This evening the Notre Dame football program revealed the Shamrock Series uniform, designed by Under Armour, that will be worn at this year’s game in San Antonio, Texas.
While last year’s all green Shamrock Series uniform gave a nod to Fenway’s “Green Monster,” this year’s olive green and gold uniform will pay tribute to military tradition and Notre Dame’s opponent, Army.

And, of course, another helmet gets added to the collection …

This year’s Shamrock Series helmet includes a hand-painted illustration of the motif above the Basilica doorway – God, Country, Notre Dame. This illustration also appears on the sleeve of the jersey.

With this year’s game being the last game of the Shamrock Series, what do you think? Is it a solid design choice? Or is it hideous?

Cheers & GO IRISH!

I think this is my favourite Shamrock uniform yet. The font on the jerseys is solid, I love the tip of the had to the army with the OD (olive drab) green, and the helmets themselves are a work of art. Easily the best effort yet from Under Armor, and right up their with the all whites from 2013 as the best imo.
