The home goalkeeper kit for the 2016/17 season is all-black, and the away version is a striking pink number.

Both kits feature the new Money Shop sponsorship logo.

They are on sale at the club shop or online. And 70 per cent of fans who voted in our online poll said they liked the kits.

Steve Plant, who is compiling a book on the history of Wolves' kits, tweeted to say: "Both keeper shirts are smart next season but the black one is something else – 10/10 for the person or persons responsible."

Justin Leadbetter added: "Really loving the black kit, proper smart."

Wolves said of the kits: "Both kits have been designed by our official kit supplier PUMA and feature contrast colour blocking down the sleeves, creating a striking flash of colour.

"The shirts are made from 100 per cent polyester, with a stylised round neck collar and ribbed cuff for improved comfort and fit.

"There are underarm mesh panels to provide advanced movement and ventilation, and a contrast colour hem gives a contemporary look and feel to the kits.

"As with the new home kit supporters will have a choice as to whether they wish us to apply a Money Shop logo onto the junior shirts free of charge.

"All adult shirts come embellished with the new sponsor logo."

The shirts cost £45 for adults and £35 for juniors.

Shorts are £22 and £18 respectively, with the socks £12 and £10.

Wolves unveiled their 2016/17 gold and black home kit, complete with a pinstripe design, last month and sales are said to be positive.

An away kit expected to be lime green and black has yet to be unveiled.

Fans got a sneak preview when a picture was posted on Snapchat by defender Kortney Hause.
