Warrior

Warrior came to European football in the early 2010s, carving out a brief but notable spell in a market long dominated by the established giants. The American brand, with roots in ice hockey, made its football ambitions clear through deals with clubs including Liverpool. In the Hoopster archive, Warrior's presence is modest — a single shirt from Shamrock Rovers, the Dublin club whose green and white hoops rank among the most recognisable kits in Irish football. One shirt, one club, but a useful marker of a moment when the landscape of kit manufacturing felt genuinely open to new players.
