eduardo.j Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I thought I read somewhere that it's the badge of McRaes battalion during the war? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory House M.D. Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 When did Hearts first have strips with the badge on them? (1970s?) From where (and when) does the badge on the new strip originate? I like this strip (and badge) but I also think the current hearts badge is incredible. I realise this is likely to be a one season change but I'd have preferred this tribute badge to have been limited to the away strip. Nonetheless, I'll be buying a large number of these strips. 1874 we had a heart. 1911 we had a heart with a castle in it according to historical football kits.

Brian Badonde Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I said at the start of the season I was getting too old for football tops and this season was my last and I would only buy for the wee man. One more year cant hurt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queensferryjambo Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 When did Hearts first have strips with the badge on them? (1970s?) Think the first type of logo design / badge rather than a plain shirt was seen on this shirt - Here is a selection of badges on players shirts from he 1970s to the early 2000s - apart from the badge re-design 98/99 there isn't much of a difference over time.

Pants Shaton Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Could it be the badge the club used in that period? Presumably that's true, I just wondered if someone could confirm that. Also pretty sure that, with the exception of the plain white heart on very early Hearts strips, we didn't have badges on our strips until pretty recently.

Bowmans_Boot Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I love the Argentina style away top but I wish we had an away strip of red, white and blue as a nod to our tradition and history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the white and maroon strip does. The St Andrews Cross in our badge covers that brief period of our clubs history where we swallowed up another team and used their colours for a wee bit.

There was at least 3 different badges before that one and 4 if you include the strip when we bought over St. Andrews. We had the plain heart on our original kits, the aforementioned st. Andrews, the 1911 kit would appear to have a badge of somekind which I am assuming is an early version on the badge Tommy Walker is seen sporting in a photo of him as a player. In fact, looking it up on HFK, we had a logo/badge on our jerseys for the first 9 years of our existence. After that we never had another badge for 18 years (1911). I'd be tempted to say that the 1911 kit is wrong however as Tommy Walker is sporting the badge that is on it but none of the strips that run with his playing career have badges on HFK. The first time we used the HMFC heart according to this was 1977-1982's famous strip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJGJ Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 At what point does 'history' start ? Clubs evolve and change, we did, clubs like Manchester United did, all sorts have clubs have changed name, colours etc through the ages. There is no fixed point in time after which nothing can change. Tradition is fantastic but let's not let it blind us from change and innovation. We may love our current crest but it has not been with us since day one for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redm Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I'd be surprised if Adidas are genuinely furious about this leak. It's done them no harm whatsoever, raised interest and anticipation and if we're ripe and ready for a teaser campaign. You'd almost think these things happened on purpose. Player modelling shots are a wee bit different right enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
