RobNox Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I saw a bit of discussion on the BBC Sports site tonight about Southampton's away kit, quite a lot of favourable comments, apart from some older Scottish fans who had too many flashbacks to Peru in the 1978 WC Finals. I happen to think this could be a great away strip for Hearts, obviously with a maroon diagonal band. What do others think, and can anyone with the technical ability produce a mock up?

martoon Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 As someone pointed out on a similar thread a while back, it is a sash but not Orange Order style. Airdrie's "diamond" is a more accurate representation and probably not unintentional. I loved Motherwell's mid 70's sashed shirt and vaguely recall Celtic, and their bigoted fans, having a problem with it. They are in no position to criticise any perceived symbolism at other clubs; real or imagined. Would love to see Hearts have an alternative kit version.

Negan Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 The strip going down the middle looks like a seatbelt for our potential car crash season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomethingAboutObua Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Would look good, but as many have said too many would jump on the whole sash thing. Would love to see a pinstripe design for home and away though if we're throwing out ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it's my eyes at fault there rather than my knowledge of nature.

It would play into the hands of those that refer to us as the diet huns, so while I still think it looks good, it's maybe not a great idea. A random thought that occurred to me...I think every example I've seen of this 'sash' type top always has the sash running from left to right (from the players perspective). I was thinking what if you run it the other way, from right to left, but when I envisage what it would look like, it seems crap. Is it just me?

Indeed it would, we need someone more clued up than me to mock one up. It’s a standard design and I find it weird it’s never been used. What i said in the summer was that when the FoH take over we should have some sort of vote to decide the third strip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Masonic sash’s are in a V shape, which having seen the Airdrie fans last season makes sense. As for the having the stripe the other way it looks ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that idea, for me third strip is an opportunity to go a bit left field, retain the essence of the club's identity, but do something a little bit different.

As you and an earlier poster have pointed out, the Masonic sash is actually v-shaped, so I go back to my OP and would like to see Hearts try it out as an away kit.
