Authentic 2001 Meath GAA Jersey by O’Neills
Secure an absolute classic of early-2000s GAA history with this original 2001 meath gaa jersey manufactured in Ireland by O’Neills. Fielded throughout the dramatic 2001 Leinster and All-Ireland Senior Football Championships, this kit represents the relentless spirit of Sean Boylan’s iconic Meath sides that dominated headline Sunday afternoons at Croke Park.
Royal County Heritage & The 2001 All-Ireland Run
This 2001 meath gaa jersey captures the iconic aesthetic and robust quality that defined turn-of-the-millennium GAA apparel. Built on a rich royal green polyester base, the top is highlighted by the county’s traditional central gold band, white and gold collar accenting, and classic white O’Neills three-stripe paneling along the shoulders.
The chest displays an embroidered Meath GAA county crest on the left—featuring the ancient Salmon of Knowledge and Hill of Tara symbolism—paired with the O’Neills logo on the right and long-standing legendary sponsor Kepak printed bold across the central band. During the unforgettable summer of 2001, this design was worn during one of the most famous performances in Championship history: Meath’s stunning 2-14 to 0-5 All-Ireland semi-final dismantling of reigning champions Kerry. Worn on the pitch by iconic Meath heroes including Trevor Giles, Graham Geraghty, Darren Fay, Ollie Murphy, Nigel Crawford, Hank Traynor, and Evan Kelly, original 2001 jerseys in well-preserved condition remain among the most sought-after retro tops for Royal County supporters and 32-county sportswear purists alike.
