Ray McCreesh Tribute Jersey, White
Honour the Ten Brave Martyrs: Exclusive 1981 Hunger Strikers Individual Tribute Jersey Collection – H-Block Heroes Series
Celebrate the unyielding courage and ultimate sacrifice of the ten Irish republican hunger strikers who gave their lives in 1981 with our premium, limited-edition individual tribute jerseys. This powerful collection features ten distinct designs, each honoring one of the legendary men who starved for political status in the H-Blocks of Long Kesh (Maze Prison): Bobby Sands, Francis Hughes, Raymond McCreesh, Patsy O'Hara, Joe McDonnell, Martin Hurson, Kevin Lynch, Kieran Doherty, Thomas McElwee, and Michael Devine (often affectionately known as Micky Devine).
Each jersey showcases a striking, high-contrast portrait of the hunger striker in classic grayscale against a crisp white base, evoking timeless remembrance and dignity. A bold red band across the chest proudly displays their name, while the iconic H emblem (symbolizing the H-Blocks) and the Armagh women's prison symbol (representing the parallel struggle of republican women) sit proudly on the left chest—powerful icons of resistance against criminalization and for political recognition. Green-trimmed sleeves and collar add that unmistakable Irish pride touch, with a modern athletic fit that's comfortable for everyday wear, parades, matches, or cultural events.
Crafted from superior breathable performance fabric with moisture-wicking technology, these short-sleeve jerseys deliver all-day comfort and durability. Whether you're a dedicated republican, a student of Irish history, part of the global Irish diaspora, or simply someone who values unbreakable spirit, these jerseys let you wear history close to your heart.
