In honor of St. Patricks Day I thought it would be appropriate to honor the Irish by posting their newest home kit.  Of course it’s not terribly different than the previous versions, but here you go.

 Traditional solid green with the Irish badge on the left chest and the Umbro logo on the right.  The sponsor is in its usual position of right in the middle of the top.  The nice thing about this kit is the white and orange accents throughout the top.  Overall a nice looking top, not too much to complain about here.  Standard issue for the Ireland National Team.

Ireland is one of the most beautiful countries in the world, and they are crazy about two things. Beer and football. Though I do not know their favorite beer, I do know they are crazy about their football team. Umbro has long had the task of making a nice kit for a proud nation.

This kit is a winner in my opinion. Not because of Umbro, they have made some horrible kits recently (Like the new England Away Kit), but the color scheme is perfect and the simplicity is key. Solid green, which is Ireland’s main color, and touches of white and orange here and there are all this kits has. Which makes it nicer in my opinion. This could have very easily been a kit that was marked for disaster, however Umbro pulled it off with a beautiful kit that the Irish will wear for the remainder of this year at home. 4 out of 5 from me.
