This was the first kit.
The colours have always been green/white/red but which colour was the primary strip has changed. We had a couple of years which were mostly white with green and red trim. And then the one attempt at red as a main colour.
More recently, it's been harder to get kits with all 3 colours so it tends to be just green with maybe some white.

CX+,who are kit suppliers of Dundalk & Drogs will be wound down before the end of the year.

This was in the pipeline from last year. Apparently they want to focus on the Horseware side of the business. Seems mad because they are selling a huge amount of gear locally. They’ll be a loss to a lot of junior teams that they supplied locally aswell, not to mention job losses.
Wonder is it possible that someone might take on the brand/contracts, there is another sportswear startup in Dundalk that could get a boost in the niche markets if they took a punt. Wouldnt be a bad investment for an established sportsware manufacturer either to take over the brand and keep it going as a branch of their own company, wishful thinking I suppose to keep the local company and jobs going. It was establishing itself nicely with good quality gear and a nice catalogue of designs too so its a pity. If it was raking in the cash I cant see Horseware culling CX+ mind or not 'franchising' it out somehow. Capacity at their premises in Dundalk is flat out just on the horseware and its the main earner in the portfolio, having another site just outside the town might have been costly and with no room to transfer production to their HQ. Irish Athletics was a good contract to have, Dundalk FC sales were solid. Dont know about Drogheda and Coleraine and I have no doubt they could have expanded their clients. Does the Rambo rugby gear still exits or was that ended before?
Limerick away. Same design as home, just in red. Shirt itself is fine, but plain red isn't a colour I associate with Limerick.
The original Limerick FC, 1937 version, played in red-and-white stripes?
...Schwanholz, Herisau: a little bit of heaven...
Yeah, red and white stripes. And that was an away kit about 10 years ago too, but not plain red.
The Limerick blue is actually Waterford blue. They bought Waterford's shirts when WFC went out of football in 1941, changing at that point from red and white stripes.
Our third jersey has been released this morning.

Is now a good time to mention Longford getting their colours from Bohs?
Fran Fields ascended Errigal in the dead of night and stole our colours FROM THE GODS THEMSELVES.
