AN EXAMPLE OF STORIES TOLD
HOLY TERRORS
The HOLY TERRORS long sleeved jersey is inspired by hurling, Ireland’s tribal sport. Clubs sprung up all over Ireland, driven by families who eventually became teams, parishes & communities.
The Holy Terrors were formed around Ballinclogher Cross in the hurling heartland of North Kerry on the main road from Tralee to Ballybunion. Our Holy Terrors jerseys carries a map print of the crossroads & the GPS co-ordinates of the crossroads also.
Their red and white striped jerseys & warrior spirit struck fear into equally fearsome opponents. Now defunct, the sons of the Holy Terrors now hurl with Lixnaw Hurling Club in north County Kerry.

PLACES
PLACES remembers the military service given by GAA players all over Ireland, past and present.
ROADS
The relationship between athlete and road is profound. Athletes build a relationship with the concrete grey of the roads they pound in pursuit of their dreams, building muscle memory as they go.
Regular runners will notice that roadways all over urban Ireland carry the names of athletes, footballers, hurlers, soldiers, writers and significant Irish cultural figures whose deeds transcended their time. We drive, walk, run & cycle upon these roads every day, but we have long forgotten the people after whom they are named.
The concrete grey and arrow print of the Roads jersey salutes the daily grind of the every day athlete, incorporates the road signage that guides their route, and remembers the icons who led the way and laid the foundations of our culture.

ROUNDABOUTS

Many of these men were athletes, footballers, hurlers, writers, politicians and activists. Our jersey remember their names and beyond that , their life stories, as we run, walk, drive by these landmarks on our journeys through Irish towns and cities.

The jersey is designed in deep green and gold Kerry colours with high cotton content & and black/white contrast number panel, true to it’s 1930s roots.

TRANSATLANTIC PRINT LONG SLEEVE
TRANSATLANTIC - the story of Irish emigration to New York.
The SS St Louis was an emigrant ship that left Queenstown (Cobh) for New York in the 1930s. All Ireland winning GAA teams from around Ireland travelled aboard her to play exhibition games in the US, often training on deck in front of fellow passengers . Some players never returned home, preferring to stay and build new lives over there.
Our TRANSATLANTIC NEW YORK jersey carries a repeat replica print of the SS St Louis emigrant ship, commemorative text on the rear hem, and is designed for Irish emigrants.
Our TRANSATLANTIC KERRY jersey remembers Kerry GAA’s deep and unique friendship with New York City.
