2014/15 Home Kit

[Lewis77]

Loving the away kit, very South American circa 1970's. Love it.

[hibsforeurope]

If Hibs don't release that top, maybe some enterprising business person on here could start selling them.

It doesn't have the official badge, so I can't see it's breaking copyright

:hmmm:

I'd definitely buy this top if it was made.

Well your fears are real. The reason we have the stick on sponsors is because we have nike.

Probably wouldn't be allowed for commercial reasons but, it would be great if there was a version of the strip available without the sponsor's logo

[SaulGoodman]

If it is one of these horrible peely ones there's probably a good method for just removing them.

Glue and a lot of small pieces of the sticker.

Yeah if it comes off in the wash. In sure there's a way to do it properly, I've seen people do it before.

The official away kit? Or the mock up's from here?

[California-Hibs]

I know it's July that the new kits are being released, but does anyone have an accurate date?

[Bristolhibby]

I know it's July that the new kits are being released, but does anyone have an accurate date?

It is quite pathetic isnt it? Its not difficult to have a date whereby the suppliers deliver the strips, and a date that they send in the pre production runs.

Hibs need to communicate this with us.

J

[Hibs History]

I know it's July that the new kits are being released, but does anyone have an accurate date?

I heard its the 9th of July but nothing official.

[Scònaldò]

[Renfrew_Hibby]

Was shopping at Braehead today (it where I live) and there was a guy wandering about in the new black Dundee Utd away top. Also St.Mirren fans here have been out and about in there new home top for 4 weeks now. Of course all the brain dead old firmers are out in their red union jack tops or there dark green tartan numbers and I also believe the hearts home top has been out for a while.
The schools are breaking up and this weekend is the busiest of the year at our airports as everyone jets off on holiday...

We really has missed a trick here... again.

[MyJo]

While its annoying to have to wait for the new strip I'd rather we had a manager in place and money coming into the club via the sponsorships that have been organised etc ahead of a new strip launch.

priorities.

I wonder if relegation held this up. We usually launch in mid June. Maybe marathonbet brought us back to the table to renegotiate, hence the delay

Don't you think a popular shirt released early would add well to a transfer pot for any manager?

Take away 3/4 weeks of families buying the new kit prior to going on holiday......

[PeterboroHibee]

Maybe Im wrong, but do Nike/JustSport not give us a lump sum outright rather than us generating anything from shirt sales?

A big football club like Hibs SHOULD be able to do both.

Launch a kit and sort out a team.

J

[Bristolhibby]

I presume this didn't help, however Hibs are notorious for late launches.

I was up for my cousins wedding in 2012 and bought the dark green and white Puma shirts (cracking shirts BTW) on the 30th June.

This year is particularly late, considering we have had the sponsor signed up for a while, I'm unsure what the delay is all about.

Missing the school holidays is a mistake.

J

[Bristolhibby]

Oh and while I'm having a moan, how about a sponsors logo that doesn't peel off? It is possible.

No i dont, had they launched a new strip a few weeks ago there would probably have been an outcry from a lot on here about the club trying to squeeze money out of us and talk of boycotting buying strips until Petrie is out or Butcher was sacked etc.

And you only have to look at a thread about the new home kit to see the attitudes towards our strips if it isnt "popular", there are people refusing to buy one because the sponsor could be red FFS

Always thought that the Embroidered Team Badge - Would end up the Same way.. !! :bitchy:

[Sir David Gray]

J

:agree: If the sponsors logo is designed the same way as last year's top then I won't be buying it.

I just threw my top from last season in the bin a couple of weeks ago as it was completely done and looked horrible.

Such a waste of money.

[One Day]

Although I'm 54 and have a sizeable beer-gut, I'd definitely buy this if Hibs were to go for it !!

So would I.

[we are hibs]

Surely we will have a new kit before next Saturdays first game of pre season?

[zlatan]

Surely we will have a new kit before next Saturdays first game of pre season?

Shirts and skins I believe.

[HH81]

Surely we will have a new kit before next Saturdays first game of pre season?

They will use an old kit for pre season games.

[SouthMoroccoStu]

They will use an old kit for pre season games.

Really?

Advertise a sponsor that doesn't pay anymore.

