New bespoke Macron / San Marino kits.
I quite like them because I like simple strips. But when I see that I wonder why people hate Nike etc so much. Nike produce tops like that all the time and people blow their top at being given a stock design. I think it’s almost just became the done thing to hate the big brands for no reason other than they’re a big brand.

I think it’s almost just became the done thing to hate the big brands for no reason other than they’re a big brand.I’m not a massive fan of Macron, but in their defence, they have a huge range of different features (such as collars etc) that clubs can chose from - I’m yet to see two Macron kits look the same.
Even this one has some added detail I’ve not seen any other club have:

Whereas Nike will happily provide the exact same template in the exact same colour to dozens of clubs over a period of 2 or 3 seasons, with only the sponsor and club crest changed.
In fact, Macron just signed a deal to be the provider for UEFA's Kit Assistance Scheme, creating bespoke kits for minows like San Marino, Faroe Islands etc, whereas Adidas had given 4 of them the exact same kit:

Just to get any negative comments out there, before I’m completely awestruck by the new kit, I do hope the sizing is a bit more consistent this time - for this year’s i had to buy 2 sizes up from my usual, and I know others were the same.

The pattern is ok but the collar is brutal. And I still don't get the socks. Unless it's just really bad lighting the main green is totally random and matches nothing else on the kit.

Something for the fans reps to bring to the table at board level. Would be a very good way to engage the support, in particular those who are artistic and in tune with the main support. Surely wouldn’t be that difficult and fans could vote on preferred option (those on the database).
In today’s social media age I’m not sure a ‘reveal’ has any impact on sales anyway. Strips are leaked way before they are officially announced so to me there’s no point.
Let the fans take part in the design, vote and then choose the ‘winner’.
I quite fancied hoops with the tag line ‘first to wear.....if you know you’re history’ just to wind up Celtic !

The kits haven’t even been released yet and a few seem quite disappointed/unhappy. Thing is I can’t quite blame them as the away top seems nowhere near as good as some have made it out to be, we’ve been here before with red logos on Hibs tops and it doesn’t work. I’m willing to give the home top some more time given the lighting quality on that picture but I can’t see much difference. When we first announced our deal with Macron I was concerned and now I’m starting to see why, as one poster above mentioned they’d of saved us and them a lot of stress by simply going with one of the mockups on here that always seem to outclass the eventual kit(s).

Let’s face it - Marathon Bet’s official branding is red. We’ve kept that off our kits since 2014/15 - I expect Marathon Bet have paid more money to have their actual colours on one of our strips.

I think both are excellent and can't wait to see them for real.
The away top is what we've waited for for a long time, white with green sleeves is a classic.
The home top will look a treat with the diamonds stretched over the beer bellies of our less active supporters.

Let’s face it - Marathon Bet’s official branding is red. We’ve kept that off our kits since 2014/15 - I expect Marathon Bet have paid more money to have their actual colours on one of our strips.
Exactly. Would be like having Argos sponsor you and wanting the sponsor to be green so it goes with your top. Red is their colour and they pay us to have their name on the strip. Can’t blame them for wanting it done right.

Hibs won't be happy with this, strips are plastered all over social media - not much hype for the official launch anymore.
I thought the marathon bet sponsor has looked great since ever since our 2014/15 home kit but the red looks really bad.

The red sponsor logo makes a potentially great top look poor.

If it was green it would have the potential to be one of our best ever away kits I reckon
I agree. If the logo was the same colour as the sleeves, or even black, it would have been a lovely top. Totally ruined by the red sponsor though.

Had the marathon bet on the away top been green or even black I'd have bought that one. Red is a huge no anywhere on any Hibs kit IMO. As it stands the home top is going to have to really grown on me to purchase it. (If these are legit of course)
Pity, as I really loved last seasons Macron kits and had high hopes for this seasons.
Just wish Hibs would produce templates and offer the fans a few designs in a online poll. We say every season that the fan mock kits are better than what is actually produced so why not tap into those idea's and gain bigger strip sales with the increase in popularity of the kits.

Smartie
01-06-2018, 12:26 PM
The away one is nearly brilliant, but that red sponsor is never going to work with our green. Might have looked better with black or purple, but not with the green. The white body, dark green sleeves and collar are fantastic though - if it wasn't for that bloody sponsor it would be up there with our best.
I'll probably need to see the home one to make up my mind. Don't like the collar, but it might look a bit better on Kamberi or Allan. I quite like the 2 shades of green idea.
Not the worst, but not the best, which is a shame since this is the kit we're going to win the league in.

Not the best photo which has probably taken the shine 9ff the launch, if those designs were on the template some of our posters use you'd have people proclaiming it's one of the best they've seen.
Only real complaint for me it the collar on the home top, never been a fan or grandad collars on football tops. If it was a white crew neck it would have improved it massively. Once folk see the official pictures and see it in the flesh I'm sure the opinions will differ for many, if not most.
I'm a fan of the away top, red logo really isn't a huge issue for me.

One of the worst home kits i can remember. Have we not done the whole colour debate and vote? If so, why is someone going against the grain? Or at least trying to have some sort of transition in one kit. From that pic it looks like emerald flashes on the sleeve that dont match any colour on the rest of the top.
At the end of the day, its just a top but its not a good one. Too dark!

