    Surely the thistle is a nod to the national team playing in a major competition again? Not got an issue with it, as some have also said we're representing the nation in Europe this season so

    Best strip since 15/16

    Sorry, I should have made it clear, someone from the Czech Republic might understand the thistle but be a bit confused by our national animal. 😉

    The whole thing is worth it just for the reaction from the big teams fans. Biting everywhere 😂

    Beyond bizarre that a wee thistle on the back is causing so much concern. Actually think it's a classy touch for a club representing Scotland in European competition.

    But the point of football club identity - and branding - is to differentiate, to stand out, to assert what makes your club different to the rest.

    Picking an emblem with no previous attachment, that is literally the name of some other clubs we compete with, on the flimsy pretext, the same flimsy pretext that could apply to all our competitor clubs is just odd.

    We have 3 emblems already, adding a 4th for no reason seems pointless and manufactured.

    Its a Hibs strip ffs, not a Scotland strip, or an Edinburgh Thistle strip.

    can't be the same every year, they have done a couple things which are unique and make it different to the other "same as" style strips these strip companies usually do.

    well done hibs for doing something different - a breath of fresh air and have what we all want green top white sleeves.

    I’m sure that will give a few posters a riddy.

    I think the strip is a cracker, I also like the thistle I had no idea about the thistle emblems of the 50s so that was interesting it also reminds me a little of the old baw and crown badge we had back in the 80s

    I really like it to be honest - the map is a lovely touch without looking garish.

    I'd love to see a black away strip with a white version of the map and some green trims.
    It's hard to stitch my own back with these shaky hands
    But even harder to accept the scars you left were planned

    If it was a black strip with the map in white it would be way too garish. The white would be too dominant a colour contrasted to the black.

    How is a thistle, representative of the country, unrelated to hibs, a Scottish club?

    I'm really not understanding your hatred of the thistle, it isn't even that prominent.
    I dont hate the thistle, i dont hate many things- i just prefer a Hibs top to be related to Hibs, and its 146 years of history.

    A thistle is fine if your Partick Thistle, or ICT, or Buckie Thistle, or Edinburgh Thistle.

    I just dont, nor have i ever, associated it with Hibs, anymore than i do whisky, jacobites, bonnie prince charlie shortbread. Its not mentioned in any songs, never seen it on flags, official or unofficial.

    But thats just my take, others are available and equally valid 👍

    I know, liking things associated with Hibs, and not liking things not associated with Hibs on a Hibs strip is mental eh!

    Maybe white wouldn't quite work, but perhaps a muted grey?

    Maybe it's also a good thing I'm not in charge of designing anyting

    Would you have been ok with a Saltire? That's a genuine question, not sarcastic or arsey.
