Probably my favourite shirt ever. I love it, but the stripes are wrong I think,too far apart and should have 4 clean pinstripes or is ut just me?

Yeah. Attention to detail has been very poor on these. The original clearly has the stripes closer together and the edges of the spnsor touch the stripes. They're too far apart in the reissue. Was absolutely buzzing when they announced these tops and I wasnt expecting perfection but they've all had disappointing little faults. I ordered the 73/74 one because it looked fantastic but now that I've got it I'm not so impressed and I think it might be going back 😔 Edited March 31, 2022 by Batistuta87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought. Perhaps. I did think that might be a factor but can't help but feel that the differences could have been more subtle. Feels like we've missed a massive opportunity with the hype around retro strips just now and could have done this so much better. Even finding the things on the website without the direct link was difficult. If was the guy driving that project I'd have had a standalone section on the website, I'd have marketed it, if have players re-creating old photos in the strips and I'd have worked closely with the suppliers to make sure the strips were as close as physically and legally possible to the originals. But maybe that's just me. I like to do my job well 🤣 Edited March 31, 2022 by Batistuta87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was ok at Hearts and in fact earned a Scotland cap at Hearts at that time. The team in front of him never done him many favours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't a fan of Nicky Walker - as a teenager I was brought up watching big H, so the man taking his place was possibly on a hiding to nothing! But even then, I just always felt Walker was a bit more erratic. Anyway, I digress - this shirt is a classic and I'll be in there to order.

Glad you are happy, I believe Hearts have tried their hardest on the retro kits and they are always going to be up for criticism as they are never going to be the same as the originals. Modern goalkeeper shirts really need to copy the fantastic colourful ones from the 90s IMO. This years away orange keeper kit is pretty cool.

Seen a number of sites now that do retro kits, I must say I've been very impressed and they've certainly put Hearts and Umbro to shame with their recent efforts. Modern technology should be able to replicate a vintage top with no obvious flaws. For instance 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakenNotStirred Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 As I am sure most know, the Hearts direct store is releasing a new classic shirt every month for 12 months and until now lol I have not really wanted any of them. But I am very interested in ordering this one. For those who have ordered any of the others, are they quality made? And who actually makes them as their is no brand on them? Just curious, cheers. And I know it says this one will be end of August before it is ready, is that for the previous ones also and shipped at same time? Cheers.
