Hi all,
I was just wondering when our new home kit might be launched? Any ideas? I thought it might be planned to coincide with the Euro 2012 draw in February.
They usually launch them around St. Paddy's day, so maybe in time for the Brazil match.
In saying that, we'll be well down the list of priorities with it being a World Cup year, so they might hold back until the Summer.
The sooner the better, as the current home top is awful.
Ireland kit is looking a bit dated at this stage. I'm not sure what it'll look like, but rumours that the tailored kit might be a goer. Hoping it looks like Man City's kit rather than England's.

Aye, at least with the blue, there is a chance that the colourblind might mistake us for Ireland, but with the white, and the three lions, it could easily provoke an international incident...Originally Posted by Pauro 76
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!
what are peoples favorite Ireland jerseys from over the years. My personal favorite is the 2002 world cup one, its the one I still wear to games. I did like the white one from the 94 world cup too
Its really not that complicated!!!
94 away jersey - top notch.
If we went back to Adidas there's a good chance I'd cream myself.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
For once, we can agree on something! Best jersey ever.94 away jersey - top notch.
I really really dislike the Irish home jersey(we should wear a darker green) away ones are nice tho.
1990 Away jersey for me. Always loved the White Jerseys with Green shorts.
88 Home jersey was sound also - iconic.
I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?

Liked the ECQ96 away shirt.

I'd love it if we went back to adidas. They're really putting in a lot of effort with their jerseys these days.

the puma collection of african nations jerseys are the best around at the moment.
88 Home
94 Away
No "third" kit we have ever had

Can you see us ever wearing our third kit?

we wore a grey third kit away to Wales under Staunton, looked like a training kit
Its really not that complicated!!!
It was under Don Givens actually, I think, but it did look like a training kit. Played like a training team too.
The most plausible reason for us wearing a third kit is if we are playing Ivory Coast wearing their away kit(), Celtic(
), or a Shamrock Rovers XI(
).

I wear the old black one around the house at night.
The best home top we've had in years is the one we had when we went to the Stade de France under Brian Kerr.
What I really dislike is the fact that ours and Northern Ireland's current kits are practically the same, with a little fleck of colour around the neck.
Overall, football kit makers are very lazy nowadays, too many templates. Those Puma African nations' kits are nice, but whilst they look good on Didier, I can't see Davey from Drogheda looking as good when he's stumbling out of Hill 16 before a match.
It looks more impressive in a stadium if the colours are bright, no point going towards black, it's not intimidating(look at the Dutch,Brazil and even Cork in hurling), as a matter of fact i think the home jersey could do with brightening(slightly).
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
