New Dublin GAA jersey unveiled as social media reacts to long-awaited kit

Dublin GAA's new and long-awaited jersey reveal was unveiled this morning as fans gear up for an unprecedented and later-than-usual Leinster championship.

The Boys in Blues' official Twitter page announced the news with a picture of the new jersey and shorts combo.

They simply said: "It’s here. Introducing our brand new Dublin GAA jersey."

There's a few minor changes to the kit as the Dubs go a slight bit lighter on the colour compared to last season.

The downward shoulder stripes which outlined the jersey when the county became five-in-a-row football royalty have been replaced with horizontal white stripes on the sleeves.

Speaking of which, the light blue colour remains the whole way down the sleeve while the collar follows a similar pattern also with just a white line running through the middle of it.

And the shorts also run a similar style sporting horizontal white stripes on the bottom replacing last year's 80:20 navy to blue fashion with the crest remaining on the right-hand side.

The big reveal has received a very strong and positive social media reaction so far with many already forking out for the kit ahead of the 2020 Winter championship.

Dessie Farrell's men still have to finish off their League campaign playing Meath in Croke Park this weekend and Galway away the following week.

The Dubs sit fourth on the Division 1 league table on six points, two behind western leaders Galway.

The reigning champions then have Westmeath on November 7 in the Quarter Finals of the Leinster Championship.
