Glentoran Football Club in association with Kukri bring you the Glentoran "130" shirt - Designed, selected and made by Glentoran supporters.

On the 7th October 2012 Glentoran FC celebrate the 130th anniversary of the club’s first ever game played in Ormeau Park, Belfast in our famous red, green and black colours.

To commemorate this historic milestone they have come up with a unique concept which they hope will involve Glentoran supporters and players alike.

Thanks to Kukri, Glentoran will take to the field for the Danske Bank Premiership clash against Portadown on October 13 2012 in a bespoke 130th anniversary shirt which will be worn once and only once by the team.

But here’s the twist. The Glentoran Gazette’s own Clifford Logan has produced six shirt designs acknowledging iconic kit styles from down through the decades.

The club want supporters to vote on their favourite shirt for the team to wear on October 13th.

The winning design will go into production at Kukri’s headquarters in Northern Ireland and will be manufactured by Glentoran supporters in yet another first.

Only 130 of these shirts will ever be made. Aside from 16 manufactured for the first team, 114 shirts will be available for purchase by Glentoran fans as a highly sought after piece of memorabilia. The shirts created through the process of sublimation which incorporate the badging, event details and squad numbers ( where applicable) allow them to create limited edition branding i.e. each shirt will be numbered 1/130, 2/130 etc. on the sleeve panel.
