My top three:
1) the 1960s all-white with green trim (although not sure if they wore it often).
2) 'Greensleeves' (as worn by Turnbull's team v Hearts, Sporting and so on).
3) The most recent purple one.

2000/01 white number we wore in the SC final was a cracker.
The purple and green stripe one circa 1995 is a favourite of mine though. Would love a dark purple away top again.

Don't know if it got aired much right enough. Paddy looks exceptional in it.

The Bukta one that got us into trouble was great. Looked retro even when it was new.

I like the white top.
I had to go back to look at the photo again to spot the legend that is Pat Stanton,front row centre,
Unfortunatley i do not recognise any other player.
Perhaps someone can name the squad.

Should add my Dad was most pleased you got the spelling of the surname correct in your book.Last edited by Pretty Boy; 20-01-2013 at 07:13 PM.

That top always reminds me of Freddie Arpingon for some reason. Cracking top with tidy collar though. Originally Posted by Pretty Boy

I liked the yellow away top we had when we beat Celtic 3-1 at Parkhead. Black out was decent too.

I always like the white, never keen on yellow.
I liked the mint top (I know I am in the minority) but it was runied by not having black shorts and socks!

Think he's on about the green top that had "Bukta" splattered on it. The beeb wouldn't show highlights as sponsorship was a no go. We ended up wearing a tv top with club crest and no big bukta on it. Originally Posted by stoneyburn hibs

Which was the white with Adidas stripes on the sleeves in green? Now that was a football top. Mind you, our home as away kits this season are right up there, it's certainly my favourite ever home shirt.

1960s-Away/productinfo/2045/
The retro strips company, Toffs, do the 1960s away kit, although they have spoiled it a wee bit by adding. A Hibs badge, 'for distinction', which the original didn't have. As far as I'm aware, Hibs only used this for the pre-season public trial match - presumably where the picture included in an earlier post was taken - unless anyone knows otherwise. Suppose there was no need for us to have a change strip, given no one else in Scotland played in green (Celtic excepted).
Don't know if Hibs ever had a change strip prior to this, although I have seen an old photo where we wore black shorts against Hearts at Tynecastle -20s/30s? - when there was apparently a rule that all away teams wore black shorts - don't know why.

We used to wear black socks too on and off in that period.
