Umbro St. Patrick's Day '17-3' Jersey Collection
The standout emerald green home kit proudly displays Ireland's national colors with its vibrant green base complemented by elegant orange and cream white accents on the collar and cuffs. The contrasting orange outline on the Umbro logo creates a bold visual statement against the jersey's rich backdrop.
The alternative away kit comes in a sophisticated deep navy blue – a thoughtful nod to St. Patrick's historical cloak color. This option features luxurious gold accenting on the collar, cuffs, and branding details.
Both jerseys showcase an intricate all-over Triquetra pattern (Celtic knot) subtly integrated into the fabric through tone-on-tone printing.
The jerseys share a specially designed shield-shaped crest featuring St. Patrick's iconic shamrock emblem and the "17-3" date marking, symbolizing March 17th celebrations.
