2014/15 Home Kit

[Billychaotic182]

For me it's the sponsor that's the problem. It's too big. The red looks awful and we will have the same problem as last year that it will peel off after a few washes or if you iron it. To me we should have learned after last year.

It's a pitty that the idea is good but the final product is god awful.

Fingers crossed for a nice away top

[J-C]

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.


I don't get this either, bringing out a top from when they were born makes little sense, surely a top from the early 50's when they were winning leagues and playing in the European cup would've made more sense.

[SouthamptonHibs]

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

Thats the sad part loads won't.

im sure there not making an effort on purpose - surely no one thought this was the best strip to sell the most tops?

[brian6-2]

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.

So realistically, what your saying is whatever budget Stubbs has been given will now be snatched away from him cos a few folk dont like the strip.

I agree, it looks like its been designed by Helen Keller, But im not going to cry about it. I'll buy it regardless, as i do every season and hope that the away strip is a bit nicer.

I think the fact that Hibs might be going with the cheaper option of strip/template shows that they might at last be willing to spend a bit on the team.

If we get beat of Livvy in our first game will it be the strips fault?

no, I'm not saying it will be 'snatched away' I'm saying it will be reduced. in a time when LD has came out and said that they're keeping season ticket prices as they are as we need all the money we can get, why then turn round with this shambles of an effort which is evidently going to result in reduced sales and less revenue?

[GreenLake]

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.

The players could peel them off as part of an elaborate celebration after scoring a goal and stick them on the corner flag.

People are getting too caught up with the small things.

It is not the shirt/strip that counts, it is who is in it. Do I like it, no...not really. However, I can see the sense in the club saying "right, we need to get a cheaper shirt option in order to invest funds in players". That's also why we now have sponsor on front and back of strip now.

We need as much income without expenditure at the moment. I feel sorry for Leeann because if we hadn't been relegated and if she wasn't coming in during one of the darkest days of the club and superceeding Rod then much of what she is trying to do would be seen as a good move.

Now, the true outrage would be if we get substandard players in. That would be a travesty. Not ST prices, not the kit, not anything else. If we get poor players in after these events then the red mist will descend for many.

Stubbs, Craig and Leeann must get the best players and build a strong team. Then the shirt and ST prices will become a thing of the past.

Excellent strip/kit with terrible players, would this make people happy?

[E10 Rifle]

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

It's not simply about purchasing the strip though as a supporter is it - it's about the Hibs brand as a whole and this demeans and cheapens it even further as almost 90% of people on here seem to agree. If you can't see the marketing and therefore potential revenue disaster that this is, allied to the season ticket announcement yesterday, then your vision must be pretty short-sighted (probably why you seem content with the strip for one).

:agree: plus a good top that people like is a decent money earner as well.

So lets get our facts right then, Whats obvious here is Hibs have gone with a cheaper template of strip thus straight away saving the club money, How can you honestly sit there and predict the finances of our club? because a few folk on here and the 12 year olds on facebook that sit at home talking to pretend agents and dreaming up transfer rumours dont like it doesnt mean everyone feels the same does it? its the same when any club brings out a new strip, folk like it, folk dont. Voice your opinion if its that important to you and move on, its done now. They are hardly going to recall it and design a new one cos a few folk arent that keen on it.

I don't particularly like it to be honest however I refuse to get 'embarassed' about a football top as you seem to be.

Is that the official slogan from our Marketing Department?

I suppose it goes quite well with the reaction of another poster to complaints about the Season Ticket prices, which I believe is now the official slogan of the Ticket Department.....

"If you can afford one, buy one. If you can't, shut the f*** up!"





:wink:

[Phoenix]

It's a dire looking top, the sponsors logo totally ruins it, cheap & nasty, can't see many being sold TBH. :rolleyes:

I've never seen such a negative reaction towards a strip release for as long as I can remember, certainly qualifies as more than just a couple of 12 year olds and a couple folk on here. as you say though, opinions. time will tell. :agree:

[fishybeaver]

Nowt wrong with it, real shower off moaning ****s on here, always look forward to a bit of banter on these boards, but they have been totally spoiled by doom and gloom and folk just looking to have a pop at everything.

"Supporters message board"... I have my doubts!!!

[MB62]

Ladies and Gents, how many times has this got to be said.

Hibernian Football Club will make very little from the sale of anything from the shop, THEY SOLD THE RIGHTS TO THAT BEFORE THE START OF LAST SEASON.
Yes, they will probably get a small percentage from any sale but it's not going to make any huge difference revenue wise.

It looks bogging. Guess i'm not a real supporter for holding that opinion. Oh well. :rolleyes:

[portyhibernian]

Pains me to say it but look over the road at the Hearts kit. That is how to go retro and do it correctly.