Don't think that would go down well with the new sponsors

[HH81]

Yes really.

[Gus Fring]

Really?

Advertise a sponsor that doesn't pay anymore.

Don't think that would go down well with the new sponsors

We'll probably play in the sponsor less kit used in the u20's matches. FWIW I've heard crabbies will still be working with Hibs in some ways. Just not as the shirt sponsor.

I don't think when the home strip goes on sale makes much of a difference either. It's nearly always sold out by Christmas so if we're selling out we can't really do much more.

[MyJo]

Really?

Advertise a sponsor that doesn't pay anymore.

Don't think that would go down well with the new sponsors

I would assume they would just stick some new sponsors logos on strips like we did the season we used an old yellow away kit as our "3rd" kit for playing celtic when our white away kit clashed or when we played in europe while sponsored by whyte and mckay and changed it to carling because of rules about advertising spirits in the country we were playing.

Either that or they will reveal the strip next week before the game is played, given that the players are all wearing new training gear i'd assume the strip is decided and available to use just not revealed until the mood has improved amongst the support.

I remember being at a pre season game a few years ago, and we were wearing the previous seasons strips, it might have been the season we last got relegated but I can't be sure

[DAVE1875]

Hopefully we don't have a small Marathon Bet logo on the back just under the collar. Looked really stupid when we had the Crabbies logo on the back of the shirt

[sambajustice]

It'll be a template from the 12/13 season.

[Yuillsy]

They will use an old kit for pre season games.

Or they'll show pictures of the new strip in the paper this week and wear that?
Whether it's released to the fans or not is irrelevant surely the club will already have a supply of new Strips and training gear for the players.

[Thecat23]

I wouldn't bet on it. I'm sure they will play in last years gear to keep the strip under wraps.

[.Sean.]

What's the big secret with the tops? Just release them ffs.

[Yuillsy]

I wouldn't bet on it. I'm sure they will play in last years gear to keep the strip under wraps.

Why not release pictures of it this week then? Usually it's released to the press with a date of when the fans can buy it.
I can't ever remember them playing pre-season games in the previous years strip? It is Hibs though and with so much going on at the club recently I'm sure the strip release is the least of their worries.

[PeterboroHibee]

Hopefully we don't have a small Marathon Bet logo on the back just under the collar. Looked really stupid when we had the Crabbies logo on the back of the shirt

I imagine it will. More and more clubs seem to have sponsors on the back of their shirts these days, and given weve apparently received a good deal from Marathon, theyll be looking for maximum return on that. If it generates us more money than Ive no problem with it, but then I dont buy the kits so I could understand it being more of an issue for those who do.


What's the big secret with the tops? Just release them ffs.

I agree. Now that Marathon has been revealed as the sponsor, theres nothing stopping them at least revealing the kit. I have a feeling it will be released tomorrow, but I suppose you never know with Hibs.

[ScottB]

After picking up a Germany top yesterday, the quality and detailing is a million miles from anything we've had in years. Very disappointing really!

[Hibeesmad]

The sooner we release the kits the sooner stubbsy will be given more funds to bring in players

[Billy Whizz]

Maybe we have another sponsor still to be announced, like on the shorts etc. Cant release a strip until this has all been agreed

[21.05.2016]

Ridiculous they haven't been released yet tbh. whats the hold up?! surely we should be wanting to inflate the transfer kitty as much as possible, especially under our current circumstances!

Come on hibs get a move on lol!

Hibs have contracted the shop out to just sports, I don't think it matters how many we sell

[PeterboroHibee]

Hibs have contracted the shop out to just sports, I don't think it matters how many we sell

I was pretty sure that was how it worked. Ive seen other clubs who deal with Just Sports and they receive a lump sum rather than a % of sales, so I assume we are in a similar position.

From that end though its surprising that Just Sports havent pushed through the release, particularly when other clubs (eg Dundee United) have done so.

[Bristolhibby]

agreed

[hibees4life89]

I can see the new kit looking very poor now. Crabbies on the back and a horrible red marathon bet on the front.

[portyhibernian]

Crabbies on the back again, not fussed really if it means more money to play with on the playing side if things. I think by now we've come to accept the kit will be the usual off the shelf Nike teamwear effort like last years.

