Chaps Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Make sure you get them for every member of your family to show the world how much you support your team in any location on the planet. Nothing looks better than a family in football tops. Try and have an argument if possible too, brings attention to you. will not get far, only me and and the girlfriend on holiday and she is on the dark side of the city.

PTBCAL Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Black or blue? It's irrelevant. it looks gash. Taken a good idea (the 70's Ajax style kit we had) and made an arse of it. Negative post shock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blondejamtart Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Come on now - at least it's a million times better than that minging canary yellow effort that the other lot across the city have chosen!

Sparky Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Overall, I like it. The only downsides IMO are: Too many embelishments (e.g. diamonds on the socks,sleeves, shorts). I guess thats the way with football strips nowadays. Cluttered chest. The UKIO bankas insignia, Hearts badge and umbro sign all clustered in one area is a wee bit much. The collar/neck-line looks a bit confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagar the Horrible Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I hope the home strip is better, i am a bit disappointed if it had the same down the back. And the blue is too dark, would have preferred azure or royal blue or even get this (MAROON)? still it's away from the boring reverse of the home strip and it might grow on me:sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Chimp Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Personally i think it's pretty crap. A poor effort at an ajax sytle top and I don;t like the collar, or lack of. i agree re: the collar. It's a few small adjustments away from being really snart, but just doesn't quite look right. The umbro badge should be on the right shoulder, there should be some form of collar and maybe some more blue on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They couldnt really put the badge and Umbro logo on the left and right sides, as this would overlap the black stripe, and make it look more silly.

Well the company that done the Craig Levein testimonial strips managed it,now they looked smart,so smart infact that I bought one and we got them made special for our supporters club football team,we might not have won as many games as we would have liked but we looked fecking smart.

sked21 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Better than that silver one? Just about to head up to Football Nation to buy that top with Robertson 9 on the back. The away top. I don't know. When I first seen it looked ace but I amgoing of it a little bit. I was thinking of getting the long sleeved one. But not too sure. Will need to see it in person.

Marmeladent?rtchen Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 it's okay but a bit training gear style about it I agree, but I do like it! Its the first time I have looked forward to next season, since the McGhee saga ended!! Cant to see the boys with it on. Does anyone know if we are the first to have the team sponsor done vertically?

hughesie27 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 It's garbage. As expected with a navy blue colour:S. It's not the colour of the national teams top so doesn't really bide with the whole scottish identity crap they are trying to flog us off with. Let's hope the home effort isn't just a mirror of it.

Jambo66 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I like the general idea and colours, but I think the strip should've been on the back too; looks a bit unfinished/amateurish to me because it's not there. And WTF are the 'wings' on the back about anyway? Won't be buying it, but I don't buy strips anyway If I did, I would be a wee bit disappointed in that - probably won't come cheap either. The problem with that would be the names and numbers. It would work ok for a name like Nade, but what about anyone with a long name - it would need to be in two colours.

Suppose some well-paid boffin could come up with a way of fixing it. Hope the strip grows on me, just think it looks a bit daft at the moment.

Nelly Terraces Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 To put things into context, I feel our effort for this year compares favourably to that of lesser teams choices of putrid highlighter pen coloured cheap tat. Even the model wearing it in this photo looks rather inferior and somewhat lacking in taste. I've a feeling this little number will fall to pieces by around Christmas, as their previous efforts have followed that longevity schedule.

Nice of Hibernian to add 'stink lines' to their model thus giving the average consumer a clearer idea of what it will look like when worn in their rat-infested council flats.
