Bang on Umbro. Now, to get rid of that Eircom logo.
At least there's no orange blob.

I think they look a bit cheap, I didn't like the orange eircom logo on the old kits, but now these kits only have 2 colours white and a sort of blue-green... Hopefully the away kit will be better, the keeper kit looks ok I guess.
Hmmm, interesting.
Like the colour on the shirt and the lack of orange on the Eircom logo, plus the design is fairly stylish but plain. Kinda reminds me of the USA 94 shirt, which are all good things.
But as soon as you think Umbro have cracked it you see the socks!! WHITE SOCKS!! and worse still, GREEN HOOPS!!
Socks aside it looks like a decent enough effort from the trained monkeys in the Umbro design dept.
Weaseling out of things is important to learn, it's what seperates us from the animals!! Well... except for the weasel.

Is it just me or does it look extremely similar to the rugby jersey, the fai trying to associate themselves even closer to the irfu? It will be known as the aviva jersey.
It looks pretty good, even the tweak with the crest looks alright. The tracksuit looks pretty cool too, well done Umbro. Hope they change the number style though, orange trim won't sit that well with it....
'Fascists dress in black and go round telling people what to do, where as priests.....'
i think it looks the business.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Really like the look if it based on the photos & video but be interesting to see if the material's any good as some of the Umbro gear can feel quite cheap. Also hope it's not too clingy for the average fan's midriff!!
Edit: Apparently the jerseys in the photo shoot are "only samples , the material is a more old fashioned cotton & much nicer to wear than the all polyester". (http://foot.ie/threads/131689-New-Ho...=1#post1320536)

the more I look at it the more I like it
But one thing, why couldn't the tittle on the letter "i" look like a tittle rather than a fada.
Looks like a the Lawro pronunciation.![]()

Well it should have been known as the "2010 World Cup" jersey...
Not bad though. Kinda reminiscent of the first Jack Charlton/adidas shirt from 1986. A similar sequence of result on the field would be welcome too.
Once again, the Eircom logo spoils it, they could have at least moved it to the sleeve. And gold? I thought the national colours were green white and orange!
Thought the same re looking like the rugby jersey. Actually like the rugby jersey, but wouldnt go buying that. If anyone knows or can get their hands on jerseys without the logo let us know.
Umbro havent produced a good quality jersey since 2002 so i hope this doesnt have a plastic feel to it like the last one. The "anthem jacket" looks cool.
Very similar to this but i really like it.

Get rid of that stupid logo and you have a top banana jersey. Shame.
You've got no fans.
Exactly. I won't be buying another Ireland jersey until they get rid of the sponsor. It's a minor gripe, but as newrynyuk says, the colour on our national flag is orange, not gold.
You've got no fans.
Look at Italy, Look at Germany, Look at Netherlands. Your national flag doesn't necessarily dictate your national colours! I for one prefer the lack of orange. The closer to plain green and white we get the better.
Sure Ireland's national colours technically aren't even green but that's another day's work.

tbh the Irish strip is always ****e, The Irish flag is green white and orange so why not put more orange in the strip. Green is a dull color so more of the white and orange should come into play in designing the strip.
