Hoops or Stripes

[supapapa]

Horizontal lines on items of clothing, are they Hoops or Stripes?
I have always known them as hoops.

You could say either, it's all down to the individual.

Glasgow Celtic are known as "The Hoops"

I would say stripes on normal fashion clothes but hoops on a football strip. Don't know why =s

Surely only hoops if they go all the way round

[HowardKennitby]

horizontal = hoops, vertical = stripes.

I think they're hoops if horizontal, and stripes if vertical.

Maggie's right. The Bhoys are The Hoops..... That's probably where I get it from :-)

Hoops if they go around your body.