[sesoim]

Terrible. This is by far the worst Hibs strip ever. It's bad enough that we have been relegated and have been in a mess for years, but now they go and change our strip into that? Absolutely appalling.

Besides taking away the white sleeves, which is an absolute no-no, the whole style looks cheap and badly designed. It feels like it isn't Hibs anymore.

I feel even more depressed now!

[My_Wife_Camille]

Hate it. That's no Hibernian kit. That's just whatever ***** that was left over in the Nike stock room that was close enough to green that Hibs have had to take. Then, like the 'down the slope' kit, they've made up some cheap story to go along with it to try and justify the fact that we've been given some random shirt that was never made with Hibs in mind.

I'll probably get it in May when it's a Fiver but only to chuck in the cupboard with the rest of the collection

Going for a cheaper template doesn't save Hibs any money, Just Sport give the club the kitroom stock as part of the deal and then they sell and make profit on the shirts and other merchandise through the club store they run and we get a fixed amount up front, the only people saving money are Just Sport who buy the kits from Nike before slapping our badge and sponsor logo's on them

[hibbeedavid]

And regarding the kit itself:

Idea = excellent
End product = very poor, looks cheap (not surprising as it's an £8 jersey) shorts appear to just be last seasons again and socks need some form of green in them to tie in with rest of the kit, and making it a Famous 5 tribute strip is just puzzling as common sense would be that a reproduction of a kit they wore would have been a better idea, for a 1 off no white sleeves wouldn't bother me but for this 'tribute' it is just weird

very poor and it appears it will be another PR own goal from Hibs yet again

What a terrible kit

[Biggie]

I wonder if they did any research into this before deciding on it...maybe a few focus groups....something...anything to get feedback on how well it would go down..

Seems we're left with a god awful home strip (yeah its only a year), but **** me, its more than "just a strip"....the green and white its part of our brand.

Also, just cos the yams did a tribute strip to their war dead, doesn't mean we have to follow suit with one to the famous five !....can just see the "marketing team" burning the midnight oil to come up with that beauty...

Spot on. Lets announce some decent signings and focus on getting back to where we should be.

I know it's not the biggest thing to be upset about but it's like the club is trying to wind folk up these days.

[Boyle89]

Oh dear. I was really hoping that was a training top. I feel like we can't do anything right as a club anymore :(. Please let there be some signings soon! I've liked the last few strips so I suppose I was due one I didn't like.

[E10 Rifle]

Where did I say I was content with the strip ?

I don't particularly like it to be honest however I refuse to get 'embarassed' about a football top as you seem to be.

As I said it's more than that, it's just another part of demeaning and lessening the Hibs brand which I do find embarrassing. Anyway, I'll calm my jets now as there's sod all I can do about the decision...but; I find the marketing pitch that goes with it almost insulting. To my mind it's nothing more than a straightforward attempt to hoodwink supporters into buying rubbish through a tenuous link to the Famous Five (seriously is a 6 year period during which they were born the best we could do to honour these men??)! This is a retro-fit marketing strategy in all its making based on wanting to buy cheap and sell high. I'm done (honest).

Truly awful strip. I get the fact we have not always had white sleeves but the reasons given for removing them are just daft. To honour when they were born is wrong. You honour their achievements not their birth.

Green with white sleeves is Hibs.

[DAVE1875]

Another kit ruined by the sponsor logo. Hate to say this but I think we should've done the same as Hearts and had no sponsor on the home top (or at least minimize it & stick it under the badge).


Also why is the embroidery on the shoulder? Would it not look better say on the back of the neck or under the badge?

[fishybeaver]

It looks bogging. Guess i'm not a real supporter for holding that opinion. Oh well. :rolleyes:
Now to do with being a real supporter or not... IMHO there are too many who are now looking for ways to start moaning at everything little thing.
If you dont like it then dont buy it, same with season tickets, but quotes like "I am ashamed, its embarrassing, are the club just trying to wind us up etc" are unessesary.

We aint even kick a ball yet this season is a shamble apparently.

Constant moaning is becoming a cancer in our club and needs to stop!!

[J-C]

I don't buy strips any more, all kids grown up but I still feel it's a cheap looking top and if the club wanted fans to buy it, they've missed out spectacularly.

[Bishop Hibee]

The club must think we have 'mug' tatooed on our foreheads....and who can blame them as fans will buy the strip, eat the **** food and be expected to accept whatever is served up on the pitch. No wonder fans are not coming back til their are signs that things are being sorted on and off the pitch at ER.

I've asked them what they think of it and they think it is horrible.

These shirt threads are hilarious. Grown men getting hysterical because they don't like a football top. Matching the age of some of the posters to their ranting is great fun. :greengrin
Here's the thing, every single replica top looks cr@p when worn by anybody other than the team and children. I wear them realising I look ridiculous. Although strangely I actually like this one.

