It depends on the society, some are easier to get hold of than others, its best to talk to some members of that particular society and see where they get/got theirs from. x

I think you'll find they are Jersey stripes which run diagonally rather than vertically, type it into Google image search and have a peek. I only know coz I had the same discussion and was proved wrong!!!  Embarassed

Like admin said, yes they are hoops, but hardly anybody calls them hoops. Everybody tends to call them stripes. So bringing up toothpaste makes no sense and completely pointless.
