    FAI announce multi-year kit supply and sponsorship partnership with Castore with a re-designed crest....

    Looks like something on an imitation jersey that you buy in Penneys or Dunnes

    Reminds me of the old Jacobs biscuit tin logo from the 80's

    Thoughts??

    It's pretty meh to be honest. The last one was looking fairly dated and the current trend to to go for simpler designs but just don't think they got it right.

    Anyone know who designed it? Hope they didn't spend a fortune on a trendy design firm in London.

    I don't like the way it is filled with the green that's already on the rest of the jersey. It's boring. A good crest could sell a lot of jerseys but just like our current team, the association lacks imagination and creativity.

    Simon Harris is monitoring the situation...

    New jersey looks very plain. At least it doesn't have that horrendous "3" logo on it.

    Castore seem to be a relatively new player on the soccer jerseys market - no cheaper than the likes of Umbro, Adidas or Nike when they are charging an eye watering €105 for this in Elverys 😲

    The FAI are still without a major sponsor hence the absence of a logo this time round....

    Personally, I like this simple design. And it's good that there are no sponsor ads on a new jersey.
