    Adidas quality is awful. Used them at a few teams in the past and delighted to only ever use Macron now.

    I don't know about strips etc., but when I was a lad the Adidas name was a guarantee of quality in footwear - trainers, football boots, whatever.

    Nowadays they produce a large amount of crap. Not all of it, but a lot.

    Looks a decent shirt to me. Not fussy and obviously Scotland the way I like my shirts. Are the blue shorts tonight because Israel are in white shorts or are blue shorts the new strip?

    Yup. There’s a desperation from football fans to want to look too cool for the big brands when it comes to strips but there’s a reason the likes of Adidas and Nike are the biggest sportswear brands in the world. Their strips are absolutely miles ahead of the likes of Macron. Macron can’t even get their sizes right ffs.

    Give me a Nike or adidas template ahead of a Macron monstrosity any day.

    Sorry but for me Macron has been a breath of fresh air. Haven't bought an adult Hibs shirt in years, that changed last season - didn't think we would get a better one than that.....then they released this seasons and it was even better, no issues with the sizing either.
    Will agree there is something classic about the Adidas kits, think its the stripes....reminds me of some of the best teams and best kits ever, they are a class above. Can't agree with Nike though. As a kid in the 80s they were a standard barer of quality but those days are past. Their emergence as a football kit manufacturer has also been very disappointing....they strive for classic but achieve bland, questionable quality as well based on what people were telling me from our recent flirtation with them.

    The nicest things that Adidas produce are the classic ranges. T-shirts, tops, gutties, all the older ones look best. Although I am the last person you would take fashion advice from!!
    I think the macron strips have generally good. I do love the early 80s Adidas Hibs tops though. Again retro

    Agree. The Originals range with the trefoil branding still churns out some decent retro looking stuff - and relaunches of old favourites. The quality of the shoes has gone way down hill on what it was 30/40 years ago though.

    I think the modern Adidas offerings are poor in comparison to days gone by.

    I have previous Adidas strip. Pure classic. I will wear it till I die. Gets lots of envious looks here in the Philippines.

    Does anyone know why Adidas don’t make new kits with the trefoil logo? I reckon as soon as they did they’d end up selling loads, even to neutrals

    It's to do with the corporate structures and subsidiaries that make up the Adidas group. The trefoil logo is exclusive to the Originals and heritage range.

    Umbro, with diamonds down the sleeves, side of the shorts and top of the socks. Yes please.

    That Millwall top is amazing. I could have handled something like that as a home!

    Adidas and Nike teamwear is simply rotten. Based on experience I would never buy it for a club again. Macron lasts season after season. Don’t be fooled by old school brands churning out cheap rubbish.

    Adidas is Sports Direct standard now. Think Pierre Cardin, Slazenger etc.

    It USED to be good, back in the day. It ain't anymore though.

    Whereas Macron is really excellent quality. Material, look and fit.
