FAI reveal new kit supplier for national team

The Football Association of Ireland has today announced a multi-year kit supply and sponsorship partnership with sportswear brand Castore. The deal, which will see Castore becoming the Official Kit Supplier and Retail Partner to the Association, begins in March 2023 with the new home kit to be revealed on Monday, March 20.

The announcement of the partnership follows the recent unveiling of a new brand identity for the FAI, the first update to the brand in almost 20 years.

Castore, who are kit suppliers for clubs such as Newcastle and Wolves, continues to expand globally, with the FAI being its first ‘national side’ in football.

Jonathan Hill, CEO of Football Association of Ireland said: "This is an exciting time for the Association as we announce a new kit partner, a new shirt and a new crest for our international teams. In Castore we believe we have found an ambitious and forward-looking partner who share our desire to move forward confidently and positively into a new era for the FAI and Irish football. Importantly, this is a significant commercial deal for the Association which helps us in our core strategic objective of creating a more stable financial base for the business and for the game as a whole."
