Wasps are celebrating their 150th anniversary and have released a special kit for this season and it is a pretty decent affair.
New kits inevitably get compared to those that went before. So let's take a trip down sartorial memory lane.
5. 2002-2003
The whole kit from collar to toe just works. It also delivered their first Premiership title after Wasps smashed Gloucester 39-2 in the final at Twickenham. This good-looking kit was really the start of Canterbury knocking it out the park for the men in black and gold year in, year out.
4. 2017 - 2018
Considering the tarmac looking shirt that came before (2016/17), the 150th-anniversary jersey is very clean cut. Will Wasps have special memories of the new shirt? We will find out. It's certainly the best of their Under Armour jerseys.
3. 2009-2010
This was a season which promised much for Wasps but ended disappointingly, missing out on the play-offs on the final day of the season. The same can't be said about the shirt as it looked great. This was a fundamentally simple design with just enough panache to set it apart

Not quite our favourite - but not far off. Leicester made it to the Premiership final yet again, but much as they had done when they won three straight titles between 2003 and 2005, Wasps produced the goods on the big occasion to send Lawrence Dallaglio into retirement with a 26-16 victory.

Simply iconic. It's hard to imagine it will ever get better for Wasps than the day they beat domestic rivals Leicester Tigers 25-9 in the Heineken Cup to become European champions for the second time.
The Canterbury shirt was also looking good. The badge was traditional and perfect, the collar looked timeless and the graphics were modern without being overstated. Some fans might want more yellow, but we think it was perfect!
