Republic of Ireland National Football Team - Kit

Kit

Traditionally, the team plays in a home strip of green shirt, white shorts and green socks. The second strip is usually the reverse of these colours, although there have been exceptions, such as an orange shirt in the late 1990s.

Currently, the kit is supplied by Umbro, and has been since 1994. In March 2009, Umbro signed a deal with the FAI to keep them as kit suppliers to the team until 2020.

Previously O'Neills and Adidas made the team's kit. Shirts carry the logo of telecommunications company 3 across the chest as per terms of a sponsorship agreement, but in all official international games, as per FIFA law, this advertising is absent.

Squad numbers are either white with an orange trim, as is the case with the home shirts, or green with an orange trim. At the bottom of the numbering there is a logo of the FAI.

There is also a limited edition grey shirt available. The team have only ever used it once and that was in a 2–2 draw with Wales on 17 November 2007. A black jersey with a green stripe across the chest was worn in the final game of the 2011 Nations Cup against Scotland and in a friendly which Ireland won 2–0 against Italy in Liège, Belgium.