[marti1875]

Agree with the logo part. If it is red it'll look awful, red on green, not good at all. Hopefully...hopefully they will have done the logo similar to one of the mock-ups done on here earlier that never had it in red.
Unfortunately i guess the a tual top will be the usual template again.

We've had red on the front of the strip before with Whyte and Mackay and it looked smart.

Fwiw we don't even know if there will be red on it so best to wait and see.

[bingo70]

I'm amazed anybody gives the slightest of ****s if there's a bit red on a sponsors logo.

I just can't think of anything that bothers me less.

[HH81]

[tamig]

Whyte and McKay (sp?) had red on their logo on one of the strips.

[tamig]

LD will get future kit releases sorted in the future. The last couple have been pretty late I'm sure and a big opportunity lost for folk who like to wear a kit on holiday.

[BVB Hibs]

Don't really see what the issue is. Although, Dortmund isn't releasing their kit til the end of July and that's the time they tend to do so, so maybe I'm just used to a late kit release?

Won't make much of a difference to Hibs. They'll get a tiny percentage of any income from the strips, if any. The money from the strips will be long in the account. Other than the fact fans want to have the strips out early, the club really doesn't have much prerogative to release the kits any time before the start of the season.

[Aaron]

It will be the same template as Dundee utd's one

If we get this (in green) as our home top I will be happy.

English schools aren't on holiday til about 10 days later so plenty time for the gooners to purchase theirs in time for holiday wear.
Always a good idea to have them ready for holidays, spreading the word and all that, plus extra sales revenue.
LD has already commented on wanting to see more kids wearing the shirt. Hope this is something that will be dealt with for next year.
Really sick of Hibs always at the 'coo's tail' in recent years.
Always used to be proud of the fact that we were quite innovative as a club and led the way in a number of fields.
Nowadays we seem to have little imagination, are slow of the mark, copy others and display little attention to detail.
Let's be forward thinking leaders again.

[HH81]

That will be the home shirt

[The_Todd]

That doesn't look even vaguely like a real shirt. Nice try.

[hibsfan]

Hate to say it, but that is a playing kit template - the training templates for next season are quite different

[dp00]

Certainly looks like it's at hibs with the green in background

[Mon Dieu4]

If that is the top then it is easily the worst home top I've ever seen

[BVB Hibs]

I actually quite like that, probably consider buying it if it does end up being our strip. Marathon bet logo isn't anywhere near as bad as I'd have imagined either. Seems it's just me though.

Absolutely howfin top. Everything about Hibs right now is utter pish.

[lord bunberry]

Sadly I've just been told by one of the players they think that's the home top.

That truly is a shocker!!!

[sambajustice]

Think I'll probably stop supporting hibs if that is the top!!

Its just a tshirt!!!

You can probably buy them without any logo or badge for about 12.99!

Petrie must be a jambo or something! As if we weren't enough of a laughing stock!!

Deary me!

On closer inspection of nike teamwear looks we've been given the cheapest kit out there :faf:

[hibees4life89]

2 year deal with the option of a 1 year extension I believe.

[Bronson]

It looks more like a training top. Please be a training top... or even better a wind up :pray:

Bad enough using the template socks Dundee United wore 2 seasons ago!

May be both getting launched simultaneously.

It's not as if we need a third shirt as nobody plays in Green in the Championship except us.

Looks legit to me, certainly doesn't look photoshopped.

Hard to tell if training or an actual kit as there is a lot of them on racks by the look of things. Wouldn't mind if it was an away but I would have preferred them Marathon logo to have had it's colour changed.

Hopefully is a match day warm up shirt though as stated.

[hibsfan]

Only hope is down to the fact we surely wouldn't use the same template twice in a row... Also - marathon logo on new fulham shirt is different to this one..

[green glory]

No white sleeves ergo NOT our home top. It really is that simple.

Calm down folks. :-)

Whether it's home/away/training it is absolutely rotten. Hibs should let the fans pick the templates if that's the crap were are ending up with. Looks cheap and nasty.

[Onceinawhile]

26 miles?

A marathon is 26.2 miles. It was 26 miles but it was extended for the original London Olympics so that the finish was in line with the royal box.

also that top is horrid. Presume it's training.

