remember them getting cleaned up at Anfield in the green and white on 8/4/89….one week prior to the tragedy at Hillsboro.No idea why they wore the strip there was no colour clash

I bought my first Wednesday Shirts home and away in 1984-85 season. For years after I bought them all. Except for the White with Black pinstripes worn against Newcaste in 1993-94 season. I remember phoning the club shop, and was told Puma had promised no kit changes for replica’s for 2 years, yet the yellow with purple pinstripes was available the following summer. There are various kits that I never got that were available commercially. The navy blue from 2002-03 season. The white kit from 2008-09 and the Yellow kit from 2009-10. I am not happy that you can only get the shirts at the club shop only. I live in Gillingham in Kent, so I am not in a position to just go to the club shop. Yes, mail order is available, but not ideal should I need to try the shirt on. I only just got hold of this season’s away Grey shirt, after being told a month into the season, that they not getting anymore.

i was looking thru them, and i spotted the ecru away strip. That is incorrect. The blue shorts was the normal shorts, and the ecru was the change strip.

can i just say shakey
i worked for sheffield wednesday during the 2000-2001 season (2000-2005 tenure as a training ground security guard) and i saw the green 4th kit once and assumed it was for the goal keepers (an old concept for sutch a young lad as i was 16 then and fresh out of school) but i am pretty sure i helped to load the yellows on the coach for the gillingham game and not the green but i could be getting my years muddled up but i do have some pics of us playing in the yellow against gillingham qpr and coventry so im pretty certain i am right
and yes we do love our shirts but we do have some classics (tango orange all the way for me)
