive Warrington home shirt which a club statement describes as: “predominantly white with opaque tones of the US flag’s stars and stripes across the top and shoulders.
“The bottom half of the shirt contains two primrose and blue chevrons. The collar and sleeves also contain primrose and blue trims.
“There’s a makeover for the club badge also, with the US flag behind the wolf in a holographic look.”
The full Las Vegas range also features jackets and warm-up gear but the shirt will be the instant classic among the fans.
After the club shared the shirt on social media, fans quickly reacted with @adamjohnberry stating: “Take my money now.”
@SamJ243 said: “That’s one of the best kits we’ve had in years,” whilst @FletcherEnder simply said: “OMG!!”