[Hibernia Na Eir]

Calm your tits lads, I've been told that's a match day warm up shirt.

it's still gonna cost big bucks and it's the usual utter tripe quality.

[Bristolhibby]

Thats definitely the strip!

Bottle green.

All Green! Nae White!

Look at early 1900's kits... 1914...

"Their memory marches on..." is what the writing on the shoulder says...

You are joking?!?

[sambajustice]

You are joking?!?

Absolutely 100% not joking.

Thats what the shoulder writing is, i'm assuming its a reference to WW1. Looked at Hibs historical kits and the early 1900's was all green...


Its all starting to make sense!

I was dead against the white sleeves being dropped but If that's the case and it's to tie in with a memorial for the war then I've absolutely no qualms with veering from tradition for a year. Infact I think it's a tremendous gesture.

[Green&White]

Could it possibly be the away one? There is no other team that wear green in our league this season so might be going two different greens home and away? #clutchingatstraws

[lord bunberry]

I wonder if anyone from the club is looking in to see the response to the new kit

[GoldenEagle]

Still makes it a horrendous top though, white sleeves or no white sleeves.

[The goalie]

the 1914 strip had white shorts.
Indeed we had white shorts until 1929, so not only horrid but historically inaccurate! (If it has green shorts)

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Wont be buying that, will go for the away top, if it's nicer.

We've had a few honking kits recently, last seasons and that awful two tone one from a couple years back.

I thought we could never get any worse than that yellow monstrosity a few years ago but we've managed it.

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Got a feeling this may well be a training top....

[lord bunberry]

I thought we could never get any worse than that yellow monstrosity a few years ago but we've managed it.

I'm sure the yellow strip was when we were last relegated, maybe they go a bit mad when we go down.

[madhatter]

It will be the strip and in an attempt to respect those back in 1914, I will buy the strip and support the club I love.

Don't particularly like it or dislike it. I do like the bottle green colour but it would have been nice to have had some white on it especially with the MarathonBet bit anyway...

Above all else, I will like the strip more should we get decent players to wear it and we win games. I will hate the strip should we lose and suffer embarrassment.

With this and ST prices not budging, I really do hope that we will have sufficient numbers sticking with the club - I know it is/will be difficult as per usual!

[Hiber-nation]

Why would they when they can buy a Shan pub team strip fir about £8 and sell it for £40 odds?

[West hamBERNIAN]

I think it would be alright without the red and light green badge. Probably look better on too.

[ian cruise]

I'm sure the yellow strip was when we were last relegated, maybe they go a bit mad when we go down.

We've had at least two yellow ones since then. There was the sunshine on leith strip and the yellow away the year we put both the bigot bros put the cup only to lose to liv (I'm sure that was yellow away). Was it not purple away the year we went down?

[Slim Shady]

A marathon is 26.2 miles. It was 26 miles but it was extended for the original London Olympics so that the finish was in line with the royal box.

also that top is horrid. Presume it's training.

Off topic - but your wrong my friend :tsk tsk:

A 'proper' marathon is always 26.2 miles, thus being the exact distance a soldier ran from Marathon to Athens to advise the Persians had been defeated before duly collapsing and dying.

The Olympic (or any marathon) can not be increased by more that 0.1% otherwise it will nullify the Official Record. It also can not be less than 26.2 Miles.

:agree:

And althought the tops is terrible, I will still be forking out for my two lads to wear with pride :flag:

[SaulGoodman]

Can't properly post photos on my phone but this was on twitter, Booths top seems the same colour so id imagine that the photo posted really is the home top.

Not necessarily, all the kit we will be wearing will have marathon logo branding on them, training gear included.

[sambajustice]

You dont get warm up gear with long sleeves!

[Billychaotic182]

To me that logo looks like it's going to have the same problems as the crabbies logo and peal off after a few washed. Looks like a cheap Nike Tshirt the a hibs badge on it. Hope it is just a pre match top. Might look better in person like the new Scotland away top did

[Johnny_Leith]

Isn't that last seasons training top with a marathon bet logo stuck on the front? Looks like a wind up to me, certainly hope so!!!

No thought gone into that top!

If the sponsor is the same design as last year, I won't be buying it.

