This is the new Galway United 2022 Home Kit designed in-house and produced in Ireland by official sports-wear partner O’Neill’s Sports.
Honouring the historic status as the ‘City of Tribes’ and heralding the club motto, ‘It’s a Tribal Thing’ the brand new Home Kit feature-rich Celtic-inspired Tribal Iconography celebrating Galway and the diversity of its people.
In terms of the design, this is not the first time a Galway team have adorned gold in their kits. The very first Galway teams represented their county in blue and gold. The colour gold is also historically significant appearing in both the Galway City and County Coat of Arms. This custom design features at its centre the Claddagh Ring, a tribute to the club’s origins in the Claddagh as Galway Rovers FC. Over 400 years old The Claddagh Ring symbolises Friendship, Loyalty and Love. Pillars of Galway United Football Club and The Galway United Friends Coop.

The stylised image of Princess Galvia, mythical princess and daughter of the mythical King Breasal, from which the city allegedly derives its name, is featured on the back of the kit. A-blazoned across the back of each player’s shirts will be a League first, Rainbow Trimmed Player numbers. A statement of the clubs continued support for LGBTQ+ rights and a symbol of their core message. All Tribes Welcome. Another subtle detail on the back of the shirt is the Galway United Friends COOP crest which sits proudly below the neck.
