Magee of Donegal have released a retro Donegal jersey of the county's most momentous occasion
Donegal defeated Dublin 0-18 to 0-14 at Croke Park on September in 1992 to win the All-Ireland SFC for the first time. The side was managed by Brian McEniff and produced a stunning display to overcome the Leinster champions, who were heavy favourites to land Sam Maguire.
On the day, Donegal were sponsored by Magee Tailored and the jersey is a much sought-after collectors' dream.

"Relive the glory," Magee posted "Donegal's All-Ireland triumph in 1992 is celebrated with a limited release of Magee Tailored retro jerseys. Perfect for fans of all ages, these jerseys are a piece of Irish sporting history. Available in kids and adults in our Magee of Donegal store only. Don't miss out!"
Donegal went on to repeat the trick when they beat Mayo 20 years later, to win the 2012 All-Ireland. That team was managed by Jim McGuinness, who is back at the helm with the contemporaries opening their Allianz League Division 1 campaign at home to Dublin on Saturday, 7:30pm, at MacCumhaill Park in Ballybofey.
