    Retired so on a permanent holiday.

    Have a large collection of HIbs strips and most days I am in my Sydney suburban front garden with one of them on.

    No doubt some people driving the cars that pass every day, only register the green and white and not the subtle differences in the various strips,, ..and probably think I'm wearing the same one day in, day out!

    I'm too old for fives and holidays so I wear my top around the old folks home :-)

    Imo the waring of football tops by adults, especially on holiday should be banned unless your team is playing.
    Out of curiosity can I ask why?

    I personally find it a tad cringey and have found it can attract trouble if your with groups of lads abroad and happen to bump into a group of undesirables. Leave the wearing of football tops to the kids.

    Not a strip but was wearing my Cup winning T-Shirt in Southern Spa[n when a fellow fan came over to my wife and i, introduced himself (hi Ray) told us that he lived nearby. We had a few drinks and a spot of lunch. He then asked would we care to go out on his boat, which is called The Persevere. Our schedules did not tie up but we have kept in touch and next time we will take him up on his kind offer. So, always wear those colours with pride.

    I suppose it depends where you go on holiday, I will wear mine with pride today in Berlin.

    If people want to wear football tops or hang flags/towels then fire in. Personally dont own a strip as I hate the material but always take my hibs towel wherever I go

    I’m a bit double standard on this stuff...don’t wear a Hibs top , haven’t done since about 14 years old...not my thing

    However, always like to see people in Hibs gear around the world ....

    I don't normally wear a top unless I'm going to a match but in Uganda I wore a top regularly and was filmed to be broadcast on national TV. There are now a few in Kampala who have Hibs tops

    I’ve enough assorted Hibs t shirts (one strip) to ensure that I am suitably and differently attired every day on holiday.
    Meant a few ‘looks’ from some over the years, and approval from others - including a ‘Hi Hibby’ from a Chinese bloke passing in Hong Kong.
    The missus used to frown on it a bit, but once I hit my sixties she seemed to relax and even looks them all out for me prior to holiday packing.
    I quite like to see other strips on holiday too, apart from the usual suspects and others that I deem to be glory hunters.

    A football top is a fine garment for holidays, if you wear it for breakfast, you can then wear it in the pool, and if theres any breakfast residue dropped on it you then can dry it on your sun bed, and its ready then for going out at night.

    I take 2 with me if i'm away for a fortnight, it leaves plenty of space in the suitcase for Donkeys and sombreros i always bring back.

    Well I’m 68 and I thoroughly approve of hanging a Hibs flagfrom your holiday hotel’s balcony.


    Why not?
    It’s not something me or the hotel approves of , that’s why not.

    Why’s it sad? Out of interest?
    I was being sarcastic in response to the poster who said it was ‘sad as ****’ to comment on what folk wear abroad.

    I don’t see how it’s ‘sad’ to make a remark on an opinion based football forum.

    I also don’t need to ‘get a grip’.

    There’s nothing like a wee reminder of Hibs when you are in your holidays to cheer you up, whether it’s a shirt, flag or something else. I saw this in a bar in Bangkok a couple of weeks after we won the cup. That the legend of SDG reached as far as Thailand 🇹🇭 shortly after his heroics fair made my day.

    I think it's a bit naff older guys wearing strips but polos and t-shirts are ok. I usually take a couple of the latter and wore one the other week when out cycling in Turkey.

    I was there for the anniversy of the Cup Final and had s toast with our host who's a Galatasaray fan. I took an HMS Argyll rugby strip (cotton and cool) which is a lovely dark green with white sleeves.
    I agree with this. Each to their own, but it is all a bit naff for me which nobody will find surprising given my comments on the name on the third strip thread.

    Life's too short to bother about folk wearing football gear. Crack on, or not.

    I very rarely wear a Hibs top to matches but I do tend to buy them in the end of season sale purely for sitting around the pool on holiday.

    Always have my boy kitted out in Hibs gear on holiday. He usually gets a "C'mon the Hibees" reaction from some folks. Never had any negative reactions.
