I don't have a problem with the AIA logo apart from it being red. If it was blue it'll be fine, it's just three letters in bog standard font.

We’ve hit that time of year where the moans about our red sponsor re surface ?

we’ve only got them for another 7 seasons, so sit tight not long now until we can change ??

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the only thing that can make the red sponsor look better is to put more red on the shirt, it sticks out on the home shirt because it isnt tied into any other design element unlike the other shirts.

We need more red on the home shirt. Maybe on the sleeves, that would be nice.

TBH the other version of their logo looks much smarter (on a football kit at least) I think largely because it makes the AIA smaller (due to rules and what not) hence they use the shite font large version on our shirts.

The only downside (dependant on your point of view) is it does vaguely resemble the Jupiter Mining Corporation logo :p
Now you could argue that would be quite apt considering the way some of the smeghead supporters carry on at times. ;) it's not for me say... :D

My bigger issue has been who at the club is signing off on some of the crap patterned stuff like the current rumoured home shirt? If they want to do something "alternative" do it on GK or 3rd shirts. Just my opinion.

Anyway cast away...

Every year ??.

The logo is red. Come to terms with it for fuck sake.

The green is imo ghastly. Where's the green coming from? We've never worn a kit with green on it?
The yellow is quite nice. Always like the yellow away kits we've had. The home edition I kinda like but the pattern; whats it suppose to be a symbolism of?

Keepers have. And 3rd kit 2018/19

I've agreed but it doesn't help they AIA don't seem to mind their sponsor colour being changed on the other shirts.

It's not that they don't mind, it's changed so it stands out.
They will have an order to what is used, if possible, it will be red, then onto the other options.

Its shit but it won’t change. It just cracks me up that every year people come out with the same “looks alright but would be better without the red”.

Oh yeah me too, especially all the concept kits of the blue logo. It's like me doing a concept wedding photo but replacing my wife with Ana De Armas. It might look better but it's a waste of time as it's never going to happen (or so her lawyers tell me).

maybe they should just start selling a "without sponsor" version of the kits...?

I'm sure sponsors wouldn't be happy with that.
Part of their exposure and advertising will be fans walking around with kits on.
So if that did happen, I would expect to see them more expensive than the sponsor shirts, and sponsorship deals decrease.

I am sure Hibs do this is Scotland. Charge an extra £10 for no sponsor and donate it to charity. Can't remember exactly but remember being told they do something like that.

Other way around, you pay an extra £10 to have the hibs community charity logo on, and that goes to the charity.

So I don't think they get anything for having their charity on their shirt