[DAVE1875]

Doesn't stop me from pining over some of the design knockups posted in this thread. If that's the home kit it makes me want them even more :boo hoo:

[bigwheel]

if hibs have actually done this as our home strip, they couldn't have made a worse job of it. firstly, it comes over as a copycat manouver to what hearts have done this year, playing on the anniversary of ww1. Secondly, if they did want to do that, then at least make a quality replica that looks like the strips back then. this looks like a bad version of a sunday pub teams kit...it has no class, no sense of history. it will be by far, the worst choice in kit in living memory..i.

[NatureBoy]

That kit is repulsive, surely that is not our home kit? Always invest in a strip but will be giving it a miss this year if this is what's on offer.
:confused:

[Bristolhibby]

Yea, the WW1 thing is a joke.

I've always had a problem creme rating the START of a war.

We remember the dead every year on the 11th of November. And Armed Forces day has sprung up as well.

I would have said that the 11/11/2018 should be the appropriate day.

That said I have severe doubts about the quality of that sponsor.

I agree. IMO if we're going to make the gesture of honouring the fallen from WW1, it's kind of disrespectful to plaster the kit with gambling and alcohol companies. Either do it properly or not all at! A half arsed attempt is frankly insulting.

[Northern Hibby]

I'll wait till I see it properly, a photo taken in a dark store room on a phone is never gonna look good, I'll reserve judgment until I see it on a new signing ;-)

I dont think its got anything to do with WW1.

Thier memory marches on is a line from Glory Glory to the Hibees referring to the famous five. Given that we lost Lawrie Reilly last year i take it as being a tribute to them rather than anything to do with the war. I think everyone is getting thier knickers in a twist because Hearts continue to shamelessly associate themselves to Macrae's etc and have done so with the "commemorative strip" this season

Got to say I agree with this. Aside from the colour, theirs is a very nice effort. Then again, I do like Adidas.

[MrRobot]

I actually quite like it. Not as the home top as the home top should be a lighter green and have white sleeves IMO. If it was a 3rd kit or away, I would be pretty happy with it.

Would a more fitting tribute to the Famous Five not have been a 50s style top with a collar?

No arguments from me, looks like a horrible shiny material with no thought or design gone into creating it. I can only hope that it is some sort of "heritage" kit that we will be using as an away or third strip next season or someone has stuck a marathon bet logo on the worst looking green strip they could find as a massive wind up.

i can but hope

[Charnley 4]

12940Thanks for doing so quickly.

Given the amount of them there I would imagine that is the kit. Training tops don't usually have sponsors on either do they?

[MyJo]

The mock up of the nike template that Dundee United are using for thier away kit would have been perfect and much more fitting for a FF tribute to be included on

[MrRobot]

Think I'll probably stop supporting hibs if that is the top!!

Its just a tshirt!!!

You can probably buy them without any logo or badge for about 12.99!

Petrie must be a jambo or something! As if we weren't enough of a laughing stock!!

Deary me!

On closer inspection of nike teamwear looks we've been given the cheapest kit out there :faf:

Wow :rolleyes:

[J-C]

Is it not a tribute to the troops of WWI, hence the darker green and no white sleeves.

It is the home kit, and the memory refers to the F5.

Right so it was because they were all born when the solid bottle green top was being used, very cryptic that is :confused: and when you see the historic kit from that day, it is a plain round neck bottle green, so factually they have it correct.

[Matt92]

That is absolutely minging. Worst hibs strip since I can remember :sick:

[Centre Hawf]

Absolutely honking kit.

[J-C]

If they had made it less shiny and cheap looking with a granddad style collar, it would've looked a lot better.

[MrRobot]

Seeing it on, I actually really like it. Looks a bit on the baggy side so just hoping the small will fit :agree:

The white shorts and black socks compliment it well. And the added touch of the writing on it is a nice gesture.

[easty]

I don't like it. I'm not going to get all uptight about it though, it's just a football strip. If Stubbs gets us playing well I couldnae care less if it's this strip or some green skin tight leather effort with nipple tassels attached to the front they're playing in.

If you don't like it dinnae buy it. Greeting that "the club" are doing everything they can to piss us off is just pointless nonsense.

[DarrenSQH]

Looks cheap, crap and wrong. The famous five played in light green with white sleeves.

