86 - 87
Havin a weekend away is quite frankly,lettin ur team mates down!
86/87 it has to be , don't give those fashionista féckers a chance to spoil your vote,
Italia 90
Italia 90 for me too actually.
The right shade of green. A bit of background stuff going on. Just the right amount of orange to liven it up. And a proper crest (which of course 86/87 has as well)
The arrogance of some people to exclaim at the perceived arrogance of others.
Cheek!
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
As an away shirt, how about a white shirt with a flamboyant Peru styled sash, green instead of red.
I feel a song coming on.
My father wore something similar

Sorry Bonnie. But here's how it is. They're both excellent, but i was thoroughly p*ssed off with that mediocre Euro 88 shirt getting as far as it did based on fond memories of a header against England and that volley.
I came to the conclusion that if all other things seem equal, the one that wasn't used at a big tournament must be better, as it got there without the benefit of fond memories.
Bring Back Belfast Celtic F.C.
86-87 for me.
No orange stripe garnish but Brady is wearing some tasty bling around his neck
A result!
Nigel has managed to vote for a kit that didn't make it (88) - but I've taken that as a vote for the Euro 88 qualifying kit.
It doesn't make a difference anyway. On a clear score of 9-5, foot.ie's all-time favourite home kit is...
...the Euro 92 qualifying kit!
A valiant effort from the 86-87 kit; wouldn't have seen it as a finalist to be honest, though it's a decent kit.
And one last reminder too of our worst-ever home kit, the Euro 2012 with the ill-advised hooped socks (and I don't much care for the vertical stripe pattern on the jersey either to be honest)
Thanks to all for taking part! Pencil in March - maybe the week before the start of the World Cup qualifiers - for the next installment, as we look at Ireland's best (and worst) away kits.
Worth noting I took some of the photos from SportsJoe.ie, which ran a similar article a couple of years ago. The results are here, with the 86/87 kit coming out tops, and the Fr Dougal kit last.
Thanks for doing that stu,brightened up a few days..
Great work Stu. Very enjoyable.
Look forward to the away kit.
I'm thinking Euro 2016 away kit could be high on the list
Folding my way into the big money!!!
Imo the top 3 in the poll were the best but I can't say I ever took much note of the shirts before unless they were rank rotten e.g. the recent dark dirty green phase and the one with the 2 huge white stripes over the shoulder.
The orange "I had a Macedonia" kit at the bottom and the USA 94 away top? That's how it will go.

Cheers Stu for the effort. Was a fun couple of weeks.

It's the journey, not the destination...
I kinda like the Macedonia kit. There's some awful charcoal kits that I've have below it.
My fondness for the 92 qualifying kit has already been stated. Feels worth mentioning the away version Alan McLoughlin scored in at Windsor Park on that night in November '93.
The gun metal grey against Wales under Stan was as drab as that era
Folding my way into the big money!!!
You knew what I meant, and that's all that matters..I'll take it as a victory.
