Seems appropriate that the design looks like something from a Hawkwind light show when the last two Hawkwind albums have been released by Cherry Red Records (and key parts of Hawkwind back-catalogue too).
I really don't like the logo colour being changed and personally am not a fan of the shirt design but I do think it will be a good seller and that many more people will probably like it than agree with me which is the main thing.
I don't think any criticism of the Cherry Red logo on the front is warranted in this era when sponsors are the lifeblood of the club and must take priority even if the logo isn't perhaps the best fit. Adam from CR shouldn't have to explain that to supporters but it's testament to him and the company that he has. welcome on board as main sponsor and thank you for the fantastic support of our club Adam and Cherry Red Records.
Love it. Also, the Cherry Red logo is one we can wear with some pride, don't care how red or otherwise it is on the home kit, best shirt sponsor we've ever had.
Also, I hope Barry Richardson keeps this tradition up. I actually saw this new kit for the first time because the guy next to me at work opened it up on his screen after being sent it by a mate. Neither of them are Wycombe fans.
Thanks for taking the time to comment @Kelmanblues. I’d hoped to avoid a red box on the front of our shirt, but I understand things from your perspective. A little bit of communication, plus not being a payday loans company, goes a long way!
I can live with a bit of red on blue and as others have said, great to have a local, independent business as our main sponsor, especially one run by a fan.
Being sponsored by a payday loans company was hideous.
That kit looks like we're trying to perform some kind of hypnotist act on the opposition!
Nice to hear from the kit guy and all that, but yeah, you do have to agree with @tom, that if he doesn't like it, a lot of our fans certainly won't!
However, you take what you get with sponsors. You only have to look at how soe of the major Premier league teams' kits look with their sponsors to see that.
I'd echo what's been said above, not sure we could find a better sponsor in terms of who they are and what they do. I'm sure the red box* will look fine.
*not the band, though they were signed to Cherry Red.
Think I've got a migraine coming on after seeing those shirts. My eyes, my eyes. Certainly hope it helps to burn the retinas of the opposition strikers as it has mine. Do we get a supply of Ibuprofen with the season tickets?

Compounded (*) by the fact that the owner also owned the club
"Scientific trials proved that the patterned goalie shirt, worn by David De Gea, stopped more shots than a regular plain goalie shirt, worn by Flappy McHowler."
I wonder if the new sponsors have any influence over getting improvements to the awful current sound system. It wouldn't be any kind of advert for them in its current state.
Thought the shirts were being premiered on Saturday?
@Right_in_the_Middle I think it's the new first team shirts which will elicit a howl of horror and derision from the Gasroom that are being unveiled then. In the meantime we have to make do the mesmeric goalie kit...which you can still see when you close your eyes.
Groovy.
Dreadful kit for certain, and I still maintain the "Other" kit that could have been voted for was better. It kept the actual quarters for starters.
But that's been done to death

if we're going to have a shirt sponsor at all then a local independent record label with genuine Wycombe supporters involved is the best we could get
thanks for posting @Kelmanblues - much appreciated

Must admit the colour of the sponsor logo does not bother me. A little bit of red slapped on the blue won't hurt!
He really can't be allowed to wear those red gloves with that pink. Unless it's a further part of Baz's dastardly strategy to upset the strikers.
God lord.
Those are some goalkeeper shirts aren’t they?
I think....I think I really like them.

Brilliant design, brilliant sponsor. We should insist that we only play Cherry Red released records over the tannoy.
Can’t. Stop. Looking. At. The. Shirts.
Guess that’s the idea though isn’t it?
Verco will always be an emotive sponsor and was local too.
Other than 4AD (or Touch & Go) I can't think of a cooler sponsor. Might actually buy a shirt for the first time in almost a decade.

Nothing wrong with a bit of red on the shirt...
That was the worst one ever.... full stop, no arguing
That might just be the worst kit of all time full stop, let alone Wycombe kit
What a disgrace

Their was a strong rumour that Alan Smith had a business tie up with mizuno at the time.
@ChasHarps please don’t go all @marlowchair on us
