New Ireland Kit Launched Ahead Of 2026/27 Season
As the countdown to the new season continues, the new Ireland home and alternate kits have been launched by Canterbury.
We unveiled our 2026/27 jerseys at a special fan event at the Guinness Open Gate Brewery in Dublin last week, bringing supporters closer to the new season and a new chapter for Irish Rugby.
The evening gave fans an exclusive first look at the new kits, with Josh van der Flier, Tommy O’Brien, Jimmy O’Brien, Stacey Flood, Linda Djougang and Fiona Tuite O’Sullivan joining supporters for a celebration of Irish Rugby, the jersey and the season ahead.
The new home and alternate jerseys are available now through Intersport Elverys and Canterbury.com.
