As has been pointed out many times... the Nike kits are 'off the shelf'  |

Many moons ago, I had the honour of playing in a friendly game with Offiahs #5 shirt on my back from the previous season. I would think that amateur clubs ask for the shirts at the end of the season. Simmies also had Widnes's red away kit a while back.

it's probably more to do with mike dennett being chairman of thatto, and also partner at hattons law firm, one of widnes' main sponsors!

Before your time then BBBD!
Might be coming up to 20 years. IIRC it was around the time of when John Wood was coaching them.