[KiddA]

So this is what we have been waiting for :rolleyes: worst Hibs jersey in living memory.

[Hibeesmad]

I think it's alright

[sbell1875]

I'll buy it to keep up my record of purchasing every home shirt since season 97/98 but I will confess to not being happy with the end product.

A greater tribute would have been an old school 50's shirt with a collar and really baggy white shorts.

[1950's hibbie]

Nothing to get our shirt in a knot about, but it is unusual to honour year of birth, year of death possibly, but years of glory would seem the most appropriate. For most of us the white sleeves were Hibs to us and were for many years unique to Hibs in Scotland.

That only works if people buy it. Cheap production costs giving a **** strip will mean loads of sunk costs that Hibs can't recoup.

I want Hibs to sell out because supply can't keep up with the insatiable demand due to launching a classic kit. Not for the club to be selling them off for a tenner come April next year.

It's a big thing for a lot of people! Certainly when I was younger it was the thing I most looked out for in the summer.

This is the second kit we've had that had been picked out of a catalogue and looked crap. No effort, nothing unique about it and looks cheap.

A small part of the club maybe, but symbolic of the shambles that we seem to have developed into.

[edinburghhibs]

Don't like this all green top at all, as for the black socks....... I wouldn't like it any time to be fair (I've always thought our white sleeves were really smart, and the strip worn by Stanton & Co was part of the reason I fell in love with and started to support Hibs as a 6 year old) but the timing of this seems wrong. Dunno about anyone else, but I'm still recovering after last season's debacle and am nervous about the coming season. I understand the time period it's from and what the club are trying to say, but this does not evoke any memories of the famous 5 for me at all.

If they club had released this months ago, just said there's your kit and been done with it I would've been quite happy, kits don't bother me anyway.

But it's the fact they waited until July, banned all photos from being leaked told people to be quiet about how it looks so they could exclusively reveal it, And give us all some Story about commemorating the famous five, just to hide the fact they've bought an £8 top and put no thought whatsoever into it.

Ps, they're banning anyone who doesn't like it from their twitter page, well done, Hibs, well ****ing done.

I am too long in the tooth to be buying football tops so what it looks like make no difference to me as regards to buying one . but what gets me is the strip is a symbol of the club the part the general public see when kids are wearing them out and about and I'm afraid to say it represents the club as we are just now cheap and amateur.

[edinburghhibee]

I've looked at it on the website and I've decided I don't like it at all. It's a terrible shirt and I'm slightly embarrassed we are passing this off as a famous five tribute. It's really brutal and cheap looking. Hopefully the team in the shirt performs better.

Why not a close tribute to the FF strip of the 1950s.. this is cheap Nike rubbish.. lets have a proper Hibs white-sleeved shirt next season, by a better manufacturer.. Adidas

The people behind branding Hibs need shot. Be it TBGWA, this strip, which is an embarrassment to the 5's memory, arrogantly selling season tickets in March, months early when the previous campaign was in full swing, to constantly hyping up games and expectations with long forgotten photos of flag waving fans, rather than excellent players and games.

It is time for this club to get back to basics and traditional values. They need to earn the Edinburgh (and beyond) respect by creating a decent, honest team which tries to entertain and give a good day out at a fair price, rather than cheap (or not so cheap) slogans or gimmicks. The 1950's were a long time ago. It is time for us to do something now and not cheapen the memory with tawdry tatt.

Definitely agree with you saying that the amount of bet wetting on here is mental. Not just about the strip though.

I came on here yesterday and made my feelings clear about the strip. I took my boy down today just to view it. I'd like to say it's not as bad in the flesh as the pics.

Not sure why that is but it's not as cheap looking. Still not my cup of tea but it isn't as bad as what I first thought. Also met Stubbs, Stevenson and Hanlon which was a bonus for my son.

Got him a training top the black and white one and they are actually quite smart.

Stubbs seemed very upbeat and I hope that rubs off of the rest of the squad.

That was the impression I got from the zoom in shots from the website.

On that strength I ordered it.

The pictures (unsurprisingly) have got better and better.

1. shiny material on a camera phone.
2. Launch on f5 grandchildren, better, but still cheap looking.
3. Much better pictures on the online shop, looks good zoomed in.
4. People reporting it's nice and good quality in the flesh.

Lesson learnt for this time next year. Get players to model new strip.

And not Edwin "box to box" de Graaf, photoshopped onto somone else's body!

I don't understand why the players haven't modeled the strip the last couple years, looks a lot better than middle-aged men surely?

Brilliant pic. Where did you guys get the NOHTARAM logo?

I actually think it looks fantastic.

