I am sure the club have maybe given this a thought but...

...next season, it'll be 40 years since Turnbull's Tornadoes had their finest hour(s).

If the club could release a 'tribute' strip of sorts, would there be a decent take up?

Just curious to get peoples thoughts. Cheers.

Good idea seeing as he passed recently. Would like to see his initials on the collar of the top or on the socks.

Going back to a more traditional top might be a good idea, particularly as this season's is a bit different. It's sold well though!

Great shout. Reckon it would be a good seller, but more importantly I reckon it would look the dug's baws!:thumbsup:

Like the idea of having the initials on the collar.:agree:

I'd love to see a retro 1972/73 strip next year. If fact I'd love to see us playing in jerseys like that forever - Hibs play in green tops, white sleeves and white, preferably rounded collar. To me that simple combination oozes class, tradition and originality so there's no need to ever change from that. I know that will never happen but nowt wrong with dreaming!

I also dream of a Hibs team next year as good as Turnbulls Tornado's and I've just remembered it's time to take my tablets.....

We should have a little tribute in between the badge and the sponsor on the chest.

Agreed Matty. The TT strip was magical and I reckon would be a big seller but persuading the manufacturers might be difficult :agree:

I'll see what the response is like here in the next 7-10 days and if it is decent, I'll see if I can contact someone at the club to see how possible it'd be.

Come on folks, add your thoughts!

Why should have this as our home kit for next season. No Badge, No Sponsor. Just plain green and white. :aok:

I would love a proper retro shirt sadly with Hibs not getting a custom design I worry that it would be a rehash of the coventry shirt. You don't want to do this half arsed as the results could be awesome rangers and England have got it very right in the past (last season rangers) but look at hearts effort this year decent shirt probably the best a hearts fan could hope for(given its maroon) wrecked by a stupid sponsor

Would the fans go for this "proper" green I know a lot of the older guys would love to see us play in this shade I would too but people my age and younger might not see that as Hibs green, I seem to recall the fuss about the darker green on the current shirt and it not being "hibs green"

It's one of the things I plan to ask. I also need to get over the rest of the supporters websites, asked on 2 (the 2 .net's) but still need to ask on the Bounce and I believe there is a 4th site that I am unaware of - what is it?!

One shade of green, no white slanted strip of white!.. Long all white sleeves.
White shorts. Green socks, white turnovers. End of.

Ditto.

Would love to see a retro tribute to the Tornadoes brought back. A class strip so why ever change it?

Let them tinker with the away top but leave the home top alone.

We'd have to have a badge and sponsor, but something like this with TT initials somewhere (probably back of the collar?) would do me.

Great idea, would definitely buy that if done well.

Yep.


The proper green.

Sales would increase 10-fold overnight.

Why not!

Amen to that.

I might even queue at midnight to buy it! :wink:

Brilliant mate. How about the the front of the collar but offset (similiar to the positioning of the nike and underarmour logo's on compression tops)? p.s. Tried to quickly use a white outlined badge but never had time to make it darker.

something just like the 2001-2002 strip? coincidentally the 30th anniversary of tt's tornadoes.

Different Class and a fantastic idea. I would embroider 7-0 into the left cuff and TT into the right cuff !!

When 2026 comes around can we get Albert Kidd embroidered into the strip !!
