Winston Ingram Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 My gripe with Adidas is that every training kit is the same. We have precisely the same black training gear as Aberdeen etc. Hearts strips should be easy: maroon at home, white away. Couldn't really care less what sportswear firm makes them.

Guest jambo1999 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I liked the pony strips in the 90s but really liked hummel as well but don't mention the yellow away pony strip gives me shivers down my spine horrible. I have a idea though I loved the strip hearts wore for neil berry's testimoniel it was a tartan maroon plus man u had a similar design just putting it out there.

CJGJ Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 New Balance have made a splash on Wednesday night announcing to the world that they have joined the world of football. A new New Balance Football Twitter (@nbfootball) account has gone live, and the account posted a couple of posters including a splash of some of their new ambassadors. Players from Manchester United and Man City are included, with Marouane Fellaini, Vincent Kompany, Samir Nasri, Jesus Navas and Adnan Januzaj jumping on board. Arsenal?s Aaron Ramsey is also joining the New Balance revolution, along with Australian hero Tim Cahill, who this week announced he is joining Shanghai Shenhua in China. We expect much more information to could out soon about New Balance?s entry into the Beautiful Game. No doubt there will be more team involvement soon....Warrior are a subsidiary of New Balance these days and New Balance branding will be on Liverpool shirts from next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroon tinted glasses 2 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 New balance, warrior and Asics are all linked and have been for years, I can't see why when warrior are trying to raise brand awareness in the uk that they would suddenly change the shirt branding to new balance. I stand corrected, following on a meeting this morning then then it appears NB are going to be the kit suppliers for LFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debut 4 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I have always wanted us to bring out an away strip in homage to our early colours of red , white and blue. Just a subtle red and blue pin stripe on a mainly white top , maroon shorts and white socks. Won't go down well with people who have Rangers comparison obsessions though.

Fraggle Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Those shirts look worse than the crap that produce St Middens strips!! We would be better off going down the Southampton route and bringing the strip design in house. Feck having the boggin strips from Warrior, Marcon, etc. Let some of the guys on here do it.

By The Light.. Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 bring it in house, keep design simple, get a local business involved and take all the branding profits that adidas, hummel or whoever where taking, buy wholesale and sell the kit at a lower retail price and a chance at a bigger profit. Or stay as is and renegoitate adidas/get a new big brand deal and take the tenner a shirt profit. 20,000 shirts at 10 profit each is only 200K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpikeDudley Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 isn't the 3rd kit for next season already being designed by FoH?

I'd like to see something similar to what Aberdeen have this season, but obv in maroon 'A third official strip for the Hearts team will be designed for season 2015/16 which will feature the names of every pledger who has reached the 180-point level at a certain cut-off time (to be announced shortly). The strip will be produced by the same shirt manufacturer who will be providing the team?s home and away strips, will be registered with the SFA, and is a very special way of acknowledging the commitment of the Foundation pledgers. The fan tribute strip will be worn by the team and it will be on sale, as with the regular merchandise, in the club shop.

Yep, as someone else said earlier, Rangers did a similar thing a few years back. IIRC they bought out the Nike deal and made their own kits, but instead of having no manufacturer's mark, they sold the branding rights to Diadora - it was feckin awful! I think the lesson is that if you're going to do it in house, spend money on the design, that's not the stage to skimp at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknown user Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I am not sure if we are in the position to bear the risk and the upfront costs outright on our own, with no guarantee of sales figures. I'd almost be tempted to say we were in the perfect position! If costs will be around a fiver per item the profit will be massive, that's in the region of 600% markup if selling at 35 quid. Also, we'll have a guaranteed big seller in the 3rd kit - I haven't bought one for years but my family will all be getting that one for sure, it's got our names on it. I reckon the profit from the 3rd kit alone would ensure it would be at least a break even venture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Our training stuff used to be nice, now I'm getting on a bit and don't buy it but fans want to wear Hearts colours! It's not rocket science. Sheff Utd, Swansea and Fulham all have same as us, but in colours that match the home strip. We got black and gold, basically we got to pick from a set few colour schemes. It's horrible stuff.

Best way to ensure sales, in my mind are (as per previous post few days ago - sorry for double post here): Home: Simple, plain, no surprises Away: Give us a vote (Inter style for me!) 3rd: it's got our names on All of those options would be easy ways to try and maximise sales of all three.
