On closer inspection, the Hearts graphic is in the wrong place, is it not?? First thing I thought. The crest looks far too far over to the left hand side. Could just be the size of the shirt photographed though. Obviously it is missing the Olympic Sports logo as I think they went out of the game years ago. The badge looks far too big as well and looks more like the club shop replica (heat press version) than the one worn in the cup. Although be fair I think I moaned the badge on the actual cup shirts was too small at the time anyway I still have a pile of the original SFL Lextra sleeve badges somewhere as well so gives me the opportunity to use them up. Think there are some reasonably prices Asian replica SFL badges still kicking about on Ebay if people want them as well without having to shell out a fortune on real ones. Nit picking aside it looks pretty cool and not a bad replica. Well done Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts are looking to make money on these to help finance the stand so, given it will be collectable, I reckon £75 is a reasonable guess. I hope it’s a nicer material than the original.

I am only presuming this so bare with me. Strongbow I think are owned by Heineken and over the past few years at Hearts events - POTY, Hall of Fame etc Heineken have sponsored full tables if not the whole event. Sure there is a pretty reasonably good relationship with Hearts and Heineken. I would presume Strongbow / Heineken would be ecstatic to get a bit of free advertising on this shirt. Would doubt they would be taking any cash for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are basically the same except on the 2001/02 shirt there is a Pro Match label on the bottom left of the shirt.

queensferryjambo Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Just for comparison and for fun (I know, I know, no fun allowed on kickback) here are comparisons of the new replica shirt, a league match worn away shirt, a cup final player shirt and a cup winners shirt. New replica - League match worn shirt - It has a slightly bigger badge than the Cup Final ones - Cup final players shirt - Smaller badge than league shirts. Cup winners shirt - Same size badge as cup final shirts just different embroidery under badge (and of course cup on shirt). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BM1874 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Got the ‘normal’ replica of this just last year for £18 (thank you shirts of excellence) just doesn’t have the cup final stitching but it’s a great top and even in my current size it’s huge. The arms are baggy and the body is big but the collar is a bit snug still looks good though. Im guessing £98 for this but hopefully it will be about £35/40 max and quite high production numbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

queensferryjambo Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Not sure why they don't have any close up pics of the badge and text under it. Certainly doesn't look embroidered looks more like some kind of heat press flock. Hard to tell. Will have to see this up close in the shop if I am to get one. Would be a great item to get signed at the 98 Celebration night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbee647 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 If I remember correctly the Olympic kit that could be purchased over the counter had a heat pressed badge, but the cup final winners commemorative jersey has an embroidered badge im prepared to be corrected. 4 minutes ago, queensferryjambo said: Not sure why they don't have any close up pics of the badge and text under it.

Yes you are correct. The heat pressed had a felt / flock coating on them. I posted pics of the commemorative one earlier in this thread but don't have a picture of the normal club shop one.
