Anniversaries are for reflection, and 2018/19 represents the tenth anniversary of City’s inaugural season in the top flight of English Football, and with it an iconic kit worn in wins at Arsenal and Tottenham that shocked the world, as did a side tipped to be the worst in Premier League history avoiding relegation. Reflection can […]
Sometimes you need to see a kit in action before you can offer an opinion, and the 2018/19 third is such a kit. So now that we’ve seen the ‘Sulphur Spring’ shorts in all their glory in the 3-2 win at Rotherham, it’s time to opinion up… Disclaimer: We don’t like what the current crest […]
The 2018/19 change kit was unveiled last week and goes on sale today, making it time for the HCK kitgeeks (and guest reviewer @MikeCarterHKR) to stop stroking their chins and offer an opinion on Umbro’s work… Disclaimer: We don’t like what the current crest stands for, this is well established, but that’s on the club […]
The 2018/19 primary kit was unveiled seven days ago, and it’s time for the HCK kitgeeks (and guest reviewer @Adz238) to spill the beans on what they make of Umbro’s work… Disclaimer: We don’t like what the current crest stands for, this is well established, but that’s on the club and not on Umbro, […]
Hull City Kits are delighted and privileged to have been asked by local Trawler memorial groups to help them auction some matchworn shirts. A first batch will go on auction website Ebay this Sunday evening from 8pm. You may recall that when City faced Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in February, the Tigers wore shirts that […]
If you’ve been scratching your head, trying to remember what kit City wore at Cardiff or Bolton, then scratch no more. Here’s a breakdown of what the Tigers have worn in 2017/18 to date. Primary kit: With Sportpesa front of shirt sponsor, Burflex back of shirt sponsor, EFL sleeve patches and numbers, and WWF patch […]
The 2017/18 third kit has been unveiled and is now on sale. The HCK kitgeeks have been stroking their chins in contemplation, and are now joined by City matchworn collector Mike Carter in weighing in with their views… *Obligatory disclaimer 1/2*: Our view on the current club crest is well established, so we won’t retread old […]
We love amber alternate shorts, and no 5-0 demolition at Derby is going to change that. They’re a great way of avoiding a colour clash, while retaining the colours we’re known for: amber and black. Amber shorts haven’t always been alternates of course, they were part of the primary kit in 1964/65. That kit, despite having […]
Phase 2 of Tiger Rags – The Fabric of Hull City AFC begins on September 4th and is entitled ‘International Tigers’, celebrating the overseas players who have come to Hull to represent the city by playing for the Tigers. At a time when migrant labour is a political and social hot topic, it is interesting […]
Last year, Denis Hurley of the ‘Museum of Jerseys’ blog helped us mentally erase Pelada’s hideous home shirt for a short while by re-imagining City’s 1993/94 kits, creating an adidas kit set using period appropriate templates, and it was ACE.
