    Unbroken, untouched, normal sized, green hoops with no outlines or any * like that on them.

    It's not very difficult to make a kit that the fans will be happy with. Less is more.

    I think that kit's acceptable considering this/last seasons effort. Still confused at why we only had the 2012/13 kit (thin hoops) for one season. That's been one of our nicest yet.

    if their isn't a noticeable difference between home tops every season then people won't buy the new ones. A plain green and white hoops is good every few seasons but they do need to add something to keep sales up

    I still like the leaked one. I hope that is actually the shirt.

    It might be nostalgia on my part but I do like it.

    Change the Celtic strip to Green and White stripes instead of hoops.
    That way, when i wear it i won't look like a Fat *. :icon_mrgreen:
    Even though i am one.

    If they bring back a collar it should be the same one as that, with hoops on it.

    Di Canio looked cool as * in it

    I would love the hoops to be the same every year, maybe change it up and make them thin sometimes like in 2012/13. Leave the away and third kits for experimenting.

    If we could have this as our top, I would be the happiest man alive.

    A had those white Di Canio boots, belters! Then some * stole them and a never seen them again:54:

    They actually sell that old Celtic top in the Celtic shop, or at least they did last year not sure if they still do. Think it's £20. Going to get it.

    There hasn't been a simple one since 2007. In the future you can also change the material and the shade of green, add a collar or put a pattern in the Hoops like the 11/12 home kit which wasn't too bad.

    Do you want to see * like the tiny broken up hoops on the current top or the outlined hoops on this leaked top?

    The Hoops are not "broken" at all - there are different thickness of hoops - much the same as a hooped earing is different in thickness from a tyre. What makes a hoop? A line that continues at 360'.

    Hoops are hard to design around - if it was the same as the (example) Lisbon Lions type kit every year, things would be pretty boring.

    That CR SMITH kit above has different thickness of Hoops.

    Are those "broken"?

    Aye, it's decent.

    I've only really ever disliked one type of Celtic kit in recent years - any of the hideous yellow monstrocities that were created, especially that one a coupla years back that looked like it had tyre skidmarks over it (Ki wore it).

    I know they are full Hoops but you know what I meant. Each 'Hoop' is made up of seven small hoops which just looks a bit *.

    I don't see how it would be boring either. If you look back out our previous home kits, 2012 was the first time we decided to * about with it and we've decided to carry that into this season and now it looks like we're going to do it again.

    We can take the 1984 kit as the starting point of you wish, the first kit with a sponsor printed on the front of it. All of our kits since then have been very basic and simple with the occasional design inside the green hoops, until 2012. And we are now about to have our 3rd * Jersey in a row by the looks of things.
