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. Recently we cheekily asked Denis to ‘WhatIf’ for us once more, selecting an earlier timeframe, and like an Emerald […]
We now know what City will look like when a change of kit is necessary on their travels in 2017/18. So what do the HCK kitgeeks make of the new Umbro garb? *Obligatory disclaimer*: We don’t like what the current crest stands for, it is a reminder of the petty and vindictive attempt to change […]
It’s been a while since we’ve done any ‘shirt swapping’, in the sense of taking a look at the current and historical kits of another club in addition to Hull City. With the 2017/18 season upon us, we thought we’d cast a critical eye over the garb of our opening day opponents, Aston Villa, selecting […]
The Streetlife Museum has no audio description equipment at present, so to assist Tiger Rags visitors with visual impairment, we are offering an MP3 download that guides you around the room and describes all the exhibits. Matt Rudd of Absolute Radio provides directions for our recommended route, while David Burns of BBC Radio Humberside is […]
