Dundalk FC have launched their new home and away jerseys for the 2026 SSE Airtricity Men’s Premier Division season in a viral video featuring local music sensation Reggie.

The kit launch marks the club's return to the top flight of Irish football and the start of a historic 100th season in the league.

The new kits were crafted through a new apparel partnership with Macron and prominently feature principal partner ZOMA, alongside long-standing partners UHY and Blackstone Motors.

The strips are steeped in the club's winning history but built to embody the defiant, fighting spirit of the town. The history of this club ensures the eyes of the league are always on Dundalk.

The launch video echoes how the fans understand the commentary, the speculation, and the expectation surrounding their return to the top flight.

But their position is clear: when the pundits and the papers have their say, Dundalk FC will do its talking on the pitch.

Speaking of the recent launch, Nita Whelan, Head of Operations at Dundalk FC, said: “As we return to the Premier Division, this launch signals our intent for the new campaign.

“In Reggie, we have the spark of local talent that we are proud to showcase, and our partners ZOMA, UHY and Blackstone Motors continue to stand with us.

“The ambition is there, and with the support of our fanbase and the local community, we are getting ready for the season ahead.”

David Kieran, Managing Director of ZOMA, added: “We’re delighted to continue as Dundalk FC’s principal partner and front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2026 season, marking the club’s proud return to the Premier Division.

“For this year’s launch, we wanted to create a video that reflects just how deeply Dundalk FC is woven into the fabric of the town - its people, its pride, and its spirit.

“Collaborating with Reggie, the man of the moment and talk of the town, brought that story to life in a way that feels authentic, energetic, and unmistakably Dundalk.

“We’re thrilled to see the new Macron jerseys unveiled. They look fantastic, and we’re sure they’ll be a massive hit this Christmas season.”

Macron also welcomed the launch, as National Manager Andrea Palilla said: “It’s Macron’s pleasure to work with such a historical club on their return back to the Premier Division of the League of Ireland and hopefully this marks the start of a great future with Macron’s support.”

The initial limited stock drop of the new home and away jerseys, along with club merchandise, are available in-store in the main stand at Oriel Park.
