Happy Easter all!
#25 in the @kitbliss.co.nz Greatest Templates series, the Nike Total 90. Made big waves with many nations and was also popular with the likes if Arsenal and Barca. The kit in which Healy would've scored the winning goal at Euro 2004!

#26 in the @kitbliss.co.nz 100 Greatest Templates, the Adidas Golpe. Alternate away kits in styles from the era. Keef looks a bit chilly though!

Happy Christmas everyone!
Happy Christmas Chris!
#27 in the KitBliss 100 Greatest Templates. West Germany wore it while winning the 1990 World Cup, I'm sure #NornIron would've done likewise if issued this back in 1988!
Presented in traditional #GAWA colour options, plus an alternative "Ulster Banner" coloured version.
#28 in the #KitBliss Greatest Templates series - The Umbro Nimbus. Remembered as Villa's kit during their 92/93 title charge, and also Zola et al at Parma, the #NornIron away in blue nods to the early 1900s #IrishFA kits, though we never had a yoke!
#KitBliss Greatest Templates #29, the Puma King.
Probably most familiar as Spurs' kit, so we've added a bit of green to repurpose that as #NornIron's away. For the home we go green heavy, as the #GAWA should!

#30 in the KitBliss Greatest Templates, the Adidas Real II. A bit of desperate defending from Mark Williams and Peter Kennedy in an outwardly stylish and simple jersey with a built-in undershirt. #GAWA #NornIron
The Kitbliss Greatest Templates #31 the Adidas Marseille. USSR's kit at Italia 90, but how about if it was #NornIron facing Argentina, Stevie McBride would've given them a quare chasing! The #GAWA in era appropriate colours.
#32 in the @kitbliss.co.nz Greatest Templates, the Adidas Prestige. Perhaps most famous as Argentina's WC98 away jersey, here we can see how Phil Mulryne would've looked captaining #NornIron's U21s to to the 2000 Euros with alternatives in era-appropriate colours. #GAWA

Jeff Whitley rocking the away look!
#33 in the Kit Bliss 100 Greatest Templates. Most familiar as being worn by France and Rangers. Simple re-colour for the #GAWA home with IFA logo shadow. For the away there's a more-modern-retro take on kit releases. Inspired by the lace-up collar we've gone St Patrick's blue with an old-style badge
#NornIron's Greatest Team as voted for by visitors to NIFG back in 2013! #GAWA

#34 in the @kitbliss.co.nz 100 Greatest Templates series, the Adidas Santos. Not worn by British teams, but a familiar sight on the international stage - #NornIron don't look out of place in pin-striped Adidas in the early 80s.

So, that's a wrap for the Premier League season. Three players: a champion, an FA Cup winner (as an unused sub) and a Europa League runner-up, but that's the equal fewest players #NornIron have had in the English top tier since 92/93, and their 49 appearances the 2nd least!
#35 in the @kitbliss.co.nz Greatest Templates series - the Adidas Condivo 20. Another #NornIron had (which is presented in white here) along with an imagined green home and aqua third (based on our previous away colours). The shoulder flashes take us back to the early 90s Equipment era #GAWA

As some of you may be aware, John Devlin @truecolours.bsky.social had major surgery recently and has been very unwell. As he now begins his recovery, I've decided to create a 1974 World Cup Kits digital poster that you can buy to help raise funds for his medical costs and reduced earnings. [🧵 1/2]
