Very like a Shels jersey. Wouldn't be impressed if I were a Pats fan. White sleeves on their shirts are a tradition at this stage. It looks cheap as well.

First impression on that new Pats top, it's looks like a training kit. I'm sure it looks better in them flesh, prob not the best of photos.
Might be cooler if they went with white shorts and white socks?

I dont know if anyone has ever seen Pats kit of twenty yrs ago but up to that period their jerseys were prominently red and not a patch for what pats fans are used to since that period! I am sure the likes of Dodge will vouch this!

Was it Pats or Shel's that had the full red jersey with white speckles on it? I think it was from around 94/95 season. It was like the Liverpool jersey when they were sponsored by Candy.
Yeah pats had all red in the late 80s anyway with adidas. Moved to oneills and there was red with white sleeves and also white with red sleeves worn at home quite often.
Any pats fans know if they wore blue and white in the 60s my granny used to swear they did and even remembers making bunting in blue and white!
It was Shelbourne with the mad speckled kit

Walking around Dundalk and every second person is wearing Dundalk kit.
I think I'll get myself a Man Utd top to stand out from the crowd.

That made me laugh! Although to go with traditional trends Leicester shirts might be the odd one in the mix rather than Man United..

1,300 sold I heard. Seems a very high figure but considering the effort they put into the launch and pre Xmas timing, and reducing the kids pricing from the very expensive €50 to €45 was a good move, so maybe it's not so hard to believe.
Haven't seen one in the flesh myself but I heard the quality is top class.

If Dundalk have sold 1,300 kits over Christmas that must surely be a League of Ireland record? That's incredible for a club here. There's not too many Premier League clubs selling that many jerseys in Ireland over Christmas.

The highly anticipated away jersey will be on sale just before the start of the season too. So the timing of making one shirt available for christmas and the other prior to the season start has worked well it seems. Quality is as good as ive seen with any replica shirt, no iron on sponsor or crest and the material isnt so fine that its practicaly see through. It was very evident round town today that sales of the CX+ stuff were excellent regardless of actual figures quoted.

Although the 1,300 figure is not yet confirmed, at the kit launch it was mentioned that 2k tops would be made for sale. I think a big factor in the take up is the huge local factors. From Horseware to Fyffes even the two sponsors on the back, Total Produce and DKIT, all local based companies / college, the latter are also on the back of the Drogs top.

Hmmm we did at one point have a local cab company and pub at one time - rare shirts now! A combination of things in a bit of a perfect storm have come together for Dundalk that have lifted kit and season ticket sales. The more the demand the more demand grows. The fact that demand wasnt met previous years with the away shirt and European match tickets has people getting in quick for new jerseys and season tickets. Couple of trophies here and there too helped.
Sligo going with Joma. Good choice and they do a really decent range of leisurewear too.

It's great to see a Dundalk company doing so well. Hopefully, more jobs for the town.

Absolutely. It would be great if this worked and it wasn't just another case of a company trying and failing to do something positive with league of Ireland clubs. Fingers crossed.

Good move by Horseware, you might not be far off Gufc, as both clubs also have the same smaller sponsor on the back, DKIT ;)
Good to see!
It's top quality gear as well.

Well, one thing that Drogheda currently have over Dundalk is that Drogheda's record of unbeaten league games in a row, which is at 26 games, Dundalk's best is 22. Although Dundalk ended the season with 18 league games unbeaten, so need 9 league games more to beat Drogheda in that!
Great to see CX+ Sport getting another contract. By all accounts the Dundalk kits are top quality, hopefully Drogheda's will be too.
I love the Drogs press release, referring to the company as 'local' and 'Louth based' without mentioning Dundalk once.
Swapping 'local' for the more accurate 'Dundalk' gives some great quotes:
“It’s very important for the progression of the club to forge strong bonds with Dundalk businesses"
"hopefully it will help strengthen the Dundalk economy."

What would be fantastic, is Drogheda coming out with the exact same kit design as Dundalks.

Yup Drogheda in Black and White would be funny indeed! I like Horseware's thinking in that no club is too big or small for them.
Seriously CX+ have invested in this with the employment of people specifically for this market and they are aware of the complaints about other suppliers and so far have not fallen victim to rubbish quality, standardised design, supply issues etc. They must be competitive with either price or amounts of gear supplied so other clubs will no doubt have a look at whats on offer. Warrenpoint have been pitched to so its not as if they are looking to go too big too soon so as they could end up with the afore mentioned suppliers issues.
Charlie nice guys win little just ask Cork fans of recent times (and Drogheda fans in general) :P

What period was that from Boss, I`m thinking must have been around 2007 to 08? Also didn't Drogs have a very long unbeaten home record, possibly during Lourdes Stadium days pre 1980?

Noticed that too myself, outstanding stuff...............Almost up there with the comments from the legendary Drogs council man or ex man years ago, Frank Godfrey, at a meeting, and on about lack of factories opening up in Drogheda, stands up and points north 'Don't blame me if another factory opens UP THERE'

I stand to be corrected but I think it was the 90-1 season in the First Division. Drogs lost their first game and went unbeaten the rest of the league season. A Louth double, Premier and First Division titles that year.

Amber and Black, White shirt and Blue knicks as they called them then, White and black knicks - any amount of variations of away strips...yellow and blue, green for eg

In the 1939-40 season Dundalk had a quartered design with maroon and blue colours.
The Dundalk Democrat description--light blue and chocolate-- isn't a million miles from our local neighbour's colours.

From those periods you mention, 17 games was the best between 2006 and 2007 seasons for that side. The side from the mid-late 70s did achieve 38 league home games unbeaten, starting at the end of 75-76 to the middle of 78-79.

It was indeed that season sean but actually Drogheda lost their last game and not their first game!

Ah did you really need to have a poke at us, nothing about us here but you just had to do it :sad:
We'll get one over ye in the presidents cup :cool:
Just to be clear, and I know we are way off topic, Boss so the Drogs unbeaten run of 26 league games was achieved during the 1990-91 FD season?
If so and impressive as it sounds, it cannot be compared to any team's PD record.
However the unbeaten home record in the league (single division) during the period Mar /April 1976 to winter 1979 (38 games) must be up there with LOI records though?

Yes, very true.

Of all the teams currently in the league, it is the highest, Bohemians are next at 31, Mar-1977 to Feb-1979. I have not yet checked the records of former teams in the league but would be confident in saying that it is the record. In terms of Premier Division only record, I think it might be St. Pats at 26 games between Oct-1989 to Feb-1991, just seen that Dundalk were actually at 25 games when they lost their record during last season, run was between Sep-2013 to Jun-2015.

Someones done an unbelievably horrible photoshop job with the sponsor logo.
Either that or Mr. Green have come up with this incredible sponsor print that doesn't crease with the jersey.
The sponsor is lopsided, as is the Bohs crest.

Photoshopped it to make the jersey look a bit more like a proper green, look better?

It might just be a mock-up because the jersey hadn't been produced yet. It's in the Bohs shop so the jersey in that style is clearly for sale.
I hadn't noticed that it was photoshopped but that is hilarious. I wouldn't put it past us to do the same, mind.

If I were a Bohs fan (shudder..) there's no way I'd be wearing that for several reasons. They usually have decent kits to be fair to them so not sure who signed off on that one.
