Ireland Home Shirt 1996/97 (L) is a classic Ireland shirt from a transitional period under Mick McCarthy, produced by Umbro for the 1998 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign. This Ireland 1996/97 football shirt reflects the national side’s mid-90s identity following the Euro 96 cycle, combining traditional colours with contemporary design elements of the era.
The green base features a tonal geometric FAI pattern, complemented by white shoulder detailing and a polo collar with orange and white trim. The Umbro logo appears on the chest alongside the FAI crest, with Opel sponsor branding across the front. This Ireland Umbro shirt captures the mid-90s international look, making it a strong example of a Ireland retro shirt from that period.
