Bazzas right boot Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 2 hours ago, Taffin said: I get what you're saying but there's plenty of colourful and different teams to choose if that's what is important to someone. When I was a kid, I wanted a maroon or a white Hearts top, as that's what the team I supported played in. I'd go as far to say that I'd have been disappointed if I'd got one that wasn't in those colours. 3rd kit by all means, do whatever you like with it. All for those being jazzy and bright. Just keep the home and away classic. Edit: I make an exception for the yellow kit, I liked that as a kid...though I probably thought it was keeper top 😂 Nah. Be a terrible decision to just stick to tradition colours. Marketing powers dictate we have to have tops that vary quite a bit. When yu were a kid, or when some of the older fok on here were kids in the 60's, 70's 80's even 90's there were few females at the game and less families. The make up of the support has changed. Not may woman or girls wore football tops. Times have changed. The home one is generally the traditional colour one. I'm not a fan of colourful strips but I understand 100 % why it's a thing and I'm at peace with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don;t think Taffin is saying much different tbh Plus it's a teeny bit patronising to suggest females want to dress like My Little Pony characters. Can we have a green camouflage stye kit for the young boys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boag1874 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I'm cool with the away top being a bit out there, not opposed to a pink kit (if that's actually true) at all but my concern would be it'll be a bit too similar to maroon... Still I guess that would mean the beautiful 3rd kit gets an outing whenever we play teams in red! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is alot of younger Girls (and guys) do wear lots of bright, colourful clothing especially around Summertime when the kits get released. Nothing to suggest EVERYONE in that demographic would but then there's the more traditional options available, I know my Girlfriend for instance probably wouldn't wear the home top through choice & doesn't really like the Inter style one, but does like coming to some home games even though she's not a die hard fan. If we brought out a full on outrageous top like say, this old Scotland top she'd maybe be more inclined to get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the second game at Dens the one substitute used was Scott Leitch and unfortunately I don't have any video of the game or photos or documentation to say what number he wore. Those yellow Asics shirts are probably the rarest modern day shirts going, never on sale to the public and full player spec. IMO beautiful kits, other Hearts fans hate them I know the guy wearing the number 15 shirt, he is an absolutely great guy and proper Hearts man by the way.
