Official Nike Ireland home long sleeved rugby shirt from the 1999/00 international season.

The condition of this original rugby jersey is 8/10 - Excellent. One little faint dot mark on the crest, on the upper chest. Light wear to the sponsor on the chest. One small faint mark beneath the sponsor (see photos).

The start of the professional era was disappointing for Ireland, who finished bottom of the Five Nations Championship three years in succession (1996, 1997 and 1998). Warren Gatland took over as coach in 1998, but was unable to produce immediate success.

The 1999 World Cup was staged primarily in Wales, though Ireland played all their pool games in Dublin. In a play-off, Ireland were beaten 28–24 by Argentina, marking the first time that Ireland failed to reach the quarter finals.
