Two Sides of Irish Pride: The Story Behind Our Reversible Celtic Hoodie
In Ireland, our story has always had two sides — the struggle and the spirit. The fight for freedom and the warmth of belonging. At Urban Celt, we wanted to capture both in one design. The result? A unique 2-in-1 reversible fleece-lined hoodie that celebrates Irish pride and heritage from every angle.
This isn’t just another hoodie. It’s a statement — a wearable story that combines modern streetwear with timeless Celtic tradition, designed for those who carry Ireland in their heart no matter where they go.
☘️ Two Designs, One Soul
The beauty of this hoodie lies in its dual identity. On one side, a bold black base features striking Celtic knot patterns and elegant gold Celtic knot-style stripes running down the sleeves.
Across the chest, the words “Irish Republic” stand proudly — a powerful nod to our nation’s enduring spirit of freedom. The design also features the Irish harp, the word “Saoirse” (meaning freedom), and a Celtic cross on the back, completing a look that is both classic and commanding.
Flip it inside out, and a new story emerges. The second side reveals a rich green Celtic design with white and orange knotwork stripes, the Irish harp, and the historic text “1916 Éirí Amach na Cásca” — a tribute to the Easter Rising and the courage that defined a generation.
Each side represents a chapter in Ireland’s story — one side honouring freedom, the other commemorating those who fought for it. Together, they tell a powerful tale of identity, resilience, and pride.
🔁 Reversible, Fleece-Lined, and Oversized for Comfort
This hoodie is more than symbolic — it’s built for real comfort.
It’s fleece-lined between the two outer layers, giving it warmth and a soft, snug feel perfect for Irish weather.
It’s oversized (available up to 6XL) for a relaxed, modern fit that suits everyone.
And because it’s fully reversible, you’re essentially getting two complete hoodies in one.
Whether you prefer the sleek black-and-gold look with Irish Republic across the chest, or the patriotic green side with 1916 Éirí Amach na Cásca, you can switch up your style to match your mood.
It’s fashion with function — and full of Irish heart.
⚜️ The Meaning Behind the Symbols
Every element of this hoodie carries deep Irish symbolism:
- Celtic Knotwork – representing eternity, unity, and the unbroken spirit of Ireland.
- Irish Harp – the national emblem, symbolising our music, culture, and pride.
- “Irish Republic” & “Saoirse” – declarations of identity and freedom, woven into fabric as reminders of our nation’s strength.
- Celtic Cross – a timeless emblem of faith, heritage, and endurance.
- 1916 Éirí Amach na Cásca – a salute to the men and women of the Easter Rising who shaped the Ireland we know today.
Together, these details transform a hoodie into a celebration of who we are — and where we come from.
