Original 1996/98 Northern Ireland national team home football shirt by Asics. 

Home model Northern Ireland representation over the years 1996/98produced by Asicsa in size XL, comes from a distinctive period for this national team, falling in the second half of the 1990s. It was a time of competing in qualifying for major tournaments and keeping the national team in the reality of solid, physical British Isles football.

The T-shirt was manufactured in a classic, bold design, typical of 90s aesthetics, the front is decorated with polo collar and chessboard motif, which divides the front of the T-shirt into four boxes in green and dark blue, arranged bias. The asymmetry of the design is emphasised by multi-coloured sleeves - right in navy blue, a left green, which gives the whole a very distinctive, representative character, unmistakably associated with the designs of the Asicsa from that period.

In years 1996–1998 Northern Ireland national team based its game on intensity, physicality and team organisation, competing in demanding qualifying groups. The national colours were then represented by, among others. Keith Gillespie, Aaron Hughes, David Healy, Steve Lomas or Gerry Taggart, players identified with the brave style of play and high commitment that have defined this team for decades.

The T-shirt is made of light and airy material, and the cut in size XL remains compliant with standards Asicsa, used in the representative designs of the late 1990s, offering a classic, relaxed fit.