The away one is class and although the red isn’t great it’s not the worst. Huge over reaction, the collars I like! Also we’ve had red on our sponsors logo a good few times before. All in all I think it’s been a massive over reaction and the kits will look better come half 7 and the proper pictures etc. Plus when we qualify for the group stages of the Europa and win the cup they’ll be hot property

Will reserve full judgement for the main release (and when I see it on someone less scrawny than Oli Shaw), but a little disappointed with both. It’s the small details that make a kit and these both miss the mark with those.
Away would have been a classic if it wasn’t for Marathon Bet logo - they’ve been an icon sponsor to us though and maybe I can bregrudingly give them this one. Will be remembered more fondly than Frank Graham Group in the future.
Home top would have been far better if it faded from dark green at the bottom to emerald green at the shoulders. Pattern is quite cool, but the collar is gash. And so is the fit - why are they both kits so damn short?

Im purely looking at the fact that the photo looks really really fake..
Unlucky, because its real.
Old fart fans want classic, club wants sales. The young team want to look cool.
All that matters is the sales.
Nowhere near the worst kit ever which was the 'doon the slope' Puma atrocity. (when there was no slope)

I like them both as well, bit surprised at the reaction to be honest.
The away one is cracking
It’s what’s called an overreaction Matty - I’m just waiting for same said critics to slowly drip feed the “..actually it’s really nice close up / in real life” posts - as someone said it’s the predictable ‘strip bingo’ thread heronin !

How is it an over reaction if someone doesn't like it ?

I think calling for Leeann Dempster's resignation because of it could maybe be classed as an over reaction.

Maybe going against the tide here but I really like the home top. It's different, imaginative and saves me worrying about changing my mind re. bottle/emerald green!
Not as keen on the red sponsor on the away kit but still like it.
I'll buy the home top!

How do you know what most fans want? There's plenty fans who wanted something more unusual/unique.
An educated guess that most fans want something similar to the simple tops of the 70s and 80s, certainly more than want Hibs to "expirement" with our traditional home kit.

There's folk on here that think the purple and green striped 90's shocker is 'classic'.
That's because it's their era of Hibs.
I dare say you could draw a parallel between what strips we all like on here and what era we grew up supporting Hibs in.

I don't see that to be honest. Most folk I know in my age range (I'm early 30s) want a simple ,classic and traditional Hibs home kit. I've never met any Hibs fan , of any age , who has said they'd like the club to be expiremental with our home kit.

Strips look fine to me but I’m not going to be wearing one anyway. Ozyhibby Jnr will like it I’m sure.
Only strip I’ve really hated was the one we had first season in the championship. Felt the club were taking the **** that summer.

You'd have to be a right knob to do that.
Having seen them I'd say they are moderately honking. Prob get used to them if we are playing ok though.

Well I like them, both! :greengrin
Like the fact we've gone for something a wee bit different with the home top, a subtle pattern and like the green combination. Wouldn't want it every year, but if we just churned out a plain green top with white sleeves every year then the grumbles would be on here that it's boring / too plain etc.

I'm still hoping this is a wind up, as the whole setting just doesn't seem right. However, if they are real I won't be buying them for my kids.
The current strips are so much better.
Seriously? You won't be buying the kits for your kids purely because 'you' don't like them?
I've read some weird reactions from some on here about the new strip but that's the oddest for me....

I'm early 30s and all for an experimental strip.
The Skol Cup winning strip (arguably our most popular in recent times) was experimental.
The cult classic Green and Purple stripes was experimental.

Think this proves that hibs should have a constant sales line of retro/reproduction shirts
If you don’t like the new one, you can still buy a shirt

So Hibs put out a dark green strip with white sleeves and an oft requested white top with green sleeves.

Adidas will always have a green t-shirt for you to buy, don't worry.
Speaking of Adidas, I remember the first game of the Skol Cup season against Davie Hay's St. Mirren and there was a picture of Keith in the programme in the new kit.
My dad said 'How f*****g difficult is it to get a Hibs strip right FFS?!?!'
No doubt that's generally considered a classic now.

I am somewhat more mature than most and dont buy or wear replica strips ( principle is, just like jeans, dont wear them once you pass a certain age).
I am waiting for the official cardigan and jerkin launch. Has anyone any details?

Nearly all kits are leaked these days.
Mobile phones etc rarely leave anything a complete surprise.
Hibs have done well to keep fans guessing till today.
As for the kits - I am surprised they have tried to bring back Bottle Green when fans voted for the Emerald Green.
Also not a huge fan of the collar on the previous home top or these ones (mainly home).
I agree experiment with the away top but the home should be kept simple - though will be a talking point and for that reason may sell and get people who don't know Hibs talking / asking questions.

The colour of a sponsor logo on a replica shirt of a football club is a 'fiasco' ?

Why is it two shades of green? Surely the club have their ear to the ground enough to realise most fans just want a simple , traditional Hibs kit.
Not a fan of bottle green. But at least there is emerald in there too. Is the glass half full or half empty? End of the day it doesn't matter what shade of green or subtle pattern, as long the performance and results on the pitch are good. And if the fashion experts think something a bit different will boost replica kit income, fair doos.
