League of Ireland club Bohemians have hit out at counterfeit merchandise sellers amid a rise in production of fake versions of their popular kits.
Fashionable Bohemians Kits Suffer Rise In Counterfeit Production
Irish football club Bohemians have fallen victim to the rise in production of counterfeit merchandise, with sellers trading fake versions of their popular, fashionable kits online.
Bohs have released numerous jerseys that have been popular features among fashion lovers in recent years, with their 2022-23 Bob Marley-inspired away shirt among the most memorable.
Other shirts include their Dublin bus-inspired kit from 2022 and their 2024 collaboration with rock band Thin Lizzy, along with their two jerseys released alongside Dublin band Fontaines D.C.
Their Fontaines D.C. third kit is not only a fashion statement, but it has also been key in raising money for charity. The Dublin club confirmed last week that €199,000 had been raised for Medical Aid for Palestine through a donation of their own and from the sales of the kit.
We are today making a payment of €6⃣0⃣,0⃣0⃣0⃣ to Medical Aid for Palestinians. @MedicalAidPal
This brings the total raised so far to €1⃣9⃣9⃣,0⃣0⃣0⃣from our 2025 third kit in partnership with @fontainesdublin

Additionally, Bohemians have released an ‘Oasis jersey’ for the 2025 FAI Cup.
Unsurprisingly, the top has been spotted at countless Oasis reunion gigs this summer. Plenty more are expected to be on show when the band performs at Croke Park in Dublin this weekend.
Bohemian, who are the second favourites to win this year’s League of Ireland behind Shamrock Rovers with football betting sites, have also formed a popular collaboration with Guinness to create a kit that resembles the creamy stout.
