Fans divided as Umbro release limited edition Ireland Centenary Jersey

Irish Fans have been left divided after Umbro released a limited edition Ireland Centenary Jersey today.

The FAI 21 Centenary Boxed Jersey is available to pre-order as it celebrates 100 years of the nation's football association.

Priced at €82 for adults and €62 for kids sizes, the blue jersey pays tribute to the original Ireland kit, and is advertised as coming with a collector's box when it hits the shelves on October 1.

And while some fans took to social media to praise the jersey, others weren't so keen on the limited edition shirt.

One fan asked: "Why is it blue?".

"We don't win much but we do knock out a lovely kit," one fan joked.

But another didn't agree: "Looks nice. Great retro vibe. Historical colours. Awesome crest. Chances of spending €82 on it? Zero."

One said: "Well based on the reactions it’s clear it’s not for everyone but I love it. Does everything it needs to do for a centenary shirt and the clean cut and design draw the eye to the crest which is a work of art!".

You can view the shirt, which is available to pre-order on Elvery's, here.