Hope their memory marching on doesnt wash off like last years printing on the top.

[mentalhibee]

Terrible top, lets hope we get the same design at Dundee Utd for the away one

[BroxburnHibee]

This is a money decision - pure and simple

I like the idea of it, a retro kit from past glory days. A nice touch. and nice to see the descendants of our famous five modelling the kit. I like the bottle green colour, and I hope we have better luck wearing it this season. GGTTH.

[Thecat23]

Utter bull****, using things like "we want to honer our past heroes"

Hibs have went for the cheap and nasty template here with a very poor strip. They can **** right off with that ****ty thing. I honestly am sick to death of the disappointment time after time.

FOR ONCE LISTEN TO THE FANS, you bunch of clowns!!!

[Paloschi]

They are just trying to put positive spin on something that is clearly down to money.

What happened to Hibs being transparent with the fans now? Why not just say 'we can't afford to spend more on the kit this season.'

It smacks of what was said yesterday regarding season tickets and putting positive spin on it and them thinking the fans are stupid.

Unreal.

Also get an effin assistant manager and some players in please. Joke.

[Bronson]

Hibs have clearly went for the cheapest option but it's going to backfire. Everyone hates this kit so who's actually going to buy it? They moan about poor season ticket sales affecting the manager's budget but bringing out that piece of sh*t isn't going to help the funds either.

They should stop hiring whoever they do to design these kits and just ask the fans on here. Some absolutely cracking designs, this being my personal favourite, one on the right is stunning.

[Billy McKirdy]

I love it. A complete break from tradition. I always thought that the white sleeves was more a tribute to Arsenal than a Hibs tradition and the insistence on white sleeves year in and out has held us back as far as strip design is concerned, it's the colours I wear that's important.
I welcome this.

It's just a kit. Like seriously, just a top for the players to wear on matchday. It's not that big a deal, surely?

It's the fact they have gone out and got an £8 template design. They talk about us buying things like strips etc.. To make money. It's universally hated so how's that thing going to bring in money??

Do we know how the kit deal is structured? Do we (the club) benefit from choosing the cheapest option out of the teamwear range? Do we get a percentage of kit sales?

They'll not be selling record levels with this strip that's for sure, but it's not as bad as it first looked. Some folk are going way over the top in their reaction, if you like it, buy it, if you don't like it, don't buy it.

My wee boy will be delighted to get his new Hibs strip, it's the Hibs badge on the top that matters to him.

Out of all the templates we had to choose from Nike this season the Nike Park V template we went for was the cheapest to buy. Dundee Utd away template Nike Laser II was the most expensive on offer. Are you surprised?

of course it's who puts on the strip that counts, but to give ourselves the best chance of recruiting a high calibre of player to put on that strip in the first place we should be releasing strips that can generate the most income, and that is not one of them.

That's not a fitting tribute to the famous 5, all that is is a training top with a Hibs badge chucked on it. Garbage.

Folk saying "it's only a top" and "drama queens" you are totally missing the point here.

Hibs put out the new strips so fans buy them and the money goes to the team. They really have gone with the cheapest option here and it could have a big effect on our budget.

We are struggling to sell season tickets right now and are way below what we should be selling. This was a real opportunity to do this right and bring out a top that will sell very well.

Instead it's a Sunday league template that if you buy in bulk get for £8 a top. The sponsor looks like it'll peel right off and to top it all, they have the cheek to pass it off as a tribute top!!! WTF?

So if that's me being a drama queen I'm sorry, I just want the best for Hibs and this is far from it.

Deary me. Drama queens are out in force today. If you dont like it dont buy it.

Tosh...the strip is the uniform of the team...if that looks crap (and there is no doubt it is) then what does that do for the image of the club.

Also strip sales and supporter goodwill are important for the club, for Hibs to achieve near universal disdain from its support in the kit choice is not just 'if you don't' like it don't buy it' scenario.

Sure the sky is not going to fall down but it's hardly helping to build bridges or generate critical revenue either is it?

Think the top is ok. Not sure about the white shorts, black socks and sponsors logo. Bottom line is those that will buy it will do. The FF idea is a good one however should have been a copy of the top that they wore when playing.
