This authentic 1997 Republic of Ireland national team away jersey by Umbro features a bold, vibrant orange base with distinctive green, black, and white diagonal sleeve stripes—a signature design of late-90s football kits. The collar is green with white piping, complementing the Irish FA crest (FAI) on the left chest, which displays a shamrock and soccer ball motif. Central branding includes the 'UMBRO' logo above the Opel sponsor logo (a major automotive partner at the time), with the iconic Umbro diamond button placket. Made from lightweight, breathable polyester with vertical ribbed texture for enhanced airflow and moisture-wicking performance, this jersey reflects the era’s technical sportswear evolution. Ideal for collectors, retro football enthusiasts, or casual streetwear styling—pairs well with vintage denim or track pants. The garment shows minor signs of age (e.g., slight fading, small tag wear), consistent with its 26+ years of existence, but remains structurally intact and display-worthy. Perfect for nostalgic fans of Irish football legends like Roy Keane and Denis Irwin who wore this kit during World Cup qualifiers and friendlies in 1997.
