Hibs 2021/22 away kit revealed as club takes inspiration from 80s and 90s designs

Hibs have revealed their new away kit for the 2021/22 Scottish Premiership season.

After launching their new home kit last month, the away has now been unveiled and is inspired by popular designs from the 90s and 90s.

Modelled by midfielder Scott Allan, Jamie Murphy and Hibs women’s star Leah Eddie, the new Joma strip is white with green pin stripes and bears the new sponsor’s logo from Utilita.

The shorts are dark green and socks white as the Easter Road club return to their more traditional away colours after black and purple efforts in previous seasons.

Creative manager Peter Burt said: “The ambition was to create a kit that drew inspiration from the popular kit styles of the 80s and 90s, whilst keeping the design fresh.

“The pinstripe design is something new for a Hibernian kit and, coupled with the cuff and v-neck detailing, gives us a clean and classic look for the season ahead.”

The new materials used in the manufacture of the strip and are explained by Hibs: "The shirts are manufactured using polyester, characterised by its quality and elasticity, in addition to being highly resistant and easy care. This fabric has excellent breathability, due to the application of a next-gen finish, giving the garment's outer layer enhanced perspiration wicking capacity for speedy evaporation, thus keeping the body dry.

“In those areas where the player requires greater perspiration support, polyester is replaced by a MESH fabric, a mesh section allowing air to enter the garment and come into contact with the skin, drying it and retaining a constant body temperature. Antibacterial treatment has also been included.”

The kit is available for fans to pre-order now ahead of going on sale later this month.