The white shorts and black socks are a great combination too.

Mon the Hibs.

Best strip for years. Maybe an age thing, but the simplistic styling is class in my view. Great green colour, like the length of the shorts and love the black socks. Miles away from the stereotypical guff representative of a Next leisure top as wore in recent years. I'd like to see the players wear the long green sleeves version and plain black boots. Class outfit for the greatest football team in the history of the world bar none.

At first when I saw it on the club site I was disappointed with the effort. However, seeing it hanging up in the shop, it looks a nice kit bar the sponsor having red on it. I bought it, guy behind the till asked me if I liked it & I said i wasn't overly impressed but will grow on me like our last away kit. The colour is nice but the sponsor lets it down as does the non white sleeves. I did tell him that the important part is that the guys wearing the shirt get results on the pitch!

[SHODAN]

I actually really like it now.

Still undecided whether I'll pay up £44 though.

Well done, all look good

[07BigD]

Ahem, Mr W Hill paid for it

[NAE NOOKIE]

Right !!!

I Don't have a total downer on a strip without white sleeves. But this strip is dominated by an advert boxed in to look like its an afterthought stuck on ..... rather than being an integral part of the strip. Add in the black socks and it looks, bland, cheap and depressing.

Its ***ing depressing !!!

Agreed

I am appalled that the strip is so far removed from the traditional Green front and White sleeves. Clearly Nike had an end batch of material that was sold to Hibs on the cheap. If I was Alan Stubbs, I would do an Akex Ferguson and refuse to put out a team in it. Money talks but the fans talk louder. They would surely get right behind the new manager with backbone. Bringing the Famous Five into this first division business is a total embarrassment. Our marketing should simply be players who are determined to win the division. The famous five would be sad to see the comedy farce that has occurred at our once great club. Leanne, did Rod Petrie sanction the strip ? That would explain things.

That's all.

[Hibeesforever]

That's all.

The problem is Leanne said her aim was to encourage more kids in the community to wear Hibs tops. How exactly will that happen when the home kit looks like what is described as a poor ugly Sunday league outfit. Back to Basics is all that is needed for this club. Starts with players being proper athletes, to outfits just being classic recognisable Hibs colours. Anything else is a distraction and explains why we are in the state we are.

Just a bit of positive news, ordered 2 training top (yes for training) Thursday night, arrived this morning to sunny Nottingham. Quick delivery, very happy with the tops too. Hope folk arent waiting ages.

Snap, although it has my county as Alderney, rather than Wiltshire!

The postcode and the rest of the address is correct so it should be fine.

For a fiver I'm hoping this is first class special delivery.

Just turned up in the post this morning.

Ordered yesterday lunchtime, so 10/10 for Hibs on that front.

The kit is actually very well made and don't worry about the sponsors logo as it's toughened up.

Can't comment on the fit as I have lost almost 4 stone since last year, so I'm a completely different size anyway.

But I am a Large in the new Scotland jersey, and a Hibs large fits me fine.

Mines arrived as well, I advise peeps to check it out in the shop as it looks a lot better when you see if in person

Yes went down this morning and have changed my mind on it after seeing it. Still don't like the large sponsor on it though ! But I guess that's what we need to accept if we are to get lucrative sponsorship just now !

Might I just point out that this strip could be said to be an overdue return to our club's roots?

http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Scottish_Football_League/Hibernian/hibernian.htm

We didn't wear white sleeves until just before the Second World War.

In fact many historians believe that our white sleeves were the final reason Hitler invaded Poland and started the the whole sorry business.

[Bristolhibby]

Same with Arsenal.

I wonder if the Arsenal message board went into melt down when they went to the dark red home shirt in 2005?

[The_Exile]

Having seen it today in the flesh, I actually really like it, the quality isn't bad and the green is actually a wee bit lighter than the photo's make out. I also really like the simplistic design, a lot of modern strips are quite busy and have too much on them. The red in the logo does stick out like a sore thumb, and from what I've heard we did ask if they would compromise on the colour but they refused. Understandable I suppose considering it's their brand/logo etc, but it's either that or a sponsor that looks nice on the strip but pumps considerably less into the club.

Anyway, last time we won the Scottish Cup we didnae have white sleeves :hmmm:

Yuck!

Tbh in real life its doesn't look QUITE as bad as I first thought. Still don't like it though

[Turkish Green]

Maybe it is myopia or an optical illusion but the logo looks bigger than on the Fulham shirt. I think it is because they have the "Bet" placed below "Marathon" rather than after it. Also stands out on a green shirt as opposed to the Fulham White.

If it was a return to our roots then we'd be reclaiming the hoops. Most, if not all of us, have only known the white sleeves.

Not had an update on my order since i ordered it on Friday :rolleyes:
